Article Contributions

What I mainly do for articles is remove vandalism and cleanup a bit.

Occasionally in my daily course of checking the file links for Image:Example.jpg, I come across a really bad article in need of attention written by a very new user - that is usually how the example.jpg gets on there: from the new user who wrote it. So then, after I have removed this example.jpg and others (such as bold text) I will go back and edit it again, completely rewriting it. Check my contribs for something like "rewrite to: some description about my rewrite".

Bots/Scripts

I have written multiple wikimedia-related bots, two of which edit wikipedia.

Here is a list of wikimedia-related bots or scripts that I have written:

Bot Name	Description	More info
Spotlight bot	has multiple parsing functions with an interface over irc, and edits wikipedia to update the Spotlight subpages and the article talk pages.	User:GeorgeMoneyBot
Clerk bot	Does not edit wiki, but parses checkuser cases and other things.	here
Spamdabot	A router/server bot for the m:Spamda client. Basically distributes and manages messages for the client.	m:Spamda
Watchbot	You give it a page, regex of pages, user, regex of users, summary, or regex of summary, and it will match that against every single edit made to wiki, and report it to irc if there is a match. You can even feed it your watchlist, so any page that is edited on your watchlist gets reported.	Contact me.
Backup helpme bot	This is for when the toolserver is down so the normal helpme bot is not up. It is not a copy of helpmebot, but completely written from scratch with the same functionality.	WP:NUH
Archive bot	Can archive any talk page thread older than x days.	Contact me.
Status bot	Status changer.	User:GeorgeMoneyBot-status
Other	I have also written many one-time bots run by other people.

Picture of the Day

Picture of the day

A daguerreotype of the United States Capitol in 1846, with the original green copper dome as designed by Charles Bulfinch. Over time, extensions to both the north and south wings, made to accommodate the addition of new states to the Union, made the dome aesthetically displeasing, and as a result, it was replaced by a white cast iron dome which was completed in 1866.
