″Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!″

— Percy Shelley's "Ozymandias"

I am Ligaventura95, and welcome to my user page.

Here on Wikipedia, I primarily edit lists of expatriate football players and occasionally update international caps. I am a lifelong supporter of Chelsea and the England national football team. Over the last 5 years, I have been compiling my own extensive football statistics archive, which I use as the basis for ascertaining which articles need attention. Aside from domestic football, I follow many other leagues across Europe, Latin America and the wider world.

Outside of the sport, I am a linguist, with a focus on lexicology. I hold the works of Samuel Johnson in great regard and I consider myself a descriptivist. I am fluent in English and Spanish, and speak basic Italian, Portuguese, French, German and Mandarin Chinese.

This user thinks English spelling reform is dumb, since we'll have to do it again anyway in a few hundred years, and besides, no writing system is telling me how to talk.
