Revision as of 17:44, 30 March 2007
I am very busy IRL at the moment, so I'm taking a vacation. I'll try to find the time to drop by, but any messages sent to me might be unread for a while. Thanks for your understanding.
Greetings, traveler. You've found the home of Valentinian.
Who am I? Well, my real name is Jesper Valentin and the user name Valentin was already taken by my brother :-) I'm a 31 year old Danish male living in Odense, the third largest city in Denmark. I made my first edit on the English Wikipedia on 3rd May 2005.
I study Contemporary History and English at the local university, the University of Southern Denmark (formerly known as Odense University.) In my spare time, I work at a major Danish furniture store.
Wikiwork
What am I doing here? I'm one of those Wikipedians, who don't make a lot of publicity about themselves, but who're nonetheless pretty handy to have around - just to say so, myself. :) I write articles like everybody else, but you might also consider me a bit like a janitor (although I'm no administrator).
I'm an active member of WikiProject:Stub Sorting and an awful lot of my edits relate to stub sorting. Information should be as accessible as possible and in order to achieve this it needs a little bit of sorting and a little bit of order. I came across WP:WSS by chance but I stuck around. My articles primarily relate to Denmark (including politics, history and heraldry) but also a number of other topics. I've joined WikiProject:Military history after realizing how much of the relevant Danish material is either non-existent or very incomplete. I have also spent much time on WikiProject:Heraldry and vexillology and I run the Denmark Portal. Another long term project is an attempt to bring a bit of order to the already existing lists of Danish cabinet ministers, to add the missing lists, and to give each of these politicians a short (stub) article, and to give the Spoken Wikipedia a try.
I speak Danish, English and a fair amount of German (be warned: my German grammar is getting rusty). I understand a fair amount of Norwegian, some Swedish, and a little Dutch. Alas, I am unable to write the three latter languages.
If you don't agree with something I wrote, feel free to drop me a line. I make mistakes too, and all well-argued criticism is welcome. You may have access to other sources than me.
If you notice that I've still not fulfilled a request you gave me long ago, this is merely a result of the fact that I currently have to focus all my time on writing my thesis. Several months of work still remains, but once that's done, I'll be very happy to look into these topics again. Regards. ValentinianT / C 23:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Collect a list of county mayors for all Danish counties (since 1970)
To-do-list for this task: Århus, Bornholm, Copenhagen County, Frederiksborg, Funen (dates are missing), North Jutland, Ribe (dates are missing), Ringkjøbing (dates and years are missing), Roskilde, South Jutland, Storstrøm, Vejle, Viborg, West Zealand
Create more articles about Danish politicians, fix succession boxes etc. etc.
Investigate more cases where a country has no national stub tag. If I find sufficient material, I'll propose these templates.
Add more material to the article on Hærvejen, the Danish army road
I'm a member of Venstre (the Liberal Party, the largest political party in Denmark). For the last five years, our chairman has been the Prime Minister of Denmark. It's the first time Venstre has led a government since 1975.
Everything relating to the so-called Byzantine Empire. The Eastern Roman Empire was clearly the most advanced country in medieval Europe, but has been almost completely erased from Europe's collective mind after centuries of anti-Greek propaganda, which is simply disasterous. The country is incredibly interesting.
How do you know that you live in a democracy? Well, if one political party has won power; then lost it again and given that power to another party; and this party in turn loses it and gives it back to the first party; and all this happened peacefully. That's when you know you live in a democracy.

If all printers were determined not to print anything till they were sure it would offend nobody, there would be very little printed.
