Hello,
My name is Primož, I'm 34 years old and reside in Slovenia, EU. I have a bachelor's degree in "Civil Engineering" (named differently here, but I was told that that is probably the most appropriate _expression_ in English) and am currently unemployed. As far as my Linux experience goes, it is at novice level currently, even though my first clash with Linux was back in the late 90s when I installed Slackware on my computer, but back then, my main interest was mostly IRC, using BitchX, and wasting absurd amounts of time playing a MUD. After that, it was mostly Windows usage until a user on Freenode suggested Fedora to me, which I did install and tried out for a bit, but having to switch to Windows occasionally, the usage of Fedora dwindled down until I had to do a full Windows reinstall due to hard drive failure and never gotten around to installing Fedora alongside Windows again. A week or so ago, I managed to utilize my sister's laptop for testing purposes, and, after removing the obsolete Windows XP installation on it, installed Fedora 22 Workstation i386 and am now using the laptop and the OS for simple router usage, as well as learning about basic networking and various options that come along with that. Since I'm currently unemployed, the spare time amount is usually quite substantial, and after another user on Freenode in #fedora pointed me to making a Fedoraproject account to be able to "fix" a typo on a wiki page, I decided that I'll try and give something back, because just by running Fedora on the laptop enabled me to actually connect to the Internet at all, since Windows doesn't want to recognize my USB modem for some reason, and that alone is worth enough for me to return the "favor" back in any way I can. As far as English language knowledge goes, written (typed), grammar and spelling wise isn't really a problem for me, I consider myself fluent in the language, owing that to a big number of English books I've read since my late elementary school years. I'm not really sure how much activity is expected/required from someone new joining the Docs project/new wiki gardeners, but I'll try to do my best if I'm accepted and hopefully I can contribute to something else to Fedoraproject in the future.
That's about it as far as basic introduction goes, if you have any other questions while considering the application, don't hesitate to drop me a line (wall).
Until next time, if not sooner, Primož
