Amir Sarabadani

I don't know why we are here, but I'm pretty sure that it is not in order to enjoy ourselves. ― Ludwig Wittgenstein

About me

I was born in 1992 in Tehran, Iran and I studied physics. I currently live in Berlin, Germany.

My work

I have been active since 2006 and my home wiki is Persian Wikipedia where I'm sysop, bureaucrat and check user but you can find me in English Wikipedia, Commons, Meta, Wikidata, or Mediawiki wiki. I'm operator of Dexbot and developer of pywikibot. My other works include Revision Scoring research and building AI tools for Wikipedia (including Kian). As a software engineer in Wikimedia Germany, I'm also a developer of Wikidata.
