User:Sanqui

Hi, I am Sanqui! I consider myself an amateur digital archivist and have been helping Archive Team on and off for several years. My other topics of interest are birds and nature conservation at wide, old technology and video games, reverse engineering and ROM hacking, internet and furry culture, and linguistics. Anything that intersects these topics is likely to capture my attention as far as archival goes. I'm fluent in Czech and English and I have basic skills that will assist in archiving sites in German, Estonian, and Japanese. If you believe I could help you with preserving content at risk, don't hesitate to contact me:
