A Swede. I enjoy music (preferably 60's–70's although other eras have managed to produce a few gems as well), beer (Sweden is a great place for getting hold of nice beer although a little expensive) and computers (I'm a hobby programmer making an occasional nickle for a smaller company). I study mathematics at the university.

I'd been doing occasional minor edits and small contributions here and there for a few years, never bothering to register. As of July, 2006, though, I decided to get done with it, so here I am.

[edit] Contributions

Apart from some reverts, corrections of spelling and such trivial stuff, I've made major contributions to these articles:

Bandy, kind of like football on ice.
Lunds Studentsångförening, one of the two major student male choirs in Sweden, the other being Orphei Drängar.
The Sala gang (Salaligan), four Swedish criminals who were active in the surroundings of small and innocent Sala in the years 1930–1936.
Alvar Larsson, a 13-year old Swedish boy who disappeared in 1967. His skull has been found since, but virtually nothing is known about his disappearance.

I might try to provide more articles related to Swedish crime, such as the verdicts and disputes regarding Lars Möller, the murders in Hurva (Hurvamorden), the incestuous Yngsjö murder (Yngsjömordet), etc. etc.

[edit] Awards and that kind of stuff

I'll just point out that the driving factor for me getting an account was that I received a barnstar on a shared IP I was using and I thought I'd collect it. Yes, awards and ego-boosts are what keep this species making progress....
