Intro in a nutshell

[edit]

Hi,

I'm a Hungarian Wikipedian, born in 1978. I'm interested in languages, informatics, literature, sciences, mathematics, social sciences, psychology, music and many other things.

Announcement & request

[edit]

Please only ask me questions if you have sufficient grounds to believe that I may be the best person around to answer them. Please don't ask me to write or expand articles about this or that topic. Recently, I have little time for Wikipedia and I prefer to spend it spontaneously. Sorry everybody!

Some pages I like (or I find useful/significant)

[edit]
… and if you've had enough serious stuff, check out Uncyclopedia or Encyclopedia Dramatica.

Articles that have been deleted since: List of countries by compactness, Harry Potter in translation series, List of characters in translations of Harry Potter, List of wizarding terms in translations of Harry Potter, List of polydactyl people, Hungarian jokes, István Dabi, List of movie clichés by genre, List of trivia lists, List of people who died in their thirties, Gallery of confusable flags, English words with uncommon properties, List of landmarks, Abolitionism (bioethics), List of virtual communities with more than 100 million users, List of mathematical concepts named after places, List of statistically superlative countries (although it could be considerably expanded from the lists of countries)
