There is no native Spanish-speaking administrator available in Wikidata in European time zones, but the Spanish Wikipedia is a well-known source of vandalism. Anyway, I offer to help by using the administrator tools in any area, so this motivation is just an excuse. Due to my fondness for inclusionism and the principles of the Linked Data, I honestly don't expect to delete many entities except in case of obvious vandalism, but I would love to contribute by all other ways with which the community believes I can be helpful. I can be contacted via IRC, where I keep a 24/7 connection; Twitter, where I <spam>pay attention to @wikidata_es</spam>; Telegram or email.
Short background: I am a sysop and bureaucrat of the Spanish Wikipedia since 2012, but I soon reduced my activity there to focus on contributing to Wikidata. During these years I have given some talks and workshops about Wikidata, encouraged several institutions to use the project and occasionally tried to help on the technical side. I am a member of Q14866877 since 2012 and served as a board member from 2015 to 2017. Aspects related to my edits can be more or less easily deduced from the contributions page or related tools. Thanks for your comments! --abián 10:36, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

edit- I notice you also have edited in a number of other European languages (Portuguese, Italian, Catalan) but you only list them as level 1 in your Babel box - do you think you could provide administrative support for those also? ArthurPSmith (talk) 12:50, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I can't speak or write in those Romance languages; however, because of their similarities with Spanish or French languages and my relationships with native speakers, I can read in them and usually determine if an action is vandalism or not without resorting to a translator. My edits in these languages are poor: they consist in adding or fixing proper names, converting the first letter of the label to lower case if needed, removing the full stop from the description, etc. However, yes, I would provide some administrative support for them. --abián 13:33, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
