I am Haltiamieli (often called Jaakko Pirinen in Reality), a Finnish wikipedian. As it happens, I’m not very active in anywhere else but Finnish Wikipedia (well, speaking of Wikimedia projects, that is). Thus, if you need to contact me for any reason, using my Finnish talk page is probably the quickest way to be noticed.

My nickname is the Finnish translation of “Elf-friend”, a term used in Tolkien’s writings to denote humans (or other people) who are friends with the Elves. Often in speech and in writing Haltiamieli is shortened to Haltis or Halti, the latter being also the name of the highest point of Finland. I’ve never actually visited Halti, but I’ve been close.
