==Significant article creations (unpiped) and date of creation== |
|
|
I am credited with creating 117 extant Misplaced Pages articles. I think of the following set as the important ones, the last one in particular: |
|
|
* ] - as in a peatland or bog; created from what had been a disambiguation page on 15 January 2013 (as of 28 October 2015 there were 88 pages on Misplaced Pages which linked to this article; 100-180 views per day) |
|
|
* ] - a long, thin structure on an animal's body, 31 July 2013 (as of 23 July 2017 there were 104 articles containing links to this page; 10-30 views per day) |
|
|
* ] - the mostly-Mexican "Day-of-the-Dead" ritual altar, 24 October 2013 (usually viewed 20-60 times daily but around Halloween gets close to 2,500 views per day; in October of 2016 it received 13,499 views) |
|
|
* ] - the oldest Los Angeles County jail, 21 January 2013 (which was viewed 592 times on 11 August 2015 and 445 times on 28 September 2015, no good idea why) |
|
|
* ] - 21 November 2012 |
|
|
* ] - having command of a ship at sea, 9 November 2012 |
|
|
* ] - as in ], 27 August 2015 |
|
|
* ] - as in the soft furnishing, 29 March 2015 |
|
|
* ] - as in the structure on the deck of a tall ship, 1 December 2010 |
|
|
* ] - 25 September 2015 |
|
|
* ] - as in the Ancient Greek protective device, 20 December 2014 |
|
|
* ] - as in the deep water port of Sierra Leone's Freetown, 4 April 2009 |
|
|
* ] - a summary article on the different types, January 26, 2016 |
|
|
* ] - as in the 1958 ] nuclear excursion, 14 January 2011. On it was viewed over 20,000 times. Super important. |

==Volunteer work== |
|
|
I am an OTRS volunteer, and I assist people with general questions about Misplaced Pages as well as process verification of the identity of people wishing to release the copyrights to their work on Commons under a free license. When I can, I also try to assist with the ] where editors can seek assistance with impartial resolution of their disputes with other editors. Which is surprisingly difficult. |
|
|
|
|
|
==Illustrations== |
|
|
Below is a gallery of images I created and uploaded through Wikimedia Commons using this login or my previous Commons login (KDS444), in no particular order. Some have been considered good enough to become ] and a few of those have been ] for all of the English Misplaced Pages. I have only modest formal training as a graphic artist, but I enjoy the creative process immensely. In April of 2013 I began creating vector-based images using ] instead of my usual Photoshop JPGs, and have never looked back (the gif images, though, those are all still Photoshop creations until Commons can accept and effectively use animated SVG files, and I am sure it's just a matter of time). Want to use one?? See my "Illustrations notice" at the bottom of this page— thanks! |
|
|
|
|
|
I've also put together a help file on Commons to assist would-be graphic artists create .svg files for use on Commons and the various Wikipedias. It can be found under . |
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, and I like writing articles, too! So many dimensions, so little time... A list of those I have at least started (if not necessarily finished) appears under the image gallery in my "article nursery," in their raw ''pre-article'' status (mostly for my own reference— if you want to see the actual current article, don't look here). Below that are some handy reminders for me and some tools I like to use (the Google Books citation creator app, for example, is a Godsend, and now no one has any excuse for creating another unreferenced article on the English Misplaced Pages, ever). |

I like seeing citations. They make me happy. That and, well, apparently the inner parts of worms and molluscs. They make me happy too, though I also draw radiation capsules and sintering kilns and bathymetric maps of the floors of large bodies of water. And dormer windows and fingernails. And Australian spiders. It's a lot of non-sequitors, really. Anyhow, here's the gallery: |
