User:Lumenos

From WikiIndex
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Lately I've been trying to establish some consensus on clear policies here at WikiIndex. I'm not a sysop and have no special powers here other than "reason" attention whoring...

I am a sysop at a few wikis, including Lumeniki and RationalWiki, although I have to admit the latter is just a bit of a misnomer. I would have gone with maybe "PassionateWiki" or perhaps "EmphaticWiki", but that's just me. :-) (By the way, a very active bureaucrat from RationalWiki wants you to know that, ""RationalWiki has about 3,197 registered users, of which 359 (or 11.23%) have Sysops rights, which are awarded very liberally by the bureaucrats." from RationalWiki Nx 09:07, 4 September 2009 (EDT)" I (Lumenos) tried to let them edit my user page here but apparently I am not able to lower the moral force field, protecting it. However I received permission to quote this particular bureaucrat and for that I am grateful. It might also be worth noting that the site became unavailable a few days after my arrival. A coincidence? Perhaps... and then the same thing happened at WikiSynergy.)

Lumeniki gets a little more in-depth on the serious subjects. Here is my user page at Lumeniki. Using advanced cloaking techniques, wandalism is nearly unheard of. There is just this one ***hole who keeps mixing all this weird kooky stuff in with our serious philosophy and backyard solar steam electricity generation information.

About that RationalWiki talk page

I've been reading the RationalWiki talk page, and it appears that I may have been mistaken on the Similar Wikis debate map. One thing many editors did not appreciate. However I have moved the incomplete debate maps to a subpage, so as not to cause any more confusion. Please don't let my fumbling madness there discourage you from reading the Wikipedia vs RationalWiki debate. I'm still quite proud of that one. (See you got to let them think they can win or they won't bother trying.)

How to contact Lumenos

I should be reachable eventually through the following ways:

  • "Privately":
    • Through this MediaWiki email function of Wikipedia or my wikis email (that goes to my "private" email address, which I plan to keep "using forevar" although I don't check this for months at a time unless I am expecting something).
    • My user account with the name Lumenos is on all of the following wikis/forums and should be connected to my "disposable" email address (to prevent spam) which I often check when I sign up for a new forum, wiki or something: Liberapedia, WikiIndex, Encyclopediadramatica (warning this site rumored to contain or link to browser exploits or stenographically hidden child porn), BioPod forum. (Lumenos 01:38, 31 August 2009 (EDT) Check here for more recent information of where I am on the Internet.)
      • These should be back online soon: RationalWiki, RationalWikiWiki, or the RationalWiki forum.
      • (Note you can find this email function by going to my user page and looking in the toolbox, in the left column.)
  • Real-time communication:
    • I prefer a chat room that includes voice chat, so long as these do not have increased security risks.
