Welcome to my user page! 
Although my efforts concentrate on Wikipedia, I occasionally contribute to Wikisource as well. As a historian, I am aware of the importance of certain historical documents, and that they should be freely available to any curious reader. I may also translate some texts, to the best of my abilities. Furthermore, you can find me on several language versions of Wikipedia (mainly English and Dutch), Wikiquote, Wiktionary and Commons.
Please refer questions to me to my talk page.
Greetings,
Nederlandse Leeuw
