However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results. ---Winston Churchill (1874-1965)
I am a computer programmer, with a concentration in user interface design and database programming. I pushed for several improvements in MediaWiki, notably the feature that lets blocked users edit their own talk page; and I got them to program MediaWiki extension ParserFunctions, which enables users to perform simple mathematical computations. (My Template:Age is embedded in thousands of Wikipedia biography pages.)
I am strong (if not vociferous!) advocate of neutrality in encyclopedia articles, particularly when they touch upon controversies of great public import.
I am also a sysop at Conservapedia (where I was voted in unanimously by the student board after only 6 days there).
I work well with young people, encouraging them to be polite and work hard for the common goal of writing clear, factual, interesting and relevant articles.
