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.

Camerapedia nostalgia

It's time to look back.

The website was founded by User:Lbstone on Oct. 27, 2004; here is the first of his edits.

I joined on Sep. 18, 2005; here is my first edit and 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 1,355,293).

Since then, I've made 43,174 edits out of a grand total of 96,728. I wonder how many words or bytes that makes.

Here were a few high points of my time here:

The rest of the page is temporarily blanked.
