I edit from a country where access to Wikimedia projects is blocked so I use a VPN to edit. I am mostly active between 01.00 UTC and 14.00 UTC.

Hi, I'm Xania. I've been here at Wikibooks since 2005 and presently I'm an administrator (since 2006) and check user (since 2014) here so happy to help with whatever problems you may have.
My specialties are linguistics (Romance, Slavic and Celtic languages and Basque), history, European geography, culture and politics.
I help out here with removing vandalism and spam, checking books for grammar or spelling mistakes, categorizing books, improving Cookbook pages by adding links and metric units and working on several books which I created or have contributed to.
Some Wikibooks that I am currently working on:

Languages
I am an English language professional with experience teaching the language to native speakers and non-native speakers as well as developing materials for use by other teachers. I speak Italian to a reasonable degree. I also have a more limited knowledge of Russian, French and Polish.
My Basic 'Policies' on Wikibooks
I spend a lot of time fighting vandalism on Wikibooks. I am always willing to give people the benefit of the doubt, but I have no tolerance for malicious vandalism.
You can often find me on IRC using the username Xania:

These are mainly a shortcut for pages that I commonly visit but which take forever to find because of the poor search feature on Wikibooks.
