Hi I'm Albin, I'm mostly active on Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons but I also spend my time working on Wikimedia software (everything from Mediawiki core to user scripts). I mostly contribute to cultural heritage, climate, and orienteering/sports related content. I'm also known to work on maps related tools and infrastructure as well as on Wiki Loves Monuments. In 2020 Ainali and myself started doing a live Wikidata editing show on the Wikipedia Weekly Network. I'm also a founding member and administrator (contact person towards WMF) in the Wikimaps User Group.
I'm also abbe98 on Freenode, Telegram, and Matrix. Don't hesitate to reach out.
