Biologist and MSc in Biodiversity from Madrid, Spain; currently in Canada working on my PhD on protists. Seeking to expand the public availability of scientific knowledge. Founder of WikiProject Protista (all are welcome!). My main interests revolve around the evolution and biodiversity of protists and other organisms.

My current projects are:

• Improving articles on the deep evolution of eukaryotes, e.g., Diaphoretickes (now GA).
• Developing Glossary of protistology (since 11 May)
• Improving Algae (since 13 May)
• Maintaining Protist classification (since 2022)

A list of all the articles I've either created or overhauled (i.e. given major improvements to, to the point where the majority of text/edits are mine), in order of article quality.

Microbiology barnstar – For your absolutely amazing work at WikiProject Protista. I'm normally hanging around WikiProject Insects and WP:GA, and came across your work browsing the backlong. For an editor who's only been around for two years or so, you're work is amazing quality. Keep it up!!! —🏵️Etrius (Us) 03:29, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

The Tree of Life Barnstar – For your first GA review, and another successful promotion with Parvilucifera, congratulations! Thank you for your continued hard work in improving the quality of diverse organisms on Wikipedia. —Fritzmann (message me) 19:29, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

The Bio-star – I would like to present this award for your extensive editing of protistology articles, including the recently created Glossary of protistology. Many thanks. I wish you much enthusiasm for further editing. —Petr Karel (talk) 09:09, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

Sometimes I draw images for Wikipedia, such as the following:

• 
  Ochrophyte cell
• 
  Chlorophyte cell
• 
  Protists in the soil food web
• 
  Map of the WP:TOL projects
• 
  Infographic on the occurrence of unicellularity and multicellularity across life
• 
  Occurrence of plastid endosymbiosis across eukaryotes. Pictures are free images by Keeling & Eglit (2023)

• Tool that gives automatic citation templates just with the DOI or URL (shoutout to @Plantdrew, I discovered this in their profile)
• Synonyms of the most frequent concepts used in taxonomic articles, to avoid repetition when writing:
  • group (noun, as in group of taxa): collection, assemblage, category, assortment...
  • has (verb, as in has cellular structures): contains, exhibits, presents, displays, possesses, carries...
  • is composed of (verb, for clade composition): comprises, includes, groups, contains, encompasses...
  • evolved (verb, to mention adaptations and synapomorphies): obtained, gained, acquired, inherited (HGT), achieved...
  • considered (verb, to reflect scientific consensus): regarded as, known to be, treated as...

This is a collection of curious Wikipedia rabbit holes I've found myself reading through.

• User:JzG/charlatans → Wikipedia:Lunatic charlatans → Wikipedia:Complete bollocks → User:Geogre — A user that stopped editing ages ago, before I was old enough to be self-aware. They have since allowed their userpage to be a gallery of poems by people who either appreciate or criticize them. Even disregarding those, it's simply an interesting reading experience into a world before the Wikipedia that I know and love today, full of early internet philosophy and English eccentricity. This person was referenced by others in essays and was clearly somewhat of a niche wiki-celebrity. (16 August 2025)
