User:Anomie

Manual edits only Including bots

Welcome to the User page of Anomie. Some but not all of the Anomies you may encounter around the Internet are me.

Interests
My Wikipedia-related interests include video game systems from the 16-bit era, protected edit requests (particularly to templates), various other technical workings, and taking care of various tasks with my bot, AnomieBOT. I also submit bugs to MediaWiki's bugzilla MediaWiki's bug tracker and patches to Gerrit, and if I really feel like it I'll occasionally convert an image to SVG. If you need to know something about the SNES or have an interesting bot task, I may be your person.

Someday, if I ever get motivated enough, I would like to rewrite WP:OR, WP:RS, and WP:V. Even though the rewrites would probably stay as essays in my userspace forever.

"Censorship" user scripts
At various times, people have requested scripts that will censor "offensive" content of some type. These scripts do so, for a broad definition of "offensive".
 * User:Anomie/censorship – A script to hide offensive text in Wikipedia.
 * User:Anomie/hide-images – A script to hide offensive images in Wikipedia.
 * User:Anomie/hidespoilers – A script to hide all spoilers in articles on Wikipedia.

Bot requests
I watch WP:BOTREQ, or you could make the request on my talk page or the bot's talk page. I don't have a whole lot of time for bot tasks these days, but if you have something particularly interesting please let me know!

History
Many years ago, I decided "anomie" would be a nice name for a computer. A few years later, I had decided to abandon my old 'net handle, and I couldn't come up with a new one I liked; in the interim, I borrowed the name of my computer. I never did come up with a new handle, I'm just "anomie" now.

While the contrast between the definition of "anomie" and the nature of a computer is somewhat amusing, when it comes to me it's just a name.
