User talk:Tractor~enwiki

This is tractor's talk page. If you know me as tractor, tractorBeam, extractor or one of my other varients you probably saw me on Freenode IRC, and came here to find out more. Cool! Thanks! I'm not sockpuppetting or spoofing but my early Wikipedia name was Quinobi and these days I prefer CQ. Tractor will someday be an IRC bot with my some of my personality ;)

Welcome!

Hi, Tractor~enwiki, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the five pillars of Wikipedia. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page.

Additional tips

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!

If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
You can sign your name using three tildes, like — [[User:Ilyanep|<span style="color:gray;">Ilγαηερ</span>]] [[User talk:Ilyanep|<span style="color: #333333;">(Tαlκ)</span>]]. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.

Tractor the human

Tractor has appeared on IRC Freenode for many years. The person you were talking with is Charley Quinton who is the developer of the tractorbot from the OzoneFarm project.

tractor the bot

This bot does not edit Wikipedia content. Any editing done by this User was done by Quinobi manually. There is no bot yet. Only the idea for one. Please read all of this stuff before posting in here:

Discussion

This discussion is about developing the tractorbot for IRC-enabled server/client interaction and the human interface for using it. If that's not on your mind, you may be in the wrong place. Quinobi 20:38, 11 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The Perl Object Environment

It wasn't until my tiny group (#ozonefarm) installed our own copy of MediaWiki that I saw firsthand what heartbreak the founding group (#wikimedia-tech) had to deal with during the birth of the Wikipedia in the context of vandalism. I think POE (#poe) may hold some answers. (but it's only an intuitive hypothesis) -- Tractor 12:47, 23 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, tractor .. will have to edit in stages.. • Q ^#o • 17:04, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Tractor. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tractor~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
