Introduction

Pentium5dot1 [insert other username idea here][1] is a suspected-Aspie[2] netizen who is supposed to be occupied with Caltech homework a vast majority of the time. He chose this Internet nickname many years ago, before Wikipedia was even a pipe dream. Needless to say, Wikipedia blocked him anyway[3]. He insists that he has no conscious intention to promote the Intel Pentium line of microprocessors. What he means to say is that he is not quite as much of a computer geek as his name implies.

Because of his...um, mental issues, he lacks the spine needed to be a all-star Uncyclopedia editor, but you can't blame him for trying. Being a possible Aspie, he also spends a lot of time thinking about pedantic issues, such as his hard-line viewpoint about using the {{Wikipedia}} template early and often. See Advisory to other editors below.

Advisory to other editors

  • I may be slightly inconsistent in what I choose to mark as a minor edit.
  • I am likely to panic when my edits are reverted, due to my impression that I am subject to punishment. If you need to revert an edit of mine that is substantial in length or in misconduct, I would greatly appreciate it if you could notify me on my user talk.
  • I am a mergist/redirectionist leaning ever-so-slightly deletionist. (Note that this only applies here on Uncyclopedia and may not accurately describe future activities on Wikipedia.)
  • I tend to be ineffectual at cleaning up articles that are doomed to deletion.
  • In general, I am an UncycloGnome, not an UncycloFairy. See also Other tasks.

Accomplishments and Responsibilities

Articles

Under construction

Other tasks

  • Catching vandalism on my frequently perused articles
  • Random-page and (less often) new-page patrolling, leading mainly to QVFD nominations
  • Template maintenance (mainly wording and wikilinking)
  • For that matter, article maintenance regarding wording and wikilinking
  • Making my voice heard in policy and VFD discussions

Some special notes on the kind of cleanup I do:

  • I will remove redlinked {{whoops}} on sight.
  • I will occasionally type "latex reported a failure" into an external search engine and attempt to clean up any Uncyclopedia results that appear. Since I am not a LaTeX expert, I may simply remove the offending formula if it does not contribute significantly to the humor.
    Note: The format of LaTeX error messages may have changed; try searching for "failed to parse" site:uncyclopedia.wikia.com instead. This will appear in the article in bold red text.

Subsections

Note: I do not watch the talk pages of these subpages very closely. If it is important, please use my main user talk page. *

Licensing

I hereby release all my textual contributions into the public domain. This applies retroactively to the extent enforceable by United States law.

This may not necessarily apply to images; see the template on the image page for the specific image in question.

I first placed this licensing information on my user page 22:45 (PDT?), 20 July 2007, and I last made substantive changes to it 11:12 (PDT?), September 25, 2009.

Although I lack the resources to ensure full enforcement (i.e. IANAL), please try to keep this information in mind and exercise utmost respect.

  1. I am also known as eighty5cacao or variants thereof on various forums. (85% is the highest cacao content of any chocolate product I had consumed as of the time I came up with the username.) See also note #3 below.
  2. This is not an official diagnosis.
  3. Since my block, the username policy was loosened and re-tightened. For relevant policy discussion, see wikipedia:Wikipedia talk:Username policy/Blatant Promotion RfC. It is no longer practical for me to contest the block, but I have yet to register a new Wikipedia account. I will probably be doing that soon, but the account name will not be Eighty5cacao, and I will not disclose it here.
