Hello I'm h2g2bob. I contribute to wikipedia every so often, and I'm also involved in other wiki sites. Feel free to leave me a message.

Who are you?

A picture of myself
A picture of myself

My real name is David Batley, but I'm known to many as Physics Dave. I live in Eastwood, Essex in the United Kingdom. I'm a python programmer for a small company. I'm also an alumnus of the University of Exeter, having earned a 2:1 MPhys in theoretical physics.

My name

My name is a compound of h2g2, a website founded by Douglas Adams as The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy's Earth Edition; and Bob a name which sounds funny.

Small coding projects using Wikipedia's API.


Deletionpedia

I'm currently working on Deletionpedia, which aims to archive pages which have been deleted from Wikipedia. You can use this to spy on my deleted contributions.

UnPlug

I'm best known for writing the UnPlug extension for Firefox, IceWeasel or Songbird. (Mozilla Add-Ons, Website). UnPlug lets you download videos and other media from websites, such as YouTube and Metacafe.

Some things I like

Have all my dreams come true!? Studio Ghibli are making an animation of one of Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea books. Huzzah!

I like ale. You'll probably find me listening to Zakk Wylde, In Strict Confidence, Iron Maiden and Led Zeppelin; but sometimes I listen to The Church, Lisa DeBenedictis, Ekkeko and Steely Dan too.
