Admin Stuff

My admin actions are open for examination:

  • Blocked - subpage to keep track of users that I've blocked and want to keep an eye on for one reason or the other.

Requests for adminship

You can view my voting rationale here. Link for self-use: [[User:Petros471/RfA criteria|my RfA criteria]]

Considering becoming an admin? Feel free to ask me if I think you'd be suitable. When I think you'd be ready (I might provide some suggestions before that) I'd be happy to nominate you. ( RFA reviews subpage)

About me

As Femto says: "Male, European, and already paranoid about giving away this much information." Well I'm a bit less paranoid than he is, so I can tell you I'm male, British, and have an age of somewhere between 10 and 100. Also if you're really interested I've released rather more than that out to the big world wide web.

Contact!
The best way to contact me is usually by leaving a new message on my talk page. There's nothing like a big orange bar to get my attention, and messages there will probably get the fastest response. You can also email me. I will try to reply as soon as possible (I reserve the right to not reply to personal attacks or other emails of that nature). However expect my response to be slower than messages to my talk page, and preferably leave email to messages that have a good reason to be private (or when you can't edit my talk page because of a block). Please include your Wikipedia username so I know who you are. Thanks.

Important: If you are emailing me about a block, make sure you include your username (if applicable), IP address and the block reason.

What I do on Wikipedia

In general I:



What are portals? "Doorways to knowledge." Wikipedia's coverage of subjects can be extensive (mathematics, for example, is covered by tens of thousands of articles on Wikipedia). Portals are an alternative entry to a subject (besides its main article), and to that subject's coverage in the encyclopedia, in a way similar to how the Main Page provides sample fare from Wikipedia as a whole.

Portals may include features such as Selected article sections, Selected image, news, points of interest (Did you know?, Anniversaries), and links to related Wikimedia. Portals are more diverse than the Main page, and may include features such as panoramic banners, slide shows, category trees, topics lists, and whatever else portal designers can come up with.

A secondary purpose of portals is to provide bridges between reading and editing, and between the encyclopedia and the Wikipedia community. They may provide links to the related WikiProjects, Wikipedia's Reference desk, and so on. Portals are a hybrid between encyclopedia pages and project pages, and occupy their own special namespace, the Portal namespace. Therefore, all portal titles are preceded by the prefix "Portal:"

The list of all completed portals is Portal:Contents/Portals. A list of all portals, including those under construction, can be found at Category:All portals. The Portals WikiProject is dedicated to collaboratively building and maintaining portals, and further expanding on the Portal concept, such as with automated features, and is always looking for new participants.
