User:Jameshales

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My common user names are _jameshales, Jameshales or James Hales, depending on where I am. My web page is _jameshales and it contains a few articles that might interest people, particularly about computing. I run a small community forum for friends, but anyone nice can join Phosphor and chat with me.

[edit] Role in Wikipedia

In Wikipedia I focus mainly on computing articles, about software, programming languages, GNU/Linux Linux distributions and related topics. Mostly I add new content, although occasionally I fix mistakes, links, etc. if I find anything. Pages I have significantly contributed to include:

It seems so far I am good at elaborating on some pages and creating stubs. I like creating stubs on things I do not know about because it is an opportunity to learn about something new.

[edit] My skills

  • Standards-compliant web design
  • Small-time programming in many languages
  • Art, photo editing, digital painting
  • Experience with many aspects of GNU/Linux
  • Rookie Zone player; my team has made up to 3rd place in the league, but we're not that good (Zone is not a video game)
