I'm me... or am I?
I'm a student at
CornellCollege (not to be confused with
CornellUniversity), one of two colleges in the
UnitedStatesOfAmerica to use the block plan. For info, go to
http://www.cornellcollege.edu. Because this plan leaves me no free time, I'm
GoodAtEverything and
GreatAtNothing. I'm a Biology major and a
ComputerScience minor, and I'm interested in
BioInformatics as a possible career path. In the spare time I just told you was nonexistiant, I'm
JustaProgrammer, a fan of
TheMatrix, a student of
KungFoo, and, in general, a
GeekInTraining.
I'm about halfway through the new user documents, and I have two questions (this is a relative miracle):
A) When viewing the
RecentEdits and
RecentChanges pages, some changes have names associated with them, while some have IP's. Naturally, my changes are represented by an IP, and I don't want them to be. Any suggestions?
Try UserName.
B) Can someone explain the different
WikiModes?
FaqMode and
DialectMode (the easy ones) are clear to me, but
DocumentMode and
ThreadMode are apparently argued over more than they are defined for newbies.
ThreadMode is essentially UseNet, and is not the preferred mode of interaction on Wiki; it often degenerates into ThreadMess. Many pages start out in ThreadMode and are eventually refactored into DocumentMode, which signals that a page has reached some sort of maturity. I.e., DocumentMode pages are to some extent static.
