This is a Wikipedia user page.
This is not an encyclopedia article. This is a User page. Why on earth are you looking for encyclopedia articles in User space anyways? There's no way I'm notable enough for an article (note the red link, indicating no article about me), and this isn't my real name anyways. So...where was I? Oh, right. User page. Not article. Get it? |
Heyo.
I'm still getting the hang of this user page thing.
I mean, look at my contributions. I've been here that long, and am only now getting to putting this thing into shape. You think it's bad now, you should have seen it before.
Oh, right, you can see how it was before. Well, go ahead. I'll wait.
See? It's much better now, isn't it?
I spend most of my time around WP:AFD and WP:PROD making smartassed comments and judicious opinions, though I sometimes check into the recent changes page...the bots get all the good vandalism, though. I also have a couple of articles I watch, and sometimes I'll help out rewriting an article for a newcomer. if they're the "What do I do to keep this page?" type and not the "YES MY ROCK-SMOKING BASED RELIGION/AFTER SCHOOL GROUP IS NOTABEL!" type.
If you need help with anything, leave me a note, I'll see what I can do for you.
My Wikipedia Thought of the Moment
editI'm back. Or am I? Probably not. But I'm changing this anyways.
Articles I watch and/or have done significant work on
edit- The Wizard (film). This article is my baby. That doesn't mean I own it...we all have to let our little articles grow up someday. But I have been taking care of it for a long time, and if anything bad happens to it, I will go after the offender with a chainsaw.
- Save Toby. Toby is saved, and now his Wikipedia article is too. Did a lot of legwork for this one.
- Eviction. This one needs more work.
- It Takes a Thief (2005 TV series). Good show, sad it was canceled. Pretty easy to take care of, mostly need to undo the wikilinks on the show's hosts (they redirect back to the page).
- Secret Service codename. Rescued this poor baby from AfD. This one is the one I really think will take off if I (or other people) can just find the right sources.
- The Upsidedown. Another AFD I saved, did this for a newcomer whose band barely passed WP:BAND but didn't really know how to source it or write an article. I don't contribute here, since I really know nothing about them, but it is nice to see it's still up.
- Will Seltzer. Created this article about the actor who played the evil PI in The Wizard. Turns out he almost got the Luke Skywalker role that went to Mark "Walking Self-Parody" Hamill. Interesting.
- Abandonia. Really haven't done much here, but I think mentioning it is appropriate. I de-prodded and AFD'd this, and to my utter shock and surprise, the people at the site were calm, helpful, and handled the problems with the article to keep it. I also helped incorporate a merge too.
- 20-20-20 club. Another one I found while prod-patrolling. Chainsawed up this one good, hopefully it won't bloat out again. Watch it mainly to see if someone adds in some more hype.
- Wily & Right no RockBoard: That's Paradise. Because I know I can find some sources for this. Someday.
- Cabin Fever. Rewrote this in the wake of a Mythbusters episode when I found the article there was...well, lousy.
- Jim Braude. Frustrating...I know this article can be fleshed out, but I can't find anything besides, "He's a news anchor".
- Michele McPhee. Another WTKK host like Jim above. Surprised I had to make her page, myself. Both stubs need serious work.
Some other Wikipedia pages of interest (to me)
edit- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Saxetism. Oh, wow, this one was just plain funny. It serves me right for arguing with trolls, though.
- Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Zactaschetti. Best consensus ever.
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Crystal ball. Seemed like a clear delete to me (and if you don't understand, check the date...)
- Wikipedia:Snowball clause. Everyone's favorite!
- Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. If you go anywhere near an AfD, you need to read these. You'll get along much easier.
Random pointless, yet fun, Wiki-fluff

You do a little of this and a little bit of that on pages nobody notices, and thus nobody notices you. Until now. For 3000+ edits, and have no sign of achievement, enjoy your first Barnstar.King Bedford I Seek his grace 03:59, 5 August 2008 (UTC) |
Since I need more space for my userboxes.
