This user wants to compile and preserve the sum of all human knowledge. This user has been on Wikipedia for 19 years, 4 months and 10 days. This user was ranked 1,790 on the list of Wikipedians by number of edits on January 2016. inclThis user is an inclusionist. This user is ranked 98 on the list of Wikipedians by articles created.

Welcome to my userpage. My name is Emilio and emijrp is my nickname on the Internet. I'm from Spain and I like the idea of compiling the sum of all human knowledge and its preservation. I joined to English Wikipedia in 2005 collaborating regularly. As of 2019, I have contributed more than 180,000 hand-made edits and over 30 million bot edits to all Wikimedia projects. In Wikipedia, I enjoy creating stubs, lists and programming bots. I'm also active on Wikidata (see userpage) and Wikimedia Commons (see userpage).

My interests include arts, astronomy, cinema, cultural heritage, archives, libraries, museums, digital preservation, politics, reading, travelling, history, photography and many more. I am always discovering new interesting topics.

I am not very fluent in English, so please help me to fix any mistakes in my userpage. Thanks in advance.

You can reach me at emijrpgmail.com or using this form. Also, you can use my talk page.

Coverage

I work to improve the coverage of Wikipedia and decrease bias. I have started over 4,500 stub articles (list), mostly about municipalities and other geographical entities, monuments and biographies. Also I create pages about archives, libraries and museums in any country. I think that any institution that preserves human knowledge deserves an article in this encyclopedia and thousands of them are still missing. Let's work on it.

Currently, the largest project I'm involved in is an estimate of how many articles are needed to cover the sum of all human knowledge. I wrote the "Wikipedia:There is a deadline" essay about the conservation of cultural heritage and knowledge preservation.

Digital preservation

Because I was tired of seeing dozens of wikis disappearing from the Internet, I founded WikiTeam in 2011, a project to archive wikis. As of January 2019, WikiTeam has preserved over 250,000 wikis, several wikifarms (Wikia, ShoutWiki, Referata, Wikkii, etc), regular Wikipedia dumps and 34 TB of Wikimedia Commons images. We use Internet Archive to upload all the backups and there is an index in WikiApiary.

Lists

I enjoy starting lists. It is an easy way to check completeness on any topic and find red links, candidates for new articles. Following, there is a sample of lists that I have created in these past years. The pages may have evolve later with the contributions of many people (I hope so).

Fotografie

I am an amateur photographer who likes to take pictures mainly of monuments, museums and landscapes. Currently, I have a Nikon D3100 that produces good results and previously I used several compact cameras. Here are some photo examples, see more in my gallery in Commons (category) and Flickr account (collections and albums).

Forschung

WikiPapers main page.

I always liked to generate statistics of wikis. In 2010, I created StatMediaWiki, a tool for statistical analysis of MediaWiki wikis. Previously, I had developed dozens of scripts for rankings and charts in the old Toolserver and currently in the new Wikimedia Labs.

Later, I started to read academic publications about Wikipedia and soon I ended with a ton of links to papers. So in 2011, I launched WikiPapers, a compilation of literature regarding these online communities, which currently indexes over 1,800 papers and many datasets and tools.

I have published several papers on wiki research, regarding vandalism, cultural heritage, digital libraries and systematic literature reviews:

• Estado del arte de la investigación sobre wikis (PDF) Template:Es icon
• WikiPapers, una recopilación colaborativa de literatura sobre wikis... (PDF) Template:Es icon
• Análisis de enlaces hacia Bibliotecas y Archivos Digitales de Patrimonio Cultural desde Wikipedia... (HTML) Template:Es icon
• Wiki Loves Monuments 2011: the experience in Spain and reflections... (PDF) Template:En icon
• AVBOT: Detecting and fixing vandalism in Wikipedia (PDF) Template:En icon

See a full list.

Tools

I have created visualization stuff like the Wikimedia projects edit counter, the Wiki Loves Monuments map and its statistics, or recommendation tools like Images for biographies (offline). In 2008, I developed an anti-vandalism bot for Spanish Wikipedia, AVBOT, which has reverted more than 250,000 vandalism edits and has several working clones.

In 2016, I launched Wikiradio tool, a real-time audio service that offers various stations, covering all genres of music and including recordings of Wikipedia articles on different languages, all of which are available on Wikimedia Commons. The Photographer did many valuable contributions to this project.
