Me in 2022.

Hello world, from Buenos Aires, Argentina! I'm a philosopher by training and a web developer by trade, specialized in MediaWiki, the software of Wikipedia. I contribute to the Wikimedia movement since 2008, mainly to Wikipedia, Wikiversity and MediaWiki. At first I did mostly content, but nowadays I'm more into software (templates, Lua modules, JavaScript tools and MediaWiki extensions). I currently work as the lead developer at Appropedia, the sustainability wiki.

If you want to contact me, feel free to leave me a public message or send me a private email. Thanks!
