Page History

This page is intentionally baren looking. My old page got to be quite a mess, to the point where readers didn't learn much about me. Hopefully the new page fixes that; it is certainly more useful TO ME.
When updating this page, I did all the work on this page and then used the {{SUBST:pagename_here}} tag to put all the code on this page. {{SUBST:}} is a very useful wiki feature, as is the use of normal braces to include a non-template page as a template. Both are quite under-documented; ask me about them if you think they might help you. It is of particular use when you are having trouble "nesting" one template inside another.

Just for Fun
