Wikibreak/Wikignoming
[edit]
Editing Wikipedia is too fun. I need to find a job. I've been spending more time editing Wikipedia than editing my CV/portfolio and sending application letters. I have come to the conclusion that I cannot effectively divide my time between editing Wikipedia and finding a job. So... I've decided to take a Wikibreak starting Sept. 13, 2006.
Update: 2013-01-21 Seems I'm going to have to begin editing Wikipedia again ^^" I've found a 'steady' job now; several actually, since my old 2004 Wikipedia days... I'm currently holding only one job! One job. Honest! xD
For more on my current shenanigans do feel free to visit my Twitter profile
Update: 2021-10-04 As should be obvious from my contribs, I've returned to WikiGnoming now; have been for several years actually... As for my current situation? I'm "full-time freelancing" again. Heh. 😜
Lets see....
I have a blog... Several, actually... and a deviantART page et cetera... though I'm more active at Twitter and Ello nowadays....
I'm also registered in Wikipedia Indonesia and the Wikimedia Commons...
I am currently trying to graduate I have recently graduated from I had graduated some time ago from Universitas Indonesia by (haphazardly) creating a marketing communication program for Firefox (my major is Communication Sciences, concentration Advertising)...
I'm currently a struggling junior art director at a small, local ad agency here in Jakarta. Hey, at least I have a regular job (yay! :) // Scratch that; anybody looking for a translator? A graphic designer? No?... // I'm currently working as a Digital Marcomm Officer and in-house copywriter/blogger/socmed content-writer for an Internet/Mobile services company based in Jakarta. I'm hoping this will last yay! :D As per above, I'm "fulltime freelancing" again (read: unemployed).
I like to refer to myself pseudo-anonymously as Lemi4 or fERDI:) on various corners of the Internet...
I'll try to add more as I get around to it...
(Oh and I'd like to confirm that I also edit at the Indonesian Wikipedia as Lemi4).

I've contributed to 7-Zip, WinZip, Creative Commons, and the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, among others...
I also started Nias.
Feel free to scan my contribs.
I am not a lawyer, but I support Wikipedian effort to deal with Wikipedia's copyright issues (further discussion here).
Specifically I support multi-licensing, specific user namespace contribution text licensing using licensing templates, and interest into moving to Creative Commons by-sa 2.0 license and/or lobbying the Free Software Foundation to fix the GNU Free Documentation License so that it can be compatible with other free content licenses (as opposed to free software licenses; I believe the GPL, as well as the GFDL, to be excellent for software).
I also support granting licensing rights to the WikiMedia Foundation (see below) to simplify things. Kinda like the way the FSF urges people to grant them copyright of Free Software to simplify their defense in public courts. Its either that or we fix copyright law. After all I'd never have written any of my contributions if Wikipedia had never existed at all.

Update 2013-01-21: I seriously need to update these userboxes some time, though I guess you can more or less say these userboxes are about 68% correct 😅 For example my old BlogDrive blog is now defunct and I'm using Google Chrome nowadays more than Firefox (though I still think Firefox rocks). Anyways yeah ^^"
Update 2021-10-04 & 2022-08-22: Uhh... updated further? 😅 Also I use MS Edge now because Google Chrome just feels more bloated, even with/without all the extensions & plugins... it's all Chromium-based anyways...
