Like the fox. My university web page (http://www.wfu.edu/~whapts3/) has links to most of my online presences, including my webcomic (http://fennec.homedns.org/).
I have been at Wikipedia since it was featured on Slashdot around January 20. I became a sysop April 2/3, 2004 (EST/UTC). I tend hang around many meta pages and attempt to perform random useful tasks. :)
I am currently Wikipedia's registered contact with Freenode. That means if you want an IRC user cloak you need to ask me, so I can ask the Freenode staff. Please place confirmation messages here.
Wiki-Related News
- March 28 2005: Was quoted in the Wall Street Journal about Wikipedia. Page B1, the little technology column bit. It's a dumb quote, but meh. :) -Fennec (はさばくのきつね) 03:05, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Nov 14 2004: It's been a while since I posted in this section... Anyway. I'm running for Arbcom. Vote for me when the time comes. - Fennec (はさばくのきつね) 05:11, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- May 7 2004: I just found out that my neighbors have an unsecured wireless access point. Guess how I found out? Here's a hint: I was sitting on my living room couch at the time. :) If this remains in place, it bodes well for my editing over the summer. If not... ah well, I'll take a temporary boost to my connectivity, I suppose. (The neighbors ended this semester of college the same time I did.) - Fennec 03:40, May 8, 2004 (UTC)
- Apr 29 2004: Not quite wiki-related, but I got a spiffy new Gmail account! The name is 'Fennec'.
- Apr 03 2004: I am now a sysop. Fun stuff.
- Mar 30 2004: The pictures of Orson Scott Card and one of Wait Chapel are up. I also edited MediaWiki:dyk (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=MediaWiki:Dyk&oldid=2991209) for my first time... mmm, Klondike bars... chicken sexers...
Mar 26 2004: Vote for me as an admin, wouldya? :)- Update: You're too late. The sun has already set!
- Mar 23 2004: Orson Scott Card spoke with my freshman seminar class. I've got pictures.... :) One should soon grace his article as well. Yay.
- Mar 10 2004: Although the situation seems to have calmed significantly I've been up to my (very long) ears attempting to help keep track of User:Bird and the Bird/Brain affair (the name of which was coined by me). This user, and his flock of sock puppets, and his gaggle of IP addresses, posted some rather angry-sounding comments at me and many others, coining in the process what appears to be a new term, "wikiracist", which has been fairly liberally applied. Wow... my first real fan/troll/thing. I must be doing something right. :)
- Jan 29 2004: TGIF mentioned the Kevin and Kell article on the K&K mailing list, and apparently Bill Holbrook will mention it in the comic's next weekly news update. Wow. He says it's stunning. I find that stunning.
