| about me = I'm Nicholas Moreau, or user:zanimumI don't know how I got my username, it originated from DMOZ. I rarely volunteer there now, because of time and the overly structured format. On the English and [http://ik.wikipedia.org/ Iqualik] Wikipedias,Do I speak Iqualik? No, not even a word. But I couldn't bear to see this project go, and I've made limited but significant attempts to attract new contributors. Mainly, I deal with keeping the wiki clean for future usage. I'm an administrator. I was an original member of the Wikimedia Foundation's Communications Committee (2006-2019), and have been interviewed numerous times, for Call for Help,My first interview for Wikipedia was on Call for Help; I had contacted them, trying to arrange an interview of Jimmy Wales, on the hopes Toronto would win Wikimania 2006. They decided they wanted me instead. (Good thing too, in retrospect. Call for Help ceased production by the time the conference was held in the winning city, Boston). the Ryerson Review of Journalism,{{cite journal|last=Fortune|first=Carley|title=Who Needs Journalists?|journal=Ryerson Review of Journalim|date=15 January 2006|url=http://www.rrj.ca/m3541/|accessdate=5 January 2013|location=Toronto ON}} Home Page on CP24, the Toronto Star, and others.
In real life, I work at a municipal archives. In 2006, I graduated from the Advertising and Graphic Design program at Humber College, and interned at Ontario Out of Doors and Vervegirl.
