==Language fluency box templates for user pages==
Hi Chris,
I've seen boxes on user pages on other wikis that describe the user's language fluency. I wanted to add one of those to [[User:Kili]]'s page, and came to your page to grab the template. Surprise!  Not there.  How do you feel about these templates?  I'm biased toward all multilingual folks jumping in with that, partly as a means to help build out our non-English connections, perhaps make us more welcoming?  [[User:Curtbeckmann|CurtB]] 09:19, 16 February 2011 (PST)

Edits to Appropedia by me are as a regular member of the community, and sometimes as an admin.
Unless otherwise stated, they are not legal or official actions as a director of the Appropedia Foundation.

I know this box is ugly. If you know how to make it look better, feel free :-).

I'm an Australian engineer with a passion for sharing knowledge to make a better world, and I've been involved in Appropedia since the very early days. I spend most of my time in Asia, especially Indonesia.

What I'm doing here

I'm an admin on Appropedia, and I help to...

Specific tasks I'm focused on now:

  • Finding funding
  • Ekopedia merger
  • Porting - esp finding help in converting appropriate PDF documents and web pages to MediaWiki markup.

My favorite videos (on appropriate technology etc) are on my Youtube homepage.

I manage Appropedia's Identica account and Twitter account, and my personal Identica account and Twitter account. Below are the Twitter feeds:

Wikiholism alert
"My username is Chriswaterguy and I am a wikiholic.W"
  • I cancelled my plans to live and work in China when I learnt they blocked Wikipedia.
  • I often read (non-fiction) books and mark things that I want to put into Wikipedia.
  • I'm a registered user of about 15 wikis.

Yes I'm an addict. No, it's not a problem. I'm going to take a break, just as soon as I finish editing this...

Maybe I need a 12 step programW...

  1. We admitted we were powerlessW over wiki-editing and our lives had become unmanageable.
  2. Came to believeW that a power greater than ourselvesW could restore us to sanityW.
  3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood HimW/HerW/ItW/Them.W
  4. When that failed, we took responsibility for our own actions.
  5. Admitted the Wexact nature of our wrongs.
  6. Left the computer occasionally, in order to meet attractive people and flirt with them.
  7. Sought through prayerW and meditationW to improve our conscious contact Wwith God as we understood Her,W praying only for Wknowledge of Her will for usW and the powerW to carry that out.
  8. Having had a spiritual awakeningW as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this messageW to wikiholics.W
  9. Realised the irony of creating this notice.
  10. Learnt to count.

Language fluency box templates for user pages

Hi Chris,

I've seen boxes on user pages on other wikis that describe the user's language fluency. I wanted to add one of those to User:Kili's page, and came to your page to grab the template. Surprise! Not there. How do you feel about these templates? I'm biased toward all multilingual folks jumping in with that, partly as a means to help build out our non-English connections, perhaps make us more welcoming? CurtB 09:19, 16 February 2011 (PST)
