Hi! My name is Chlod (/klɒd/ ; Tagalog: [klɔd] ). I make scripts and tools for editors and users of the Wikimedia community.

I became active on Wikipedia starting October 2019. My interests lie in anti-vandalism, article writing, and script building. I've made a few userscripts, and those can be found on User:Chlod/Scripts, and I've made a few tools that interact with Wikipedia, or are made for Wikipedia, and they can be found at User:Chlod/Tools. I'm also currently RedWarn and Ultraviolet's project lead. If you're into what else I make, feel free to have a glance at my GitHub. I am a part of the WMF's organization communications translators group, editing under User:Chlod (OCTG) for edits made (in this case, translations) with compensation.

If you'd like to have a chat, you can reach out to me on the Wikimedia Discord server as chlod, or on my talk page. I use IRC as chlod (with host mask chlod@wikimedia/chlod) on Libera and, though I'm not as active on there, I do receive all direct messages and pings. For matters that may be personal or private, you can talk to me through Discord or you can send me an email through Special:EmailUser. I'm always open to improvement on my editing skills or behavior.

Scripts

edit

Some userscripts may also rely on libraries to easily implement functionality shared across multiple userscripts. I maintain the following libraries:

Tools

edit
Tool Status Description Code Operation
Chlod's Wikipedia Tools     Active Used to host all tools on this table. See infobox Persistent
PAGASA Parser     Active Parses information from PAGASA's Tropical Cyclone Bulletin (TCB) page and turns it into various formats. See infobox Persistent
JTWC Archiver     Active Parses information from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center's RSS feed and archives whichever version is available. See infobox Persistent (products)
Every 10 minutes (archiving)
Stroke Order Resolver     Active Takes a Kanji, Hiragana, or Katakana character, and returns the stroke order for that character. See infobox Persistent
Article Randomizer     Active Gets a random good article or featured article and displays it to the user. See infobox Persistent

Declarations

edit

I have an alternate account used for testing: User:Chlod (test), and I control User:RedWarn and User:10nm for automated userscript updates. I also have a bot account used for automated edits: User:Zoomiebot. I work with the Wikimedia Foundation in translation; edits made with compensation are made under User:Chlod (OCTG). Other than those accounts, I operate no other accounts on Wikipedia (aside from my Wikitech account, which is separate from SUL) and I never edit on an IP address intentionally.

What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar
This is for the things we discussed off-wiki. I admitted that I am really careless for the past two months, which can be explained by stress I have when I'm in college as well as my duties with elevated privileges I have. I own up to all of these mistakes and will strive to further improvement. MarioJump83! 05:05, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

For Deputy, ANTE, IA, CTE, etc. Your scripts are the very first bits of automation in a very manual area of work, and countless hours have been saved. Hopefully the bugs don't reign forever. Sennecaster (Chat) 18:44, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
The da Vinci Barnstar
