On Wikipedia

edit

I spend a lot of time editing articles associated with WikiProject Futurama. I occasionally enjoy categorizing uncategorized articles, particularly uncategorized people. I am the original creator of only two articles, Jan Roskam and Barcol hardness test. I shall consider creating another article if I find an area of Wikipedia that is significantly lacking.

I am just coming back from a long wiki-break. While I'm not editing as much as I did in my peak, I am starting to hit up my old haunts again. If there's something you're working on and you think I could be of help then drop me a message on my talk page and I'll be happy to have a look. Apparently while I was out I was also granted reviewer status, I'm sure that will be very exciting if I ever have the opportunity to use that ability.

Achievements

Created
Significant contribution
  • "Space Pilot 3000" The first article I felt like I really pulled from being rather poor to rather good mostly by myself, hopefully it will be the first of many.
  • "Hell Is Other Robots" Most of my work on this article was early on rather than during the actual promotion but I do feel responsible for most of the Production section and the info from the Pinsky book. The real credit goes to User:Cirt who made this what it is today.
  • Futurama I didn't work on this as much as the other two but I feel at least partially responsible for it's current state of being.

The Special Barnstar
I, Chickenmonkey X  sign? , would like to give you, Stardust8212, this barnstar for helping me in my early days as a Wikipedian, being a great Wikipedian in your own right, and being a generally all-around positive force on Wikipedia. That said, and as I have recently returned from a wiki-break of sorts, I hope to see you editing regularly again in the near future. If not, please accept this barnstar whenever you see fit. -- 03:12, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
Do you want to earn a barnstar of your very own?

Tip of the day...
Automating tasks on Wikipedia

Uploading hundreds of files or changing thousands of pages can be tedious. Limited automation is allowed on Wikipedia as long as it follows certain policies. The easiest way is to use AutoWikiBrowser.

Or, you always can grab your favorite scripting language and write a bot, but there is no need to reinvent the wheel: most modern programming languages have a MediaWiki library already written, there is a full list or programming languages and libraries here. Once you have written the code, you can request approval to trial run your bot. Once approved, your bot will be flagged, so it can be hidden from the list of recent changes. Alternatively you can request someone else take care of the whole matter for you.
