Revision as of 10:24, 3 December 2002
I graduated, May 2001, from Messiah College with a double major in Computer Science and Mathematics and a minor in Philosophy. I have worked as the board games guide for About.com and a web developer for the Mind Sports Organisation. I was also the founder and president of the Messiah College games club.
My current interests are Esperanto (and languages in general), Religions, German-style board games (and board games in general), Table tennis and Wikis (and Internet communities in general). I am now travelling in Europe (my travel plans). I also have a webpage at http://amuzulo.babil.komputilo.org/ and a blog at http://amuzulo.livejournal.com/.
I'm also the founder of the Esperanta Vikipedio which, of course is the wikipedia in Esperanto... I changed my username from "Chuck Smith" to "Chuck SMITH" to make it conform with my name on the Esperanto Wikipedia. This should make transition to new software easier.
What I do on Wikipedia
I don't think I'm very good at writing content unless I'm really passionate about something (which I'm told I'm not supposed to do on here). So mostly I link sections of the Wikipedia to make things better interconnected, fix links, split pages, and general wiki management. I also create links to pages and write experts of those pages asking them if they want to write an article.
On the English wikipedia, I mostly work on the board games and the Esperanto language and culture pages. I'm a strong believer of multiplying content instead of adding it.
On the Esperanto wikipedia, I basically just try to make sure people understand the wiki concept and work on promotion, recruitment and keeping things manageable.
On the Meta wikipedia, I bring up ideas for improving the International wikipedia and connecting them together.
On the German and Spanish wikipedias, I lurk. :-)
