Happy anniversary to me. [1]
I was extremely active on the Doom Wiki for four years. Subsequently it got larger, more visible, and more aware of gamers' preference for misinformed banter. Thus the 2006 approach of slapping together rough cut material is a dinosaur; even boring cleanup can obstruct a larger project in progress. I think I'm slowly learning how to contribute positively in this new landscape.
To-do list
- Every notable level ever
- Subcategorization fixes, such as
-
Divide up Category:People (per this proposal) - Split most of Category:Historical into subcategories (after a suggestion on #doomwiki that it was becoming incoherent in its diversity, and then blissful silence when Quasar and I tried one)
-
Levels by WAD (if consensus seems to go that way)
-
- Backlog of ridiculously tedious formatting inconsistencies, if feasible without a bot
- Uncapitalize "monster species" names
Places I want to help, but needing further research
-
User:Quasar/SEOon second thought, non-experts apparently just get in the way here [2] - Establish basic pending changes guidelines
- "Portal" articles for each core topic (gameplay, community, technical...), eventually effecting a simplified redesign of Entryway
- Things and terrain features in the classic series: clear and complete data sections, segregate vanilla from post-millennial and facts from schoolroom doodles
- Improved combat statistics, and related quantities like ROFs and average walking speeds
Areas I hope to see documented by experts, before they all have kids and deny ever playing Doom
- Deathmatch tutorials; strategy sections in all map articles
- Exhaustive index of modding topics, whether covered here or on a port-specific site
- History of community gathering places, old web sites, FTP archives
- Speedrunning: tricks, competition history, analysis of player styles, the legacies of "Doomgods" from various eras
Terms from Doctor Who that I overuse and probably should be reverted
Season 12: absorb, ampoule, carthorse, constitution, countersigned, fail-safe, ham-fisted, infirmary, subsidence
Season 18: annihilation/annihilate, anomaly/anomalous, anticlockwise, automatically, calcified, cheeseboard, consul, dodecahedron, enquiries, hysteresis/hysteretic, nexus, out of phase, wild catastrophe
User:Doggerel is my alternate account for testing MediaWiki stuff.
- This page incorporates text from the document User:Phaedriel (revision 476606966) on Wikipedia.

For doing a lot of work on various articles that I would personally find very repetative to do personally. (All I see in recent changes at times are your edits) Thank you. TheDarkArchon 02:35, 28 January 2007 (UTC) |
