About me
[edit | edit source]- Yes, my real name is Mike
- Yes, I am a lifeguard
- I have a bot account using pywikipediabot.
- My original reason for coming to Wikibooks was to bring sanity to First Aid, which is now a featured book.
- I've made a semi-canonical PDF version, but I haven't used it in any courses yet. It will be updated as I figure out what works and what doesn't.
- I've put together Subject:First aid, which lists First Aid along with other stuff that deals with the subject
- I've also started Wikijunior:Water Safety, which is currently on the backburner. I do intend to finish it eventually. Same goes for Sensory Neuroscience: Hearing and speech and Knots.
- I've written an essay about integrity.
- I am currently an admin, CheckUser and 'crat here, as well as other roles on Meta (and a few other wikis). Most recently, I was elected as a steward. Since this is one of my home wikis, I am not permitted to take action here as a steward.
- My main tasks are currently keeping the cleanup backlogs just this side of the apocalypse.
{{Backlog}}
shows the tasks where non-admins can help with these backlogs. - My main challenges are vandalism (mostly bad page creation); keeping up with new page patrol and verifying media uploads; and copyvios (especially in the cookbook).
- If you are a vandal, you'll get one warning. If you're particularly vulgar, you won't even get that.
- My main tasks are currently keeping the cleanup backlogs just this side of the apocalypse.
- I have rather strong views on rights. If you need them, are trusted, and active, you should have them. You only need the tools while you meet those requirements - if you're no longer trusted, active, or don't need them you shouldn't have them.
- This is the correct reaction to removal of admin tools for inactivity.
