[[Commercial games#Original PC series|Doom]] is one of the 12 most important video games ever.&nbsp;It deserves a complete reference work for posterity, at least until the inevitable ''lyrics.ch'' massacre.
 
 
 
I seem to get random questions from new users at times.&nbsp; I don't mind replying, but you should know:
 
* Real-world issues often keep me away for weeks/months.
 
* Truthfully, I know only a small amount about each subtopic &mdash; don't be fooled by the edit count, which comes from imposing [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:WikiBear|superficial consistency]] on a few hundred related pages at a time.&nbsp; If you have detailed questions about the [[Doom engine]] or the [[:Category:Community|fan community]], you'll do better clicking [http://www.doomworld.com/vb/newthread.php?action=newthread&forumid=1 here].
 
* If you need [[Help:User groups|administrator]] assistance with an issue you don't want to discuss publicly, I can't help you; try emailing one (most have a personal web site or an active [[Doomworld]] account).
 
 
 
I can occasionally be found in {{c|#doomwiki}} on [[IRC#OFTC channels|OFTC]].&nbsp; The channel was created over my objections &mdash; our decision-making is supposed to be inclusive and transparent &mdash; but now that it's here, the more users participate the better.

=== Subpages of this page ===
 
 
 
* '''[[User:Ryan W/Demo Manifesto|Demo Manifesto]]:''' broad concepts for my walkthrough [[Demo|LMPs]] (mostly for my own reference)
 
* '''[[User:Ryan W/Maintenance|Maintenance]]:''' a longer version of the [[Entryway|"please help" list]] on Entryway (warning, horribly boring)
 
* '''[[User:Ryan W/Categorization|Categorization]]:''' some rules of thumb for keeping it complete and self-consistent (uh Bert, that's even more boring)
 
* '''[[User:Ryan W/Sandbox|Sandbox]]:''' for making [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Sandbox|test edits]]
 
 
 
=== Name origin ===
 
 
 
My first contribution to an online gaming resource was to the excellent Ice Climber walkthrough by [http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/recognition/29934.html Popo2002], who quite sensibly suggested that I be credited under a handle.&nbsp; I named myself after the chap who graciously lent me Ice Climber (and many of its godawful NES contemporaries) at a time when I was completely broke and couldn't even afford weekend rentals.&nbsp; In addition to uncounted hours of AD&D and tokusatsu LARPing, he was also my introduction to combinatorics, Dire Straits, and the Ninja Turtles (not bad, eh?).&nbsp; He eventually went off to the [[wikipedia:Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art|Joe Kubert School]] and I don't know what happened to him, but I hope he is still alive and creating things.
 
 
 
Anyway, before all that, we were in [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=First_grade&oldid=78462956 first grade] together and he was never called "Ryan", but always "Ryan W", because there was another Ryan in the class as well.
