[edit] Welcome

Welcome to my user page.

[edit] Main

• I run a blog on a variety of topics, mostly technical.
• I read a lot of articles.
• I don't like self-proclaimed 'Wikipediholics', or self-diagnosed Aspies. So basically, 90% of the editors here.
  • I too went through this embarassing phase, hence the existance of this userpage. Please don't look at the history.
• I support keeping the Encyclopedia Dramatica article, for great lulz.

[edit] Works in progress

• Programming HP Calculators, a wikibook on HP-BASIC I've written basically by myself

[edit] Useful links

• Wikipedia markup
  • Table syntax - wiki pipe markup
    • XHTML to wiki tables conversion script on uni-bonn.de
  • Image syntax
• Mirror on my server of User:Gargaj's PHP edit counter (source)
  • My editcount.
• List of templates available for use on Wikipedia, including a list of templates for the user namespace.
• WikiProject on my home city of Perth, Western Australia
• My sig tutorial, for custom '~~~' signatures on Wikipedia, like this: splintax ^(talk) 05:51, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Significant contributions

• Programming HP Calculators, a currently incomplete wikibook that I've been working on
• Perth Royal Show, an article which I started and added a significant amount of information to, from scratch
• BitTorrent-related articles - I've been cleaning up and watching a fair amount of these, because many of them seem to have been created by users who really don't know much about the protocol. Also, a lot of people are spamming links to their trackers on Wikipedia, which I've been trying to prevent.
