About me

Hi, I'm Owen, a queer (Q51415) British guy based just in Cardiff (Q10690).

I've been a Wikimedian since 2004, editing mainly on the English Wikipedia, Wikidata and Commons. Off-wiki, I've been involved in mySociety (Q10851773) and Open Rights Group (Q3397639), including membership of WMF's European Public Policy panel, and as a climate activist (Q61048378); for my dayjob, I am a technologist (Q51330768) at a consulting company (Q2089936) for the public sector (Q294217).

In 2021, I took on some responsibilities within the Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group, including helping organise the Queering Wikipedia for the 2021 Working Days and the conferences in 2022 and 2023, becoming chair of the WMLGBT board in June 2024. I also worked with Wikimedia Argentina and Art+Feminism on the English-language translation of their guide to queer biographies.
