I am active at en.wikipedia since December 2003 and was active even before at nl.wikipedia. During this period I have been very engaged in the fighting of vandalism, editing, categorization, and increasing the connectivity between articles and categories. I have also written and substantially contributed to many articles. Here is a small choice of my writing and editing in English:
