I'm the founder of "Men against Rape (France). I love opera which led me to write a draft bio of the Spanish soprano, Sylvia Schwartz. I love sailing and am re-building in our garden an 11 m. wooden racing yacht of the Six Metre class which was built in Berlin in 1935.
I am an editor working for the United Nations in New York, I have Arabic and English as working languages. I hope to be able to contribute to the Wikipedia project.
Wikipedia can well be called the Modern Digital World Library. For the first time in the history of civilization, humans have managed to create a repository for the world's knowledge managed by the world's people. This constitutes a revolutionary step in the way we maintain our stores of knowledge; from a few sheaves of papyrus, to parchment and ink, to palatial libraries owned by wealthy emperors, public libraries constantly threatened by vandalism and neglect to finally having a common place for collecting information. I feel obliged to help protect and improve this most wonderful endeavor.
I benefit greatly from wikipedia as a "first source" for further investigating literature on issues I'm not familiar with (I'm an evolutionary biologist), and would like to contribute. I've studied cetaceans a lot in the past, so am keen to have a look at those.
I love to learn, and enjoy contributing. I’m an editor who has worked as an engineer, architect and more–and trained in the arts. Active since August, I have much to learn about how things are done on Wikipedia.

I joined once I noticed the severe need of clean-up for history-related articles. Currently working on the article related to mummification! Glad to help in any way I can, so please drop me a line if you have any ideas or suggestions. Could always use collaboration.
