About

Unless otherwise stated, any edit to Wikimedia projects by me is an act of a regular member of the Mediawiki community, and not an official action of Vistaprint. My views definitely do not represent those of Vistaprint Inc.

Vistaprint

Currently I am employed by Vistaprint as a senior software engineer. I am working on VistaWiki: the internal-documentation system. You can read more about it here:

• VistaWiki – Example of Enterprise 2.0 Knowledge Sharing
• Another Enterprise 2.0 Knowledge Sharing Success Story - VistaWiki
• Case Study on Enterprise 2.0

EcoliWiki

Formerly (12/1006 - 12/2011) the premier developer for EcoliWiki at Texas A&M University. I was actively involved in the following research/projects: EcoliWiki, GONUTS,the Gene Ontology, GMOD.

Extensions

Extension:TableEdit

A pretty good attempt at a forms-based table-editor.

• Allows users to edit tables dynamically using a GUI-type interface rather than learn wiki-syntax for tables. Made originally for the model-organism wiki about Escherichia coli, EcoliWiki.
• Template-driven tables allow abstraction of table-definitions.
• See also Extension:TableEdit2 for plans on the rewrite

Extension:DataTables

An extension that takes advantage of the ResourceLoader to add Allan Jardine's jQuery extension datatables to MediaWiki.

Extension:GBrowseImage

An extension for the embedding of images from the open-source genome-browser Gbrowse.

These are all just personal notes and are not meant to be a primary source for information. I highly suggest that you do your own research, as my notes are highly incomplete and slightly erroneous. You've been warned.
