About me
Hi there,
I'm a French citizen with multicultural indentity. My rural uprising in a forested area –shared by only 3% of European citizens– taught me to values education, wild life, and people.
My appetite for foreign cultures lead me into an exchange student year in Lukang, Taiwan, where I learnt Chinese language and culture, English, and multilingualism. My 20s were spent in France, Taiwan and India to acquire diploma in History, Chinese studies, and Computer Science.
In early 2010 I learn my ancestors' mother language actually was now-endangered Occitan, a 15-millions strong and vibrant culture which has been wiped out by France's policies.
For the past 10 years I've been professionally involved in higher education while active in language diversity revitalization via Wikimedia. I have expertise in open education, educational platform engineering, JavaScript, with a keen interest in expanding vocabulary resources. In 2023-2024, I was the Wikimedian en résidence at Université de Toulouse.
My work
Since 2004, my journey as a devoted Wikimedian has seen me embracing diverse roles within the Wikimedia community. Drawing from my background in Chinese studies and e-learning, I've made substantial contributions, wearing hats as both an editor and a project coordinator.
My notable contributions include facilitating the creation of 15,000+ images and maps, as well as shaping Wikipedia Cartographic guidelines through the creation and coordination of the Graphic Labs and Map workshops. The creation of the CJK Stroke Order Project and the Ancient Chinese Characters Project also led to the collective production of 15,000 more files. Since 2012 I've been pivotal to the creation, facilitation, coding and promotion of Wikimedia France's LinguaLibre.org, a rapid audio recording system. In 2024, Lingua Libre celebrated its 1,300,000th recordings and 260 languages.
My Wikipedia contributions span diverse topics, with an emphasis on Chinese culture, contemporary social issues and human rights. I've played lead roles, including in the 2020 Covid Task Force, and held administrative positions on Wikipedia FR, Commons and Lingua Libre. You may meet me IRL at Wikimania ('07,'13,'14,'17,'18,'19,'21,'22,'23,'24) and Hackathons.
