Halibutt

Halibutt (German Heilbutt, born 1981) – is a student, journalist in spe and a proficient nitpicker. Since 2000 a student at the Spanish Studies Faculty of the Warsaw University.

Some time ago I was also working for the Polish Press Agency. I joined the Polish Wikipedia on November 20, 2003, with a sense of a mission, but don't worry, I quickly grew up. Eight days later I joined the English wiki – for good, I hope. My main interests are history and linguistics, with focus on Central Europe and history of 20th century armed conflicts. Contrary to what you might think, I passed my Cambridge CAE exams and got an A grade, which theoretically entitles me to teach English language in Polish high schools. I'm a proof that the British Council examination boards are often wrong... Please feel free to correct my mistakes.

As all other Poles I'm a fascist/ communist/ racist/ anti-semite/ biased person/ revisionist/ philo-Semite/ Semite/ anti-Semite/ trouble user/ uncivilised barbarian/ nationalist/ placename fetishist/ German revisionist / Polish pan/ Ukrainian nationalist / Polish Nazi/ Slavic monkey/ native of Lower Dneper/ stupid slave/ Polish fascist/ chauvinist/ falsificator (sic!)/ slave . Or at least that is how certain Wikipedians call me. I guess that's the price one has to pay for having one's own point of view and knowing enough historical sources to defend it. As a Jew I have several other "features", but it's not PC to state them loudly. Anyway, before you make any remarks on my nationality be sure to learn how to deal with Poles.

By the way, my Wikipedioholic test shows some NPOV number of 329. I find it very strange.
