Lanin started writing in the Indonesian Wikipedia in 2006 (he signed up with username IvanLanin on February 18, 2006) with his first edits on the article entitled Pajak.
Soon after, he was well regarded in Indonesian. In 2007, he joined a mailing-list, called Bahtera, in which memberships were closed to Indonesian critics and lovers. By the end of 2008, Wikimedia Indonesia was established by 19 people, Revo Arka Giri Soekatno and him. At the Members Summit, at the end of 2008, he was chosen as Executive Director of Wikimedia Indonesia. Ivan took a break from the task at the end of 2009 due to very limited free-time. In the middle of 2009, he was approved by Magister Teknologi Informasi Universitas Indonesia to study towards a postgraduate degree in that institution. Coincidentally, he was also accepted to be an editor in Google Indonesian.
In order to help good and true Indonesian be distributed more widely, Ivan started developing a program, called "Kateglo", a mixture of a kamus (dictionary), tesaurus (thesaurus), and glosarium (glossary). He developed the program together with his colleague, Romi Hardiyanto, an Indonesian translator of Firefox browser software. Ivan met to develop Kateglo for first time on 9 May 2009. He wrote database structures of the program in 3 days. Ivan took the responsibility to develop the scripts, while Romi did the debugging.
