Hello, I'm Alexeyevitch (Alek-'SAY'-yuh-vich), or simply Alex. I'm a New Zealander (or Kiwi) trying to make a difference in this often-forgotten corner of the world. I mainly edit articles related to New Zealand, particularly its biodiversity. I'm interested in native and poisonous plants, especially their ecological roles, characteristics, as well as in wood and traditional uses. I've also become interested in more obscure topics, such as fungi, especially fungi on wood and mushroom-like fungi present in New Zealand. I aim to improve Wikipedia's coverage of such organisms.
If you wish to contact me, please use my talk page. For private matters, experienced users can email me. I don't use the same username on any platforms other than Wikimedia Projects and the Wikimedia Discord server.
To-dos:
Urtica ferox (to FA, an ambitious goal, but it is one of my all-time favorite plants, first get done with PR)
I'd like to personally thank you for your continued efforts in recent changes patrolling. Keep up the good work! Synorem (talk) 14:52, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
