It is not incumbent upon you to complete the work, but neither are you at liberty to desist from it (Avot 2:21, attributed to Rabbi Tarfon)
Hi! My name is Asaf Bartov, and I'm a longtime volunteer on Wikipedia and some other Wikimedia projects.

Cuteness in the Wikimedia movement
I also work for the Wikimedia Foundation, but I use my staff account for edits made in that official capacity. Take a look at that page for more about my work at the Foundation. Before November 2014, I had been using this account to do my official work as staff as well, so many older grant discussions here on Meta will show official edits by me.
Things I do
I have been a practicing (volunteer) Wikipedian for many years; my home wiki is the Hebrew Wikipedia, but I make occasional contributions on the English Wikipedia as well. I have a strong background in software engineering, and an abiding interest in literature, education, open access, linked data, and library science.
Also as an unpaid volunteer, I am a founding editor of Project Ben-Yehuda and a teacher of classical Greek and Latin. I used to serve on the board of Wikimedia Israel.
Here are Slides and recordings of my talks.
On March 4th 2015, I had succumbed to the #100wikidays challenge, as victim #2. I completed the challenge in precisely 100 days, er, plus one year. The story is told here, including its even more challenging conclusion.
Wikimedia tools I maintain
(All tools I write are free software and their source code is available on GitHub.)
- Luthor -- a tool for finding usage examples from Wikisource and adding them to lexemes on Wikidata
- GLAMify -- for a given category on Commons, suggests images for articles based on another Wikipedia's use of those images
- This tool interacts with Meta (on my own userspace) using the Ijonbot bot account.
- Wordpile -- for a given PagePile ID, calculate the total word count
- This tool interacts with Meta (on my own userspace) using the Ijonbot bot account.
- wimgs -- an image downloader for preparing offline Wikipedia dumps
- erex_yomi -- a script sending a bidiurnal e-mail with a featured article, featured photo, and today in history, all from the Hebrew Wikipedia, to a list of subscribers. Subscribe here: ערך יומי בדואל
