Me before Wikipedia (outdoors; not attached to computer at eyeballs)
Me before Wikipedia (outdoors; not attached to computer at eyeballs)

Elf started working on her Wikipedia addiction in January, 2004. May 7, 2004: Am now 320 on Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits. This is not necessarily a good thing. (July 1: #295. And that's while I'm "trying to cut back". Aug. 8: #288. My ascent is slowing--excellent. Aug 17:#292. Better. Doesn't FEEL like less, but OK. Aug 22: #286; up again! Crud. I blame it on mixed-breed dog getting nominated for featured article.) Sept 21: #271; bad, bad Elf. Sept 22: #265. How is that possible? Give it up--I'm doomed.

Table of contents

Useful pages

My tips on creating new entries

  • Include the bolded term as part of the first sentence, not as a separate preceding line.
  • If the text is shorter than a couple of long paragraphs, that usually means there's a lot more info that *could* go there if someone had the info and the time. This is called a "stub"; you can include the text {{stub}} to draw attention to the page and make it easier for searches for stubs to find (usually people with time to work on content).
  • Try to identify terms that already exist in Wikipedia and add links. I've found that it doesn't take much time if I remember:
    • Most noun articles are stored as singular rather than plural, hence e.g. [[shaman]]s finds the correct link to shaman but still leaves the plural in the text.
    • Capitalization is (usually) important, but you can link to something that's a different form in your sentence by "piping"--looks like this: [[Religious conversion|converts]] links to the existing page Religious conversion but leaves the word converts in the text
    • You can use the Show preview button at the bottom of the edit page to get a preview, including your guesses at links, click on the links to see whether they link anywhere, then use your browser Back button to get back to the edit page and adjust them, etc. until you're ready to Save page.

What do I know, anyway, huh?

axiom-thrust particle disproportionators

...that says We are reconfiguring the axiom-thrust particle disproportionators in order to improve flange density followed by 19 pages of argument about why this is right, wrong, or would be better with m-dashes! :) Thanks, --Nevilley 09:17, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Using m-dashes to reconfigure the axiom-thrust particle disproportionators would be the height of stupidity... Duh! Tuf-Kat 14:15, Jun 4, 2004 (UTC)

I made some edits as User:64.173.10.20 on Sept 7 thinking that I was still logged in; Wiki logged me out sometime between 17:51 and 17:54]].
