[edit] My Future Contributions

I hope to add signifigantly to wikipedia's computer programming information, and much on video games as well. Visual Basic Programming in particular.

[edit] WikiProject: CVG

Recently an anoymous user signed your name as a participant with the WikiProject Computer and video games. It is possible that this user was you, but given that you haven't edited a page since July 2005, it's also likely that this is a hoax of some sort. Because of this, I have removed your name from the list. If this is in error, or in the future you plan to contribute more to Wikipedia and actually wish to sign up as a participant of this WikiProject, I encourage you to do so. Thank you.

I would like to echo K1Bond007's remarks with regard to the Final Fantasy WikiProject. My apologies if this was made in error. Thank you. – Seancdaug 21:17, September 6, 2005 (UTC)
Sorry, I did in fact forget to log in, I re-added myself to both of those projects, sorry for the misunderstanding.

[edit] Abuse of admin powers

I saw you agreed that no user subpages should be deleted because certain admins do not like the opinions expressed on them. User:Dmcdevit however redeleted User:ROGNNTUDJUU!/User against Iraq war of aggression and User:ROGNNTUDJUU!/GOP criminal. I will file a complaint at RFC if another user fails to convince him that he violates policy. De mortuis... 01:09, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AWB

I added you to the AWB list, partly because the disambig work you were doing is something I kept meaning to get around to doing. thanks Martin 23:04, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much. It is a pretty massive job, and I'm not sure EXACTLY what should be done on some of the particulars or if I should add other things to the page, so any input would be appreciated to make sure this won't need to be redone. Chris M. 02:22, 11 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Test

This is me trying to comprehend Wikipedia's Qif Template which I want to use and change if MediaWiki 1.6 ever comes out for users outside of the english wikipedia. This is written in basically Visual Basic code, because it's easiest for me to understand. Please don't edit the code, although you may comment below it. Chris M. 19:45, 12 April 2006 (UTC)


{{{else{{{test|}}}|{{{test{{{test|}}}|{{{then|}}}}}}}}}

If {{{else{{{test}}}}}} = "" Then

Print {{{else{{{test}}}}}}

Else

If {{{test{{{test}}}}}} = "" Then
A = {{{then}}}
Else
A = {{{test{{{test}}}}}}
End If

End If


In {{{else{{{test}}}}}}, if "test" is empty, then it will evaluate to the value of the variable named "else". If "test" is not empty, then it will evaluate to the variable of "else" & whatever the value of "test" is, since that variable was not given, it's value is empty.

So if "test" is empty, then we get the value of "else", and that's it.

If "test" is not empty, then we get a variable name which corresponds to an empty value, then the outcome is the default text following.

if "test" is empty, then "{{{test{{{test}}}}}}" becomes empty, if "test" is not empty, then the value of "{{{test{{{test}}}}}}" is STILL empty because it evaluates a non-given variable which would have an empty value, so this automatically goes to the default text following.

if "then" is empty, then the whole thing outputs nothing, if "then" is not empty, then it outputs the value of "then", exactly as we want.

So...I'm going to wikipedia to ask why there is even the expression "" Couldn't it be simply ""? Chris M. 19:45, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Did you get the script working on sporewiki? Lupin|talk|popups 01:01, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't believe the owner of sporewiki has gotten to it yet. I'll definitly let you know because I'll probably need more help :). Chris M. 01:57, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] British English

Not sure how I stumbled onto your user page, but are you aware that you have one userbox that declares your support for American English, and another that indicates that your "favourite colour" is orange?

How quaint!
