== Camerapedia nostalgia ==
 +
It's time to look back.
 +
 
 +
The website was founded by [[User:Lbstone]] on Oct. 27, 2004; here is the [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page&oldid=2 first] of [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=500&target=Lbstone his edits].
 +
 
 +
I joined on Sep. 18, 2005; here is [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Contax_(Yashica/Kyocera)&diff=prev&oldid=2333 my first edit] and [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=2527 my first contri to the Main Page].
 +
 
 +
Only a few people will remember the condition of the website at the time; there were less than 100,000 hits to the Main Page (now [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Special:PopularPages 1,355,293]).
 +
 
 +
Since then, I've made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=5000&target=Rebollo+fr 43,174 edits] out of a grand total of [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Special:Statistics 96,728]. I wonder how many words or [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Special:LongPages bytes] that makes.
 +
 
 +
Here were a few high points of my time here:
 +
* Started [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Category:Cameras&action=history the Category system] on Dec. 16, 2005;
 +
* Blocked my first vandal on Mar. 9, 2006 and blocked [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:BlockList&limit=500 many more since];
 +
* Joined by [[User:U._kulick|U. kulick]] on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Minolta_SR-1&oldid=12824 Apr. 15, 2006], who has since made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=5000&target=U.+kulick 10,000 to 15,000 edits] and managed the [http://www.flickr.com/groups/camerapedia/ Flickr pool];
 +

 +
* Participated in the only documented [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions&oldid=21101#Sources_and_bibliography Camerapedia street demonstration], that successfully [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions&diff=prev&oldid=21105 moved the authorities] into upgrading to Mediawiki 1.6;
 +
* Encouraged by this success, asked for [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions/Archive02#Parser_extension another technical favour] that had to wait for four years;
 +
* Made the [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page/Draft&action=history draft for the new main page] in August 2006, installed on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=26200 Sep. 10, 2006];
 +
* [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Template:Flickr_image&action=history Flickr image] template created by [[User:U._kulick|U. kulick]] in Aug. 2006, to make image insertion easier;
 +
* Took the decision to allow non-free images in [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org%3ACopyrights&action=historysubmit&diff=26597&oldid=23140 Sep. 2006], to make it easier to ask people to loan pictures for non-commercial use;
 +
* Participated in [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions/Archive02#French_language_section Oct. 2006] in a [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Category:Page_en_français failed attempt] to make the site multilingual;
 +
* Created [[:Category:Image_rights|image right tags]] in Nov. 2007 and [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org:Adding_images&diff=prev&oldid=48715 encouraged] their use ever since;
 +
* Joined by [[User:Awcam|Awcam]] on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Braun&diff=prev&oldid=53383 Feb. 28, 2008] for the first of [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=1000&target=Awcam 5,000 to 6,000 contris];
 +
* Amazed in Sep. 2008 by the first [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Gitzo&dir=prev&limit=100&action=history batch of edits] by [[User:GitzoCollector|GitzoCollector]], who has made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=1000&target=GitzoCollector 2,000 to 3,000 others] but has just [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=User:GitzoCollector&curid=12878&diff=96377&oldid=96195&rcid=92805 blanked his user page];
 +
* Tolerated to work under Mediawiki 1.6 when Wikipedia was at 1.16;
 +
* [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=MediaWiki:Common.js&diff=prev&oldid=95222 Added] [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&diff=prev&oldid=95221 new] [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Sandbox&diff=next&oldid=95228 collapsible box functionalities] in Dec. 2010, as soon as the site went out of prehistory;
 +
* Contributed [http://www.flickr.com/groups/camerapedia/pool/99204584@N00/ 5,359 elements] out of the [http://www.flickr.com/groups/camerapedia/pool/ 37,358] of the Flickr pool;
 +
* Bought kilograms of paper from Japan to share with the community;
 +
* Never cultivated any hope to make money out of this;
 +
* Always believed other participants had generous motivations;
 +
* Now I'm asking [[Camera-wiki.org:Community Discussions/Future of Camerapedia|questions about the future]].
 +
