About me

I am an administrator on Wikipedia. I'm mostly interested in anything having to do with science, including but not limited to, evolution, encryption, astronomy, science fiction, SETI, and computer programming. I'm also interested in politics, mostly because of the negative influence on science it's been having lately. I am an unabashed naturalist. My user ID on Wikipedia is 6511, so, yeah, I've been around for awhile (new accounts are now past two million).

Wikipedia programs

I've written some programs to perform useful tasks on Wikipedia. All of them are released under the GNU General Public License.

References converter. This converts articles that use the old {{ref}} and {{note}} system into the new <references /> system.
Wiki Userbox Generator (formerly WikiFools). This program generates a slew of random userboxes. Some configuration options are available.
Featured pictures generator. This looks at the contents of Wikipedia:Featured pictures and returns it in a nice gallery format (see here). I made this before I realized that Featured pictures visible exists. Whoops.

Bots

I own and run two bots:

Cydebot (talk • contribs) – does various encyclopedia-related work, including acting on decisions of the community at WP:SFD, WP:CFD, and WP:TFD.
AntiVandalBot (talk • contribs) – runs the same software as Tawkerbot2; supports load-sharing across multiple bots.

My PGP public key ID is 0xFFA60567, expand for key:
