Hello, I'm Robin Pepermans and I live in Flanders.

My work mainly involves the process of wiki creations:

• I work mainly on the Wikimedia Incubator (sysop, bureaucrat, importer)
  • A bot to help me :)
• I am member of the language committee
• I help importing new created wikis from Incubator to the new wikis
• I'm sometimes active on Translatewiki.net (translation is required for new wikis..)
• I have a toolserver account that will be used for tools for Incubator etc
• I have commit access to MediaWiki, which I also use for an extension for Wikimedia Incubator (for the test wiki system)
  • Recently (mid-2011) I have become active in improving RTL support of MediaWiki.
• I am a global sysop

A little wiki history... First, I was an active contributor on the Dutch Wikipedia (first edit on 23 March 2006). Around February-April 2007 I discovered the "wiki-world" outside of Wikipedia (I found Meta, Incubator and Translatewiki), where I slowly became active. Since July/August 2007 I am almost inactive on the Dutch Wikipedia. Now I occasionally edit the Dutch Wikipedia, English Wikipedia and English Wiktionary.

You can visit my website or my blog although there's not much (yet).

Languages

See right for Babel info. My native language is Flemish (Dutch as spoken in Flanders). Level of English is quite good thanks to the interwebs. Other languages are French and German, but to a lesser extent (trying to improve though). Afrikaans also quite good thanks to similarity with Flemish/Dutch (but only af-1 because I don't often come in contact with the language). I learnt Latin and a bit of Ancient Greek as classical language, but forgot most of it :) I want to learn more languages, but I can never decide which one to learn first :) In any case, I have some knowledge of other Germanic and Romance languages due to their similarity with languages I know.

Username

• My username is a contraction/blend/whatever of SPQR (I was interested in Roman history) + Robin (my given name).
• I have SUL enabled.
• Bestätigt auf die deutsche Wikipedia

How to contact me

• Just put a message on my talk page here. I can answer within a few days (if longer, I'm on vacation).
• You can email me.
• On IRC, I'm mostly online at #wikimedia-incubator, and I can also be found on #mediawiki-i18n and #mediawiki
