My handle (Roadmaster) came from the old Test Drive video game. I want to live here.
Wikipedia is NOT a democracy.
I'm from Mexico, although I currently live in Montreal, Canada. I'm able to help with any Mexico-related articles, of which I've contributed a few myself (see below). I'm also available to help with translation between spanish and english.
Nice articles. The ones with asterisk I started, the other ones I've added stuff to:
- French Press *
- Van Jacobson *
- Van Jacobson TCP/IP Header Compression *
- TAESA *
- World Trade Center México * (this one I'm particularly proud of; my only shame is I never found the time to take the picture myself).
- Polyforum Cultural Siqueiros *
- Torre Latinoamericana * (I can't believe I actually started this one! WHEE!)
- Pesero *
- Flans *
- Torre Mayor *
- Metro General Anaya
- Estadio Azteca
Also I have taken and uploaded some pictures, under the GFDL for use on Wikipedia and related projects.
Of course my pictures will probably never be featured like this one:
Ravished Armenia, also known as Auction of Souls, is a 1919 American silent film directed by Oscar Apfel and based on the autobiographical book Ravished Armenia by Aurora Mardiganian, a survivor of the Armenian genocide. Mardiganian portrayed herself in the film, which depicts her experiences of deportation, persecution and enslavement during the genocide. Filmed in California, it used thousands of Armenians as extras, many of whom had survived similar events. The film was exhibited internationally and helped raise funds for Armenian and Syrian relief efforts. Long thought lost, it survives only in a 14- to 15-minute fragment rediscovered in Yerevan in 1994. This theatrical poster was produced at the time of Ravished Armenia's release in 1919. The poster features an illustration of a young woman being carried forcefully by a soldier, with a bloodied sword in his other hand.Poster credit: Guenther, after Dan Smith
