I started reading Brandon's works in 2015 and have been following the community on and off since then. Finally decided to start contributing here in 2019. I'm new to editing wikis, so I'm mostly going to be using this for figuring that out.

I started reading [[Brandon Sanderson|Brandon]]'s works in 2015 and have been following the community on and off since then. I finally decided to start contributing here in 2019. I've got some miscellaneous resources and notes on this page, as well as a vague list of [[#Projects]] and my [[#Subpages]].
   
  +
I'm also a [[Coppermind:Keepers|Keeper]] and member of the [[Coppermind:Synod|Synod]], which basically means I'm someone you can come to if you want some help getting started on the Coppermind, have any questions about wiki policies or guidelines, want some advice on how to handle something, think there's something that needs to be done that you don't have permissions for, run into an issue with another editor, or otherwise need help with something Coppermind-related. Feel free to contact me via any of the options listed on [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}|my talk page]].

I often take inspiration for edits from things I see in [[Special:RecentChanges]] so if I edit something you just did, it's probably not because you did anything wrong, I just saw something else on the page that I thought could be improved.

[[Special:Diff/114568|My thousandth edit]] came in the middle of a spree to fix the book parameter in all the [[Skyward (series)|Skyward]] infoboxes and [[Special:Diff/169139|my ten thousandth edit]] was adding a disambiguation note to between Tindwyl and Tindwyl Ladrian (I note that only so that I can remember in five years exactly which page it was).

This section separates out exemplary articles by what series they are from, to assist in providing variety for the featured article. As a check for each series has to be added manually, some exemplary articles may be missed. For reference, there are currently {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Exemplary articles|pages}} exemplary articles.

During the [[Siege of Kholinar]], [[Shallan]] sees [[Hoid]] in a market telling a folk tale about the queen and the moon [[Mishim]]. In the story, Mishim first tries to convince the queen to swap places with her by enticing her with descriptions of the marvelous sights of the heavens. Tsa turns down all of Mishim's advances, however, by telling her that such sights are not for mortals. Finally, however, Mishim convinces Tsa to trade places with her by telling her that one of her towers has a flaw that is only visible from above. Mishim warns that this swap will be dangerous, as they must conceal it from the moon [[Nomon]], and Tsa promises to pretend to be Mishim and to look only on her towers.{{book ref|sa3|67}}

Mishim spends her night among mortals partying and is so caught up in the festivities that she did not remember that she had to return to the sky until the sun had already risen and Tsa, as the moon, had already set. As a result, she has to spend the next day on Roshar, during which she fears her siblings will discover what she had done and comes to understand the emotion of anxiety. Yet when [[Salas]] and then Nomon rise, neither call out to chastise her. At last, when Tsa rises, she calls out to the queen to ask what had happened. Tsa replies that the other moons realized what had happened as soon as the two had swapped places and that they had welcomed her with feasts and songs, which makes Mishim begin to worry as her siblings had never interacted with her like that before. Tsa then remarks that she might stay as the moon rather than return to Roshar, which prompts Mishim to understand the emotion of loss. Mishim attempts to argue that Tsa must return, because, by looking at the constellations and listening to the [[starspren]], she has broken her promise to look only on the towers. Tsa replies that her promise is not broken, for Nomon himself gave her permission to do so, but eventually relents and agrees to return to Roshar.{{book ref|sa3|67}}

This section aims to identify complete articles that may be candidates for promotion to exemplary based on article length. Current exemplary articles are included in the list of complete articles and a separate list of current exemplary articles by page length is provided for ease of referencing where the complete articles stand relative to current exemplary ones.

As Mishim sets that night, however, she is confused, as she hears a song she has never heard before, which she describes as "a song of laughter [and] of beauty."{{book ref|sa3|67}} A few months later, when she is passing over Tsa's city, Mishim understands this song as she sees Tsa holding a baby boy with faintly blue skin and realizes that she was tricked. Tsa wanted to spend a night in the heavens so that she could have a child by Nomon, whom the people of [[Natan]] held in high regard. Thus, the story explains why the people of Natan have blue skin and also, according to Hoid, why the "still crafty" Mishim has never tried to leave her place in the heavens since then.{{book ref|sa3|67}}

Copper (Feruchemy).svg A Keeper on the Coppermind.
Copper (Book 3).svg A member of the Synod on the Coppermind.
5.03 User has been around for 5.03 years.
10K User has contributed 10000 edits to the Coppermind.
250K User has contributed 250000 bytes to the Coppermind.

I started reading Brandon's works in 2015 and have been following the community on and off since then. I finally decided to start contributing here in 2019. I've got some miscellaneous resources and notes on this page, as well as a vague list of #Projects and my #Subpages.

I'm also a Keeper and member of the Synod, which basically means I'm someone you can come to if you want some help getting started on the Coppermind, have any questions about wiki policies or guidelines, want some advice on how to handle something, think there's something that needs to be done that you don't have permissions for, run into an issue with another editor, or otherwise need help with something Coppermind-related. Feel free to contact me via any of the options listed on my talk page.

I often take inspiration for edits from things I see in Special:RecentChanges so if I edit something you just did, it's probably not because you did anything wrong, I just saw something else on the page that I thought could be improved.

My thousandth edit came in the middle of a spree to fix the book parameter in all the Skyward infoboxes and my ten thousandth edit was adding a disambiguation note to between Tindwyl and Tindwyl Ladrian (I note that only so that I can remember in five years exactly which page it was).
