Hosta

I'm employed by the Wikimedia Foundation as a developer and system administrator. I became a Wikipedia editor on October 11, 2002, and began volunteer development work about a year later. My email address is tstarling at wikimedia.org.

I live on the Central Coast of New South Wales with my wife Angela and two daughters.

Various subpages mostly dating from 2002-2004 when I was an active editor:

• List of contributions.
• /Mapping has been moved back to Talk:Cartographic Congress. I had intended the subpage to be just an archive of my work, but since it still has active discussion, it should be in the talk namespace.
• /Inorganic compound project.
• /Protected page list
• /Greetings
• Not really in progress anymore: a new Special:Movepage
• /Skeptical solicitation has now been moved to Wikipedia:Skeptical solicitation.
• Picture of me hiding behind my non-US residence. See User talk:Joe Canuck
• /Reddi watchlist -- human edited version
• /Reddi watchlist SQL -- a list of articles Reddi has touched
• How to find out if a user is watching a page:
  • SELECT wl_title FROM watchlist,user WHERE wl_user=user_id AND user_name='xxxx' AND wl_title='xxxx'
• /Richardchilton IRC log
• /Feature poll
• /Password matches
• /IP-based evidence
• /Stub thresholds
• Slides from Berlin
• /List of crackpot theories
• /Free software
• /Gpg4win tutorial

For purposes of COI disclosure, I note that John Henry Starling was my great-grandfather.

Unless otherwise stated, any edit to Wikimedia projects by myself is an act of a regular member of the community and administrator, not a legal or official action.
