Explain your plan

[edit]

I'm active in Spanish Wikipedia since 2006. There I am admin since January 2016. I edit about philosphy and world religions and give maintenace actions. Besides I'm an active member of WMMX and member of Affiliations Committee. In 2015 my personal computer was stolen and my chapter lent me the one that was purchased thanks to a WMF annual grant in 2012, I've used such machine since then but it got broken like three months ago and so far I can't afford a new one. Obviously the chapter's machine will be repaired but if I get one of the WMF harwarde I could get back the WMMX machine to be used for another member needed of it. So we will be benefiting two mexican editors. My edition average has decreased since the chapter's laptop broke, because I only have a tablet in my home, but editing from a tablet is still a pain in... (you know what I mean). Besides, participating in WMMX editathon it's dificult too because I depend of other's computers when the place has not own machines. So, my plans are to start editing again in the same rythm as I used to do it and creating new articles at late night as I used to do it ;).

Work you're proud of

[edit]

Show us (through links) some of your best Wikimedia work, on or off wiki, to help us get a sense for the kind of work you do. (no more than 3 or 4 links at most, please.)

  • I'm really proud of the article of Hildegard of Bingen in es.wiki. I spent 2 years to take the article to Featured Article and it was needed to buy and get many books, both digital and physical, and reading a lot of info.
  • I am founder of the WMMX chapter. I love that community, they have become my friends and my family far from home.
  • I was part of the WMMX team that hosted Wikimanía 2015. That was a really hard work!
  • I'am happy of being part of the AffCom and helping the whole international community to grow up.
