Hersfold...

[edit]

Hello! My name is Hersfold. Welcome to my user page! While I have mostly retired from Wikipedia, I still pop in from time to time. If you need to contact me for any reason, the best way to do so is via email at Special:Emailuser/Hersfold. If you correct any vandalism to this page, thank you in advance!

Thanks for visiting, Hersfold ^(t/a/c)

My work on Wikipedia

I was an administrator on the English Language Wikipedia for about five years (RfA), a bureaucrat for over a year and a half, a checkuser for three and a half years, and twice a member of the Arbitration Committee.

Most of my work on Wikipedia was done in the background, keeping things running smoothly so that editors can continue to improve the project without disruption. I was a Recent Changes and New Pages patroller, checking for vandalism and inappropriate pages. I've worked with Sebastian to update the coding on WP:UTM to include the tooltip templates he designed, to make using the vandalism warning templates and other frequently used talk page messages much easier. On the more administrative side of things, I reviewed unblock requests regularly, and often stopped by WP:RFPP and WP:PER to see if any protection-related work needs doing. As a checkuser, I also investigated sockpuppetry investigations and carried out other checks as needed. I also frequently checked the Help Desk and the {{helpme}} category for newcomers and the occasional oldtimer that needed a question answered.

Articles that I've done substantial work on include Carcross Desert (DYK), Hood Mockingbird (DYK), Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park, and Bertrand Russell.

While I've largely retired from the project, I do still maintain User:HersfoldArbClerkBot and an associated IRC bot for the Arbitration Committee's clerk corps, to assist them with management of evidence and other arbitration case pages.
