[edit] Deryck on Wikipedia

I'm an administrator on Wikipedia. Find me if you need any help. Because of the promotion, I appeared on the Wikipedia Signpost for the week starting 5 March 2007.

I'm a major participant and maintainer of both the Science Collaboration of the Week and the Hong Kong Collaboration of the Week.

In addition, I also appear in FAC, BAP and PUA.

Occasionally, I write programs that assist me in editing wikipedia articles. The most recent ones help me identify unicodes in a page and turn them to raw Chinese words. The process takes less than 1 second. Click here to have a look at the marvelous results done by my program. Mail me if you want the program.

I'm also sysop on Cantonese Wikipedia and editor on Chinese Wikipedia.
