Hi I'm '''Hoof Hearted''' (''not'' my [[WikiIndex:RealNames|real name]] . . . it is merely a cryptic nickname I gained as a result of producing excessive <cough> <mark>wind</mark>, or '<mark>gas</mark>' if you are left of the pond!).  I'm from {{tag|England}} in the {{tag|United Kingdom}}, and my dear mother christened me with my first name of <big>'''Sean'''</big> (with the ''correct'' spelling :p ).

Hi, 192.168.144.2, a warm welcome to my user page. I'm Hoof Hearted (not my real name . . . it is merely a cryptic nickname I gained as a result of producing excessive <cough> wind (or 'gas' if you are left of the pond!), due to a genetic disorder, which also makes me allergic to many strong flavours in vegetables. ;-( I am from England in the United Kingdom (UK), and my mother christened me with my first name of Sean (with the correct spelling :p ).
I'd like to think I am contributing in a useful manner here on WikiIndex, although sadly I'm also prone to taking an odd <cough> sabbatical occasionally. :-/ In June 2011, as a reward for my hearty efforts here on WikiIndex, I was 'promoted' to an administrator, and a short while later to bureaucrat – one of the members of a truly great team! If you'd like to talk to me, please leave me a message on my talk page, thanks.

My ToDo list – feel free to dive in and help me out if you wish :-p

About WikiIndex

Current WikiIndex statistics
  • The current server time for WikiIndex is 03:21 (UTC) on Saturday 21 December 2024 (well it was when you loaded this page :-P) . . . click on the orange refresh tab (if you are logged-in) at the top of the page, or press Ctrl+F5 on your keyboard to update the time.
  • WikiIndex is currently running MediaWiki version 1.39.6, which was originally released 31 March 2015 (and we are happy with our geriatric version, thank you!); together with a few plugins, notably Semantic MediaWiki v.2.1.3 (SMW), which means our infoboxes require carefully detailed and accurate 'structured data'.
  • WikiIndex currently has 22,027 article pages of valid content (out of 37,702 total pages) and a total of 285,625 edits, and our WikiIndex community is maintained by a body count of 4 currently active people in the last 30 days, from a total of 12,944 users, since our foundation in 2006.
  • WikiIndex currently has 16 admins, though not all are active; more info here; and are headed by our bureaucrats and staff.
  • Our local WikiIndex interwiki table is able to show how experienced MediaWiki users can create links to external wiki sites (and also general non-wiki websites which are relevant to 'wiki'); and crucually, these 'interwiki links' look visually very similar to the standard default internal wikilink which is used to link to other pages on the same wiki site.

Wiki tips

  • if a subject wiki site specifically uses a lower-case leading letter – maybe on a subject such as iPad, iMacros, iOS, or eBay, use {{DISPLAYTITLE:articleName}} at the top of the article edit box to display the article name correctly with its appropriate lowercase leading letter. You can also use {{DISPLAYTITLE:Talk:articleName}} on any related talk page, and the similar format for all namespaces and their talk pages.
  • an alternative method - {{lcfirst:{{PAGENAME}}}}
  • the {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category name|pages}} magic word will display the actual number of pages within a category, ideally in prose

Internationalising

for the 'Summary' heading, use: {{int:filedesc}};
for the 'Licencing' heading, use: {{int:license-header}}, or [[:Category:License|{{int:license-header}}]].
