Greetings, all. Just call me Ederchil.


For now, I'll basically press Random page and edit if it definately needs editing. I'm a linguophile, so it's mostly etymologies and the language categories that I'll edit. I'm a bit of a purist. I can cope with any kind of reconstruction as long as it doesn't come from [[David Salo]].


== Who I really am ==
{{quote|It is ever so with the things that Men begin; there is a frost in Spring, or a blight in Summer, and they fail of their promise.|[[Gimli]], ''[[The Last Debate]]''}}


I'm a 21 year old Dutch student. I'm from Groningen, way up North.  
Hi there! I'm '''Ederchil''', I'm 28 years old and from Groningen, The Netherlands (don't you call that [[Unquendor|Holland]]). The name Ederchil - I've been using it for a couple of years now - is a rough translation of my first name, Olof - "descendant of forefathers".  


== To Do List ==
==Ederchil namespace==
Stuff I'm planning to write, some day:
* [[User:Ederchil/Sandbox]] - my personal sandbox
* Some expanding of [[menel]]
* [[User:Ederchil/Sandbox2]] - because one was not enough
* An article on the Gondorian dialect of Sindarin
* [[User:Ederchil/Sandbox3]] - because I should really finish any of the above two
* An article on the Elvish words for ''[[Dwarf]]'' and the use of them.
* [[User:Ederchil/Templates]] - various test-templates
* <s>Split up RGEO in book and song</s>, <s>dab the links</s> and expand the [[The Road Goes Ever On (book)|book article]].
* [[User:Ederchil/Orcs PiA]]
* [[User:Ederchil/Sandbox4]] - '''Blank slate'''; or, ''I'm really getting fed up with IMDb''
* [[User:Ederchil/Full cast]] - a (not so) full cast of [[The Lord of the Rings (film series)|''The Lord of the Rings'' (film series)]]. Outdated, unsourced and unformatted, thus unreliable.
