I've started the following pages (not including stubs): Light-dependent resistor - Computational physics - Band gap - Aluminium gallium arsenide - List of compounds - Laser diode - Varistor - Electron hole - Gallium arsenide - Saintstephen - Valence band - University of New South Wales - Isaac Newton/Early Life and Achievements - Isaac Newton/The First 15 Years as Lucasian Professor - Isaac Newton/Authoring Principia - Isaac Newton/Later Life -- The Mint and the Royal Society - Torque/Angular momentum proof - Effective mass - Magnetic field - Fermi energy - Electrical conduction - Albertanism (Albertanism archive) - Ben Folds Five - Carl Gustav Jakob Jacobi - William Prout - Henry Briggs - Evangelista Torricelli - Brook Taylor - Charles-Augustin de Coulomb - Marie Cornu - George Gabriel Stokes - Willebrord Snell - Hippolyte Fizeau - Leon Foucault - Myxomatosis - Win32s - Lake Macquarie - Morisset - List of speculative or fringe theories - Burke and Wills expedition - Genyornis - Andrew Bartlett - Kane quantum computer

And made a significant contribution to these pages (including rewrites): Field effect transistor - Photodiode - Chemical compound - Conservation of mass - Conduction band - Boltzmann constant - Electric field - Torque - Potash - Sodium chloride - Fermi-Dirac statistics - Direct bandgap - Indirect bandgap - Electrodynamics - Linear polarization - Circular polarization - Elliptical polarization - Muonium - Earl Doherty - David Brewster - Frankenstein - GDI - List of computing topics - T-symmetry - Random walk Monte Carlo - Music lessons - Bright - History of East Timor - Monte Carlo method - SPC - Wikipedia:Press coverage - Albedo - Reciprocal System of Theory - History of Australia - Wikipedia:Utilities - Quantum Zeno effect

I compiled the data for the inorganic property tables and the Australian states tables and their associated images.

Images and sounds I've created: Image:PHEMT_cross_section.png - Image:Darlington_configuration.png - Image:Moment_arm.png - Image:Semiconductor_band_structure_(lots_of_bands).png - Image:accelerating electron.png - Image:Articles per day 20030418.png - Image:Articles per day 20030418 scale 200.png - Image:Harmonics_110x16.ogg - Image:Comparison 550Hz - 554Hz.ogg - Image:Major third comparison.ogg - Image:Maple leaf rag.ogg

Here are some programming tasks that I'm at least partially responsible for:

  • Salted password hashes, authentication tokens
  • Dynamic dates
  • Incremental link table updates
  • Sysop ability to block logged in users and ranges, variable expiry time, block log
  • MediaWiki namespace
  • Templates
  • Recent changes overhaul including move page annotation
  • Special:Boardvote, Special:Sitematrix
  • Enhanced (&bot=1) rollback
  • "Steward" access level
  • Automatic wiki creation
  • "Magic words" -- language specific customisation of strings such as "#redirect"
  • Special page module hook, various minor special pages
  • HTML-like parser module hook
  • Special:FindSpam
  • Sysop-editable spam blacklist (m:Spam blacklist)
  • <includeonly> and <noinclude>
  • Other stuff (I don't update this list anymore)
