Users/WilliamLewis

William as a contemplative pirate.

William Lewis does not sleep. Ever. Allegedly. Especially not for 11 hours straight after an all-nighter.

William is an undergrad EE major who has not bought into that "finish in four" nonsense UC Davis tries to shove down students' throats. Of course, now that his Cal Grant is used up, he may be a bit more urgent in finishing his studies. He likes bicycles because they're fun to work on and you can feel like you're flying when you're riding one. He's a bit of an information junkie who can't stand it when people screw up articles on the wiki to promote their own interests (e.g. all of Steve Ostrowski's edits, Paul Petrovich). He at one time lived with wikignome DavidPoole and ubertrollpolitical provocateur BrentLaabs. He now lives with network guru NickSchmalenberger. When he's not studying or wrenching, he might actually be making money by doing stuff at Mediaworks in their video group.

He is an officer-at-large in Psi Phi, the fraternity of the future. He also "started" the Society of Wiki Historical Researchers.

You might want to watch your step around him, or else he might just steal your accordion.

... and a radio amateur.

WilliamLewis wishes he were a sockpuppet so he had a better reason to use this totally awesome icon. He may possibly be a meat puppet for BrentLaabs or DavidPoole, but these are mostly rumors.

This may or may not be an ambiguation page. Someone, somewhere, hoped you might feel more or less ambiguated.

2009-10-15 19:48:18   So far from what I know is that there are many forms of Military IDs and therefore there is no booklet for pub or bar to check Military IDs like State IDs, but sometimes next year there is supposed to be a change about that, even State IDs are going to change. —nu1985

2009-10-26 20:32:31   RE SpammerCam: Brilliant discovery! —SteveDavison

2009-10-27 14:36:34   I re-edited the post on JA's page. I don't disagree with your reasoning, I just feel there's a bit more dickishness then there needs to be. Just let the guy delete random troll comments on his page and move on. I'm sure if people stopped that crap, so would he. After months of this, the fact that we don't know whether that's the case is part of my point. —EdWins

2009-10-27 14:41:38   To reiterate, look at the few links I put on Jason's page. The guy tried to compromise multiple times, ultimately merely trying to reference something someone else did say on the wiki. He wasn't exactly arguing that I saw, but CP kept removing it until he relented and let it go. He then followed this up with pretty much left the 'first threat' over this issue. IMO, there's nothing wrong with an attributed comment referencing something said on another page, particularly when the subject is something that's been plastered on multiple pages. Perhaps he should have linked to it rather than paraphrased, but if it was anyone else - we almost assuredly wouldn't be having this convo. And again, that's part of my point. —EdWins

2009-10-27 16:14:58   Maybe. —EdWins

2009-10-28 12:57:11   I suspect you meant to put your auto-numbering list help on someone else's page. I don't think I ever removed that. RealComputers has removed the autonumbering from his business page a few times. Did you mean to mention it to him? —WesHardaker

2009-10-30 11:17:44   i already stopped but read my comment on the computer reapir talk page. —RealComputers

2009-10-30 11:21:09   what is your problem. Your messing up the grammar. If yu want to add the links just add the links but dont mess up the grammar. —RealComputers

2009-10-30 11:21:42   It's okay. I got it. —JabberWokky

2009-10-30 20:24:57   William, I want to thank you for how well you've watched out for spammers on Wiki Spot and handled them. Maybe not many people on Davis Wiki know that you've done that and done an excellent job of it. I do wish that sometimes you'd slow down with the revert button here on Davis Wiki. The gnomes and wiki regulars have a great advantage in that we can always modify a page tomorrow, or the day after. It isn't a loss or a problem to let a page be in a bad state (well, maybe not the Front Page) for 5 or 10 minutes. Those of us with thousands of edits will always have the opportunity of the last edit in the long run, and sometimes we can gain ground by letting the page go for 5 or 10 minutes. —JasonAller

2009-10-30 21:47:39   English sucks. —CovertProfessor

2009-11-01 13:54:57   Ok, I'm jumping just as hard and fast as I was asking you not to. Can you forgive me? —JasonAller

2009-11-02 11:44:22   Yes. That falls under "Creative Commons license", however, and I didn't want a minor explanation and query to turn into a pedantic and complete explanation of how copyright works. :) Overly simplistic explanation intended, along with a link to the more complete explanation. —JabberWokky

2009-11-03 14:09:31   so i created a page as Jeffrey Kay, Massage therapist. And I do not work for the Holistic Health Center, i am renting some of their space. How do i make sure i come up when people search for massage? —JeffreyKay
