Where I've been

Number 57 is an English wikipedian from the county of Suffolk. As well as Hertfordshire and Berkshire, he also lived in southern Israel for several years. Having picked up a bit of Hebrew during his time in the Negev, he decided to try and learn how to read in Arabic and Russian after seeing so many signs written in them in Beersheba.

On Misplaced Pages he writes about Israeli politics, elections and referendums all over the world, association football, and small places in Israel and Suffolk that no-one else can be bothered to. He occasionally contributes to the Hebrew wikipedia (though as his written grammar is appalling, the articles tend to be completely rewritten once someone else finds them), and has accounts on a few other wikis, largely to correct obvious mistakes or fix/create inter-wiki links. Since September 2007 he has been an admin on the English wiki. This means that his userpage is now regularly vandalised by editors who cannot understand why he deleted their wonderful articles.

Articles I've started

At the last count, I'd started just over 900 articles. You can see the full list by using this tool. My major achievements would be completing the sets of articles on:

Knesset elections.
Political parties which have had Knesset seats (133 articles).
Signatories of the Israeli declaration of independence (plus a major improvement of the article itself).
Elections and referendums in Ghana
Elections and referendums in Sierra Leone
Regional council in Israel.
Basketball clubs in Ligat HaAl.
Towns and villages in Israel (including West Bank settlements, though not outposts).
Past and present Israeli government ministers.

Plus the vast majority of these templates are my work.

Current work

At the moment I'm trying to complete the sets of articles on:

Past and present Israeli ministerial portfolios (see Template:Israeli ministers).
Parishes in Suffolk.
Clubs that have played in the Eastern Counties Football League.

Did you know

...that Pinchas Rosen, Israel's first Minister of Justice, served in the German army during World War I?
...that the Alignment is the only political party in Israel ever to have held a majority of seats in the Knesset?
...that Bechor-Shalom Sheetrit was the only signatory of the Israeli declaration of independence to have been born in the Land of Israel?
...that the 1951 Gold Coast legislative election was the first to be held in Africa under universal suffrage?
...that the 1967 general election in Sierra Leone saw the first defeat of a ruling party in an election held under universal suffrage in sub-Saharan Africa?
... that the Bedouin villagers of al-Sayyid developed their own form of sign language in response to the high rate of deafness amongst their tribe?
... that the 1966-68 Liga Leumit season was played over two years in an effort to rid Israeli football of corruption and violence, which included riots on the field?
... that Mishmar David was the first kibbutz to be privatised?
