About me

[edit]

I am currently finishing up my last year as an Information Sciences and Technology major at the Pennsylvania State University (University Park campus). I've been performing with the Penn State Blue Band for the past four years and have been playing the trumpet for twelve years now.

More to come soon as I get time to mess around with this page in between copy editing, monitoring recent changes, fighting vandals, and tinkering with random pages I come across that I happen to know bits and pieces about.

Tip of the day...
Wikipedia has 34 sections, called namespaces

The encyclopedia proper is the main namespace and contains all of Wikipedia's encyclopedia articles. All of the other namespaces have prefixes, which must be included (followed by a colon) at the beginning of links to pages in those namespaces in order for those links to work. Otherwise, the links will point to the main namespace, which has no prefix.

Currently, Wikipedia has 30 namespaces: 14 subject namespaces, 14 corresponding talk namespaces, and 2 virtual namespaces.

The namespaces (by prefix) are:

  1. Main/Article (no prefix), Talk:
  2. User:, User talk:
  3. Wikipedia:, Wikipedia talk:
  4. File:, File talk:
  5. MediaWiki:, MediaWiki talk:
  6. Template:, Template talk:
  7. Help:, Help talk:
  8. Category:, Category talk:
  9. Portal:, Portal talk:
  10. Book:, Book talk:
  11. Draft:, Draft talk:
  12. Timedtext:, Timedtext talk:
  13. Module:, Module talk:
  14. Event:, Event talk:

The virtual namespaces are:

  1. Media:
  2. Special:

In any given namespace there can only be one page with a particular name.
