As I found out, categories are automatically made from tags. But some of the tags are not self-explanatory. Since tags are more light-weight than categories, we will probably reduce them.

Hi there, <br>
My main field of activity is wiki gardening.


You may contact me on my discussion page or via Wiki-Mail.
I'm trying to improve wording, linking and categories, especially to check for orphaned pages (pages with no ingoing links from other wiki pages). Sometimes I'm replacing "[[help:Here-links|here]]" or "click" links by meaningful titles (typically the title of the target page) to make the link easy to repair if the linked page moves (Google helps a lot with titles). I'm trying to mark things that are [[:category:todo|todo]], ask some questions, sometimes answer questions, help with wiki syntax (also templates and modules).
I also regularly keep an eye on the [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]].
Currently I'm quite active.


If you have any question, you may contact me [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}|on my user talk page (alias <span class="collapsible" style="
padding: 0.25em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em; 
background-image: linear-gradient(white, #f3f7ff);
border: solid #cdf;
border-width: 0 1px 1px;">Discussion</span>)]] or privately by using the [https://en.xen.wiki/w/Special:EmailUser/Xenwolf Wiki mail function].


<small>see also [https://de.xen.wiki/w/User:Xenwolf my User page in the German Xenwiki]</small>
As I found out, Wikispaces tags were converted into MediaWiki categories by the transfer process. But some of the tags are not self-explanatory. Since tags are more light-weight than categories, we will probably reduce (or transform) them.

Some special subpage names are reserved and run (if they exist) for customizing the wiki for logged-in users, some of them are related to the actual skin being used. [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering]] gives you access to these pages (containing CSS, JavaScript only effective for the web interface you see).
