Perl scripts

Wikipedia on the handheld

April 2003 I wrote a lengthy Perl script that converts the Wikipedia to TomeRaider format.
TomeRaider files can be browsed on Palm, Pocket PC and EPOC handhelds and on Windows.

Statistics for all Wikipedias

July 2003 I started to work on Perl script to produce extensive statistics for all Wikipedias. These statistics are now available at the Wikipedia server in several languages. They will be refreshed weekly, after a new SQL dump (= backup) of the databases has been produced, which serves as input.

Special Pages

August 2003 I wrote a script to replace several defunct 'special pages' with reports extracted from the SQL dump files:

• Shortest articles
• Longest articles
• Orphaned articles
• Most referenced articles
• Most wanted articles

Articles created/modified

N = new or almost new article 
+ = substantial contribution
- = modest contribution

Biology

• N junk DNA
• + Gene knockout

Airline industry

• N Airline alliance
• N Code sharing

Games

• N Euphrat und Tigris
• N Halma

• - List of famous Dutch people
• + Lijst Pim Fortuyn
• + Politics of the Netherlands
