Wikipedia & Commons
[edit]Although I have done some work on English Wikipedia, most of my contributions over the years have been on Dutch Wikipedia (check my contributions here). In January 2018, I won the first prize in the Dutch Wikipedia Writing Contest with this article. An English translation is available here. As of 2026, five featured articles on Dutch Wikipedia were largely or entirely written by me.

Photographs on Commons
[edit]I have contributed quite a bit on Wikimedia Commons too, so far almost 240.000 edits (2024). A major project I was involved with, was the categorization of 450,000 images that were donated to Wikimedia Commons by the Dutch Heritage Agency RCE. Of the 30,000 images I uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, around 20,000 were taken by me. Here are some:
