Hi! I'm David Parreño Mont ([https://twitter.com/dapamont @dapamont]), a future journalist. When I was 12 I started editing the Catalan [https://twitter.com/Wikipedia @Wikipedia], improving my writing skills while I managed to help many other people.
I describe myself as a "volunteer of knowledge". I have started more than 500 articles on Wikipedia, 4 of them Featured Articles, and I have made over 40,000 contributions, willingly. Thus, these articles will be helpful to thousands of people. I'm also member and Communication Coordinator of [https://twitter.com/AmicalWikimedia @AmicalWikimedia], a non-profit Wikimedia organization whose focus of interest is the [https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Catalonia&src=typd&f=realtime #Catalan] language and culture. This year Amical Wikimedia was officialy recognized by Wikimedia Foundation as the first organization that did not represent a state.
I am the Wikipedian-in-Residence at [https://twitter.com/bibliotequescat Catalan Network of Public Libraries] to promote and encourage the participation of the public libraries of Catalonia on Wikipedia. Working together, we can promote scholarly and cultural knowledge, information literacy, and open access. Before, I had been also the Wikipedian-In-Residence at cultural institutions of #Palafrugell, my hometown.
Moreover, I'm studying a Bachelor's degree in Humanities and in Journalism at Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona. I'm a radio broadcaster of [http://www.comunicaciopalafrugell.cat/radio Ràdio Palafrugell] and collaborator of [http://www.nuvol.com/ Núvol.com], the Catalan cultural digital magazine. I was editor for Bits Catalans, the first Catalan tech blog.
