Hello, world![1]

Time to introduce myself: Name's Vaněk, Jan Vaněk jr.[2]

When I registered here in January 2022,[3] I justified myself (a. o.; copypasted warts, missing articles and all): 

I'm a Czech fan now nearer 50 than anything else, sometimes active internationally, especially on http://www.isfdb.org/wiki/index.php/User:JVjr (they even made me an entry[4] due to my brief contribution to NYRSF). My one-off one-sheet zine for Dublin Worldcon was included in WOOF 44 (though seems not available online).[5] You may also check my existence, and mutual friends, at https://fb.com/jan.j.vanek/

For more details[6] see my autobiography in the second, 2022 issue of my perzine, which turned out not to be that one-off after all.[7]

The system's default link Special:Contributions/JVjr you can encounter elsewhere currently does not work:[8] After you get there, you have to click again on "Search", even without filling out anything else, and only then it will take you to https://fancyclopedia.org/index.php?title=Special%3AContributions&target=JVjr&namespace=0 which, I think,[9] speaks for itself.[10][11]

Still, more will come later.[12] --JVjr (talk) 21:00, 10 August 2024 (PDT)

  1. ↑ Hello, fandom, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again…
  2. ↑ That is, of course the legal name is just the former; as a foolish youth, so many decades ago, I appended a disambiguator. I write it the Czech way – no comma, lowercase J, despite what anybody else does or you see anywhere.
  3. ↑ To fix/expand a Czech-related article I haven't got to yet, of course.
  4. ↑ Jan_Vaněk,_Jr. in Internet Speculative Fiction Database
  5. ↑ Since, I made sure it is.
  6. ↑ Should you happen to be curious about such inconsequentialities.
  7. ↑ Available at https://sites.google.com/site/janvanekjr/newtnews or within WOOF, https://efanzines.com/WOOF/
  8. ↑ Due to a peculiar bug
  9. ↑ Hell, daresay!
  10. ↑ Yes, some of my best (fan)writing is contained in edit summaries.
  11. ↑ Yes, I love digressions, parentheses and footnotes; thanks for asking. (But no, somehow I never liked Pterry.) Alas, the current state/version of the Fancy MediaWiki does not allow nesting them… but soon!
  12. ↑ And I mean rather sooner than later!
