User:DESiegel

I have been editing on Wikipedia since 7 February 2005.

I support Wikipedia:Process is Important and I urge all wikipedians to read it and consider it before undertaking out-of-process actions, particularly in regard to administrative functions.

I am interested in legal topics, and science fiction and fantasy, as well as various other subjects. I am a professional APL programmer, and I have been the chair of ACM's SIGAPL.

Adminship

As of 6 October 2005, I am an admin (janitor) here on the english-language Wikipedia. So if you have a problem that I might be able to help you with, or if you think I have made any mistake in my carrying out admin responsibilities, or in my use of the admin tools, please leave me a note on my talk page.

Typos

I am a poor typist when typing at speed (I am particularly prone to two-character transpositions), and my editing setup does not make it easy for me to spell-check my wkipedia edits. (I routinely spell-check most other things I write.) I do spell-check major edits off line, but I generally do not spell-check smaller edits nor talk page posts. I apologize for any unclarity or cleanup work that results -- feel free to ask me to clean up after myself in articles.

Please click here to leave me a new message.

Coordinates

{{helpme}} How do i get the coordinates of a wikipedia page article? Thank you SeeEarth 15:20, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Your question may mean either "How do I read coordinates?" or "How do I write them?"

Most articles on major cities have the coordinates listed in small print in the upper right-hand corner and/or in the text of the article. See, for example, London, Ontario.

There are several ways to write coordinates into a Wikipedia article. The source code at London, Ontario is {{Coor title d|42.98714|N|81.246268|W}}. For more information, see Template:Coor title d and other templates in its category. Shalom ^Hello 20:02, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
