Bilorv (he/they) is a British Wikipedia editor. They joined Wikipedia on Friday the 13th, in December 2013, and have made about 25,000 edits since then. The user is a member of WikiProject Television and has received university education in mathematics and computer science, also having knowledge in the areas of literature, music, politics and philosophy. Some of their contributions focus on people or ideas which are underrepresented on Wikipedia, such as women, people of colour, transgender people, and cultures other than those of Western Europe and North America. As a result, they take an interest in WikiProject Women in Red and WikiProject Black Lives Matter.

A sample of Bilorv's contributions from 2018 onwards includes being the primary author of the television episode "San Junipero" and other Black Mirror episodes, creating articles on books including We Are Displaced, Women, Race and Class and Prof: Alan Turing Decoded and creating articles on mathematical and theoretical computer science topics such as birth process or linear time property. Other major contributions such as Taskmaster (TV series) or September 2019 climate strikes are collaborations with many other users. All Wikipedia articles are imperfect and unfinished and almost all can improved by anybody at any time.

The user also makes many more smaller improvements, takes part in routine maintenance, reviews the contributions of others at Articles for Creation and participates in discussions across the site. Bilorv has a few different hats (user rights) and can access many newspaper and academic sources through ProQuest Ebook Central, Newspaperarchive.com and other databases. (Check out The Wikipedia Library to see if you have Library Bundle access!) Feel free to ask them for help or advice about anything!

In their personal life, Bilorv enjoys chess, playing the flute and keyboard and watching lots and lots of television.
