[edit] Personal

Personally, I see the Wikipedia are more of a great organisational source than really a informational source. You can find most of this information anywhere, but there's few places where all this stuff is connected. (See Six degrees of separation, Wikipedia style).

[edit] Firefox extension

For people using the Mozilla Firefox browser, there's a great Wikipedia extension available here.

[edit] Parody

Similar to how Nirvana felt that they had "made it" after Weird Al recorded "Smells Like Nirvana" (parodying "Smells Like Teen Spirit"), I believe the Wikipedia has made it when The Onion satirizes it. Interestingly enough, The Onion's satire involves "Weird Al" too.

[edit] Wiki work

You can see all my contributions here. Most of the contributions are minor, as it's mostly correcting links. Judging by the fact that most of the things I'm listing here are stubs really, my standards are still quite low for mention. Most of the time, I find some section of articles that need work and clean an array of articles over a period of time. As an aside, when I'm creating articles (or am basically the second person looking at an article), I like make breaks after each sentence to made it easier to review edits.

My first edit here on October 28, 2004:

I also created the same username on the Simple English Wikipedia. I have recently become an administrator there and am starting to do more work there right now.

[edit] Started

I've started the following pages:

Law School Admissions Council (my first true contribution), Bagdad (movie), Shock (movie), Vincenzo Viviani, the Antonio da Sangallo disambiguation page, Governors of Mississippi Winthorp Sargent and John J. Pettus, and Contaminated haemophilia blood products (in progress; needs a better name!).

I've also created and populated Category:Good Times actors and Category:Seinfeld actors, along with categories for Category:Blade: The Series actors, episodes and characters.

Haven't really created a lot.

[edit] Relatively major editing

[edit] Minor work

[edit] To do

[edit] Categories

  • Make subcategories and format the structure at Category:Years in television, and Category:Years in Canada.
  • Try to standardize the format for categories and articles at Category:Record charts, like the title "Number one", etc.
  • Once the CSD debate for Category:Indefinitely blocked Wikipedia users settles, create Category:Indefinitely blocked Wikipedians by month and fill in all the months to keep things clean.
