Oliver Brown, Wikipedian, singer-songwriter…
Posted on:: August 3rd, 2005
Yesterday I got to catch up a bit with Oliver Brown, Wikipedian and singer, a family friend all of his life and almost all of mine. (I’ve got a few years on him.)
Oliver Brown
Among Oliver’s many many contributions to Wikipedia: He started the “Father/Mother of…” page. About becoming an “admin” he writes:
I became an admin 16:15 May 12, 2003 (UTC); at that point I had 3,944 edits and 75 days experience. Before being an admin, I averaged 55 edits a day. After becoming an admin, that average dropped to 28 a day. Fabiform says the decline is because of IRC. I became a Bureaucrat February 28, 2004.
His songs have become family favorites.
Great to see him… [Technorati tags: OliverBrown wikipedia ukelele]
