Faltarego (born 1960) is a person of indeterminate identity who resides in Nova Scotia, Canada and wishes to contribute in some small way to the Wikipedia world. A frequent user of Wikipedia, Faltarego was known to mention it so frequently in the workplace, that a coworker, who was also a Facebook friend, bestowed the (Facebook) superlative "most likely to turn to Wikipedia for all of life's questions." Ultimately, Faltarego decided to create an account and look for things to do.

Origin

Faltarego was created spontaneously when a person (that is, a specific individual possessed of an actual identity) decided on one cold, wintry day in 2004 (this date is apocryphal) that it might be a good idea to create things anonymously and not be a credit-seeking accolade-whore. The moment this person came up with the name, Faltarego immediately appeared. This new non-identity has been rampaging ever since, creating things and leaving no trace of who or what created them.
