As there was genuine, repeated interest in NSK's user identity and NSK has AFAIK still not clarified his identity himself, I will "blow the whistle", that is, I will relay the relevant info (which is, after all, freely and openly available):
NSK appears to be [[en:User:Npc]]. He has been active since October 23 and as of this writing has made 96 edits. A certain share of his contributions are insertions of links to his own wiki projects. These link insertions may be (or may not be) perceived as inappropriate, but others be the judge of that. Not all of NSK's contributions are such link insertions and IMHO some of his contributions are quite ok.
Sorry to be the one to "blow the whistle" but I feel there's a public interest; no offense to NSK.

I wonder how you found that.

I would never include an inappropriate link in Wikipedia or anywhere. All the links have useful content to offer and are never promotional.
Most links contain more information on some subject. It may be GFDL or not. If it isn't and you want it to be incorporated in Wikipedia, you can ask me to relicense parts of it under GFDL.

I doubt the public interest is legitimate. Why should people care what my username is?
BTW now that you published my wikiname, you have the responsibility to protect me from unjustified bans etc. :)
Anyway, that username (Npc) is referring to http://www.nerdypc.org which is a wiki knowledge base on computer hardware and software where anyone can contribute. However I would like to have a more general username. Do you know how I can change it to something better?
Try using your real name... Unless you have some actual reason for confidentially. Create a new account under your new name then ask for the history to be added to that account, if it matters.

My real name is a bit long for a wikiname so I usually use NSK or FreeNSK on wikis, for example http://www.openformats.org/FreeNSK
I will create a new account now, thanks.

If I wanted to advertise I would add articles like [[Wikinerds]] [[NSK]] [[JnanaBase]] [[MaatWorks]] [[Adapedia]] [[NerdyPC]] et cetera. I never did that on en.wikipedia.org (since the Wikipedia community will soon write these articles).

They will get deleted along with any other articles on any other non-famous websites. So don't flatter yourself.
