About me
TBC.
My work
As Wikimedian since 2004, I mostly edit articles or listen-coordinate projects. I've been the creator and lead listener-coordinator of the Graphic Labs and Map workshop, which created or improved 15,000+ images and maps. We pushed with few others for Wikipedia Cartographic guidelines now widely used. I had nearly similar role on the CJK Stroke Order Project, the Ancient Chinese Characters Project (~15,000 files), and the Wikimedia France's rapid audio recording system LinguaLibre.org. My encyclopedic contributions are various, with a track record on Chinese culture, contemporary social conflicts and human rights. I was a lead member of the 2020 Covid Task Force. I've been administrator of Wikipedia FR and Commons between 2005 and 2008, a status I returned when my activity lowered.
I attended various real life Wikimedia events such Wikimania ('07,'13,'14,'17,'18,'19,'21,'22), Hackathons ('13,'14,'15,'16,'17,'18,'19,'22,'23), Wikiconvention francophone ('16,'22).
