My background is varied professional experience in the translation industry. Originally from Latvia, I have also lived in Estonia and elsewhere in Europe for several years and accordingly I speak Latvian, English, Russian, conversational Estonian and some German and French.

On Wikipedia, I have contributed mostly to Latvian Wikipedia where I used to be an admin from 2005 until 2012 when gave up my role voluntarily and relinquished the admin rights. See also my accounts on Meta and English Wiktionary.

My bookmarks

Here are some articles I have found in Wikipedia. I used to add them to my watchlist but it has grown just too much to be able to follow and differentiate between the stuff that really needs following and simply great articles that most possibly are already watched by knowledgeable Wikipedians.

Some of these articles simply crave for attention, others are a great read, and for some of them I have no idea why I've listed them. :)

This list is not necessarily alphabetised or otherwise prioritised but it should be. Or maybe it is. Nor this list should be regarded as an accurate reflection of my world view or interests. This is merely a fraction of it. Or maybe it isn't related to me at all.

I really hope this doesn't end up being similar in size to Special:Allpages...

Zumwalt-class destroyer
The Zumwalt-class destroyer is a class of large guided-missile destroyers of the United States Navy. First commissioned in 2016, the ships have a distinctive appearance, with an inward-sloping tumblehome hull designed to reduce their radar cross section. The Zumwalt class uses an integrated electric propulsion system that can distribute electricity from turbo-generators to drive motors or other ship systems and weapons. With a research-and-development cost of $9.6 billion, the ships were designed to require a smaller crew and to be less expensive to operate than comparable warships. The program was originally planned to include thirty-two ships, but cost overruns led to successive reductions and only three vessels were ultimately built. This photograph shows the lead ship of the class, USS Zumwalt, transiting the Atlantic Ocean in 2016 during acceptance trials with United States Navy's Board of Inspection and Survey.Photograph credit: United States Navy
