Myself, at Wikimania 2016 in Esino Lario
My name is Rainer Halama.
I am German, in my mid 60's and I have decided to digitilize my collection of slides. Some of them I like to share with you. And some of them, I think can still serve well as illustrations in Wikipedia.
Apart from digitilzing old slides, which has stepped into the background I now photograph to illustrate articles or give comprehensive views of cultural heritage monuments or objects of art or document current events for future times.
I am also active mostly in the German Language Wikipedia as
User:Wuselig
. I also upload scans and own images of 2-dimensional works (i.e. mere reproductions) and CC-0 licensed works under that Username. All works that I want attribution for are uploaded here.
To avoid conflicts of interest, and to prevent to be accused of sock-puppetry, I confine all my nominations and voting activity to the SUL account "User:Wuselig" accross all projects.

I have stopped nominating my own images to Quality Images. I believe the assesment-system there (own nomination - followed by a friendly affirmation) is not a sufficient way to determine images of outstanding quality.
I am however happy, if somebody comes across any of my images and decides to nominate this image. Because in this way, it is a third party apreciation followed by the Quality Image assesment - which I still hold as insufficient by my above reasoning.
If from there the image is forwarded to the Featured Image Vote (at least there we have a sufficient voting system with more than two eyes) I feel honored. Again because some other person than me has made that decission.
