ConservapediaI joined Conservapedia in late April 2007 and started seriously editing in August. EditsI have 1928 mainspace edits, 359 template edits, 229 Conservapedia edits, 39 image edits, and a combined 808 talk edits (106 of which went towards template:standardization), plus a few other things (like help edits) and in total I have made 3935 edits.[1] I have also blocked/unblocked over 100 users.[2] ContestIn three contest, I have compiled 1205 points. My record is in the ongoing Conservapedia:Contest4 - where I compiled 732. PagesI'm really trying to push the mainspace number up now. I hope to be in the 1000 range in a couple months. A few of the many articles I've really worked on are Cuba, Marquis de Lafayette, Waves, Eddystone Lighthouse, XYZ Affair, Congressional Page, O.J. Simpson and HTML table formatting. I've also done 25 universities, including UMD, Syracuse, Illinois, UNC, UConn, Penn St., Johns Hopkins, Howard and NIU. Beyond that I like to spread my edits around - and I also vary it. Sometimes I'll be watching the recent changes and I'll do drastic clean up to a low quality article I see, a lot of other times I'll be clicking "Random page" - and fixing up simple aspects like spelling or wikilinks. While I have created or radically changed a few pages - as you can see on the right, many of my page edits are minor. I go through each random page and make small changes to encourage consistency - but primarily because if we just create a bunch of articles and then have a lot of crappy ones that are completely out of wack - then we'll turn into Wikipedia. To some extent, this is also why I work in the template space. TemplatesI have created a few templates, the ones I'm most prod of are: Template:Template, Baseball, Template:USState, Template:NBA, Template:NFLDraft and University (which I put on 89 articles so far (all of what this requires downloading school logos, getting rgb color codes from those logos and going to school athletic sites and retyping the list of sports)). I also reworded the long, much-hated Template:Stub and then created with TK a larger redesign towards the goal of standardization. Most of those templates were relatively minor, but the one I'd like to talk about is Citations missing. The goal of that template was to provide a more clean/elegant version of the uncited templates, which in my opinion were over the top. Key differences are viewable through the color scheme - as citations missing keeps the background color of articles, and is separated merely by a border. Also, as far as technical aspects go, Citations missing has a few more links, some of which depend on what page it's put on. I'm currently working on Roster templates for the National Football League - there were about 6 of them that I thought would be really easy - since people already had a foundation on the pages - but then I realized that I had to drastically change the style and re-work the rosters - so they actually proved to be more work. GoalsMy current goal is to become a sysop. I patrol for vandalism and therefore I need to delete articles fairly frequently, and I also edit templates - most of which are protected - so therefore, without rights, the question is what use am I here? You can vote for me at Conservapedia:Sysop contest/Nominations/Iduan - I appreciate all and any support. References
