Use my Talk page for contact. Pages I've edited: Binary-code compatibility ARM architecture (and related) Android (operating system) (and related) Firefox (and OS and related and other browsers) – I have contributed bug reports and translation fixes but no code. Julia – Possible semi-COI – So far I haven't contributed meaningfully to the language itself, but I plan to as a "volunteer"[1] and think I'll remember to update here saying so... Stopped editing Julia, it just seems too much trouble (EDIT: Began again at first just with small changes). I guess editing programming language articles is just difficult to do right. Might apply to technical articles in general, where the best sources are primary ones. I ended up deleting in 2015 edit most of the stuff I had added to the Julia article, halving the article... and I see in 2020 the article has grown to be a bit larger than it was then (probably in large part because of me). I meant to do something with the deleted stuff, add to a wiki Julia book maybe, but haven't got around to it. I still think some of the stuff, e.g. on assembly code belongs in the WP article, so could selectively put stuff back? Ubuntu – I have contributed bug reports and translation fixes but no code. See the pattern...? For people who do not know Usenet, comp.arch is a newsgroup there, for computer architecture – one of my interests, and in general computers/software, which is my field. I've been thinking if I should declare some conflict of interest (see: WP:COI). Everyone has biases, I try to be very aware of them, not sure I should declare them... I can just say I've never worked for a computer/electronics hardware company, taken money from them (I did work for pre-WiFi direct-sequence spread spectrum wireless reseller). I have used and do like some software (and have contributed to in non-COI way?) and possibly "dislike" some other software but try to edit all articles in a non-biased way... At least I'm not a reseller of any software (I did work for the pre-WiFi wireless embedded computer reseller at the time; and they sold my software, see above), only done work-for-hire software development (none of which covered in Wikipedia) and DBA/admin work.
