User:Eludium-q36
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eludium Q-36 has now suspended involvement with the Wikipedia project, following the decision to implement the attribute in article-space. This is a clear admission that the project is over-run with spammers, and is a slap in the face for everyone who spent time removing irrelevant links. A necessary, but not sufficient, condition for this suspension to end is for the attribute to be disabled in article space.
Eludium Q-36 contributed between June 2006 and January 2007.
The user defended that which others deem "trivia", and insisted that the published policies were followed to the letter. There was a very low tolerance for vandalism and poorly-structured articles. The user's preferred edit style was to work offline to a high standard, then submit as one edit; the user's substantive information-to-edit-count ratio may be lower than average. Eludium Q-36 believes that all user profiles should be written in the third person, but doesn't expect that to be a common view.
The user regularly reviewed articles for deletion and articles for wikification. It would be appreciated if other editors would appreciate the difference between wikification (applying wiki tags to existing words) and the infinitely sexier copy editing (re-writing chunks of articles so that they make sense). It would really be appreciated if editors would remove the WIKIFY tags when an article is done.
Amongst the contributions that Eludium Q-36 deems most significant are:
- Complete re-writes Circular 10/65, Jyrki Niskanen
- Significant re-writes Cliwoc, South High School (Salt Lake City), Amina Haq, John Knowles Fitch
- Research Priory Community School, Gaytime TV, Gavin Barwell, Tim Culley (subsequently redirected with content removed)
- Hawkish watching Raven (game show), VIN etching
In development at the time Eludium-q36 left the project: Raven re-write; Deal or No Deal (UK game show) Records
