Chlod is currently experiencing dysthymia, which may affect his Wikipedia editing in various ways. He may have difficulty with:
altered perception when making editorial judgements, determining consensus, or reading Wikipedia discussions addressed to him;
reduced availability on Wikipedia during times when he experiences issues;
limited capacity to respond to other Wikipedians via talk page or email messages in a timely fashion, to participate in conflict resolution, or to complete his usual workload of Wikipedia tasks.
Hi! My name is Chlod (/klɔːd/). I make scripts and tools for editors and users of the Wikimedia community.
I became active on Wikipedia starting October 2019. My interests lie in anti-vandalism, article writing, and script building. I've made a few userscripts, and those can be found here, and I've made a few tools that interact with Wikipedia, or are made for Wikipedia, and they can be found here. I'm also currently RedWarn and Ultraviolet's project lead. If you're into what else I make, feel free to have a glance at my GitHub. I am a part of the WMF's organization communications translators group, editing under User:Chlod (OCTG) for edits made (in this case, translations) with compensation.
If you'd like to have a chat, you can reach out to me on the Wikimedia Discord server as chlod, or on my talk page. I use IRC as chlod (with host mask chlod@wikimedia/chlod) on Libera and, though I'm not as active on there, I do receive all direct messages and pings. For matters that may be personal or private, you can talk to me through Discord or you can send me an email through Special:EmailUser. I'm always open to improvement on my editing skills or behavior.
This user operates Zoomiebot, an automated bot that performs repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually. Additional tools and tasks may be seen on its userpage.
I have an alternate account used for testing: User:Chlod (test), and I control User:RedWarn and User:10nm for automated userscript updates. I also have a bot account used for automated edits: User:Zoomiebot. I work with the Wikimedia Foundation in translation; edits made with compensation are made under User:Chlod (OCTG). Other than those accounts, I operate no other accounts on Wikipedia (aside from my Wikitech account, which is separate from SUL) and I never edit on an IP address intentionally.
I occasionally help with contributor copyright investigation cases, particularly the WikiProject Tropical cyclones case. I enforce copyright in WikiProject Tropical cyclones and help spot and correct copyright problems on the project. I also maintain Deputy, a copyright cleanup userscript.

The Technical Barnstar
I am amazed on how quickly you included the solution for gracefully supporting the DS alerts template. You have made using WP:RW much more useful than it already was. Thank you. Walrus Ji (talk) 19:03, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar
This is for the things we discussed off-wiki. I admitted that I am really careless for the past two months, which can be explained by stress I have when I'm in college as well as my duties with elevated privileges I have. I own up to all of these mistakes and will strive to further improvement. MarioJump83! 05:05, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

Welcome to the Inquisition :) Thanks for the help with Theobscure, translation vio takes forever and your quick responses off-wiki helped so much. Hope to see you in CCI or CopyPatrol one day! Sennecaster (What now?) 05:00, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

The Purple Barnstar
Chlod, please take this barnstar. Your personal health issues must get in the way of your work and yet, you're often swiftly dealing with unhelpful edit requests at Talk:Absolute pitch.

The Technical Barnstar
For Deputy, ANTE, IA, CTE, etc. Your scripts are the very first bits of automation in a very manual area of work, and countless hours have been saved. Hopefully the bugs don't reign forever. Sennecaster (Chat) 18:44, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
The da Vinci Barnstar
Thank you for making Deputy! It has replaced the diff walls at CCI and made copyvio checking more easier to read. Your help is greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work :) MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:24, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
The Back Scratch Barnstar
I give this award to Chlod because of all the things he has done for me and helped me with. He has so much patience for me and I would have not been able to have done the amount of edits and contributions I have done without him. Jack345110 (talk) 20:28, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

I volunteer to make userscripts requested at the WPJS talk page, and I also make userscripts myself.
