I am Issac Duan of Arlington, Virginia - a suburb right next to the District of Columbia.

Conservapedia

I joined Conservapedia in late April 2007 and started seriously editing in August.

Edits

I have 868 mainspace edits, 189 template edits, 68 Conservapedia edits and a combined 448 talk edits (106 of which went towards template:standardization), plus a few other things and in total I have made 1981 edits.[1] I have also blocked about 50 users.[2]

Pages

I'm really trying to push the mainspace number up now. I hope to be in the 1000 range in a couple months. A few of the many articles I've really worked on are Cuba, Marquis de Lafayette, Waves, Eddystone Lighthouse, O.J. Simpson and HTML table formatting. Beyond that I like to spread my edits around - and I also vary it. Sometimes I'll be watching the recent changes and I'll do drastic clean up to a low quality article I see, a lot of other times I'll be clicking "Random page" - and fixing up simple aspects like spelling or wikilinks.

While I have created or radically changed a few pages - as you can see on the right, most of my page edits are minor. I go through each random page and make small changes to encourage consistency - but primarily because if we just create a bunch of articles and then have a lot of crappy ones that are completely out of wack - then we'll turn into Wikipedia. To some extent, this is also why I work in the template space.

Templates

I have created a few templates, Citations missing, Template doc inline, Template doc, Plainlink, Cite web, Template:Template, Baseball and Cite news. I also reworded the long, much-hated Template:Stub and then created with TK a larger redesign towards the goal of standardization. Most of those templates were relatively minor, but the one I'd like to talk about is Citations missing. The goal of that template was to provide a more clean/elegant version of the uncited templates, which in my opinion were over the top. Key differences are viewable through the color scheme - as citations missing keeps the background color of articles, and is separated merely by a border. Also, as far as technical aspects go, Citations missing has a few more links, some of which depend on what page it's put on.

I'm currently working on Roster templates for the National Football League - there were about 6 of them that I thought would be really easy - since people already had a foundation on the pages - but then I realized that I had to drastically change the style and re-work the rosters - so they actually proved to be more work.

Goals

My current goal is to garner enough edits to become an admin at conservapedia. I'm one of those few people that enjoy going through categories, and the ability to delete is practically crucial for some of them. One of my activities used to be to go through the deletion category and try and clean up the pages as much as possible (depending on the page - if the page was of low quality I would try to clean it up, if it was of no quality then I wouldn't bother), and it just seemed like a waste to go through all of those and just ignore the ones I knew should be deleted. I'll probably restart that activity soon though, but currently everything is very hectic in my life, so likely not in the immediate future.
