I am a Wikipedian in Queensland, Australia.
My nickname is derived from a combination of my name and the 1990s computer game Commander Keen, although I haven't played the game extensively.
Wikipedia did you know...[edit]
- ...that you can use google to search just the Wikipedia site. Eg, at Google just use "
site:en.wikipedia.org/ Foo
". - ...if you use Firefox you can go to any Wikipedia article by typing "
wp Article name
" into the address bar. Currently you have to set up a bookmark to do this though. - ...that newcomers can place
{{helpme}}
on their talk page to get assistance. Questions can be anything to do with improving the encyclopedia (technical etc). - ...that many Wikipedians like to communicate via IRC chatrooms. You can often find me in the #wikipedia-en-help chat room on the freenode network. You can try connecting to #wikipedia-en-help via the Web-based client. If you are stuck behind a firewall that doesn't allow IRC (at work/school etc) you can try http://ircatwork.com/,
Server: irc.freenode.net
,Channel: #wikipedia-en-help
- ...that you can use the toolserver tool Nubio to search hundreds of Wikipedia FAQs.
- ...that MediaWiki software developers use Bugzilla to keep track of bugs and feature requests. You can votes for bugs, take a look at a list of the most voted for bugs.
- ...that at the bottom of a user's Special:Contributions page (eg) there are tools to view user rights, articles created and more.
