A British user (With German identity) who has made numerous anonymous contributions to Wikipedia over the past decade, mainly the result of losing access to my previous account before that point. Contributes primarily in English (British, U.S.) and German, may also provide light assistance in other languages too.
Why Broken Viking? My identity of faith is solidly Norse, but I was unfortunate enough to be bought up under extremely oppressive and destructive application of a different faith which sadly has had permanent, life-limiting consequences.
Presently one of the volunteers cloning dumps of the Wikipedia database (Mainly the pages-articles-multistream dumps for non-English languages) over to Archive.org on a quarterly basis, initially as a manual process but intending to automate this at some future point.
Personal interests include Orienteering, Cycling, travel and languages, and an absolutely unshakeable passion for French high-speed trains. Vive le TGV! :-D
