Perks of not being anonymous: I can track my edits, and make minor edits.

I'm hesitant to upgrade my Wikipedia:Babel ratings to en-4 and fi-4 without some formal certification. Maybe I'll take a test one of these years.

I also had the Template:User punctuation, Template:User its2, and Template:User anal-4 userboxes in the Babel list, but I took them out for aesthetic reasons.

Hysterical Raisins

Looks like I signed up for Wikipedia in August 2006 (also Swedish Wikipedia in September 2006 and Finnish Wikipedia in March 2007). I have a good number of smaller anonymous edits before then. Actually, I've tried to go back and leave a mark on the same articles by searching for IP addresses I have used, and finding something to improve on pages I had touched before I signed up.

I originally discovered wikis in 2002 or so, and have at various times contributed to

• Ward Cunninghams' original wiki
• MeatballWiki
• UseModWiki
• twiki.org
• emacswiki.org
• Susning.nu, until the 2004 meltdown
  • Claim to fame: the frequently corrected typos page there (in Swedish, obviously). The heir at the Swedish Wikipedia is the bot Doddebot

In most of those wikis, there isn't much trace of me, susning.nu being the exception.

I typically do bursts, then disappear for months or years. I would expect that pattern to repeat here, too.

I really really tried to not sign up for Wikipedia. I really really tried to not add this section on my user page. I am apparently a weak character.

Annotate / Blame feature

It would be nice if you could find out from a page's history when a particular phrase was added or removed, but the bug for this is still not resolved. Perhaps somebody could even hack up a user script? (Challenging, but perhaps still doable.)

Research Notes

Maybe not enough to start an article just yet.
