m (Taking fixing the Skyward infobox book parameters off my projects list)
m (+Keeper, updating projects)
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'm newuse this page to editingkeep wikis,some soresources. I'm mostlyalso goinghave toa befew using[[#Subpages|Subpages]] thisfor pageworking foron figuringbig changes to articles that outaren't andready draftingto articlesgo in the actual article yet.
 
I'm also a [[Coppermind:Keepers|Keeper]], which I guess means I'm qualified to answer questions about how to do wiki things or how to handle weird situations. Feel free to contact me on [[User talk:Stargazer|my talk page]] or on [https://discord.gg/KEv3fhN our Coppermind editors Discord server] (I'm Stargazer#6905 there if you want to ping me or would feel better direct messaging me).
[[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.
 
[[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 (I note that only so that I can remember in five years exactly which page it was).
 
== List of Commonly Linked to Disambigs ==
<span title="If you want to see how to do mouseover text, edit this page and look at the input here">Mouseover text</span>
When using side quotes, make sure to write "|'''side='''left/right|'''size='''XXXpx" (instead of "|left/right|XXXpx") to avoid the "Sidequote with lazy parameters" category
Put a : at the front of an internal link if it's to anotherthe Category namespace (otherwise you just add the article to the category)
 
== Ideas ==
*Edit [[Template:{{t|wob ref]]}} to auto-tag all articles with unimported WoBs
 
== Projects (in rough priority order) ==
*[[Cosmere]]: Was updating some references here and saw it could use some help. See [[User:Stargazer/Cosmere]] for work in progress and Small Workspace below for outline. Currently slogging through figuring out how to explain Realmatics, Adonalsium, etc. when I have the time and mindset for it.
*''Updating the [[:Category:Starsight|new articles from ''Starsight'']] (most pages are created, just need to be filled in):''
**Pages to be created: [[Skyward Universe]](on hold for discussion, may do after the cosmere page)
**Make sure species names and variations of "cytonic" are lowercase. Biggest offenders are probably [[:Category:Defending Elysium]]
**{{t|character}} needs to be updated for new species (and worlds?), but that's not something I'm going to try doing
**Check |world= parameter; I think we said this should be homeworld, not wherever the species happens to appear
*[[Tanavast]] and [[Honor]]: Working out the difference between Vessel and Shard pages and adding detail. Haven't actually gotten to work on this, but work in progress will be at [[User:Stargazer/Tanavast]] and [[User:Stargazer/Honor]]. See [[Rayse]] and [[Odium]] for general split between Vessel and Shard.
**[[Cognitive Shadow]]
*''Formatting things''
**Fix [[:Category:Sidequote with lazy parameters]] ([[User:King of Herdaz]] took care of these, but check them occasionally for new ones)
**Change tables to class=wikitable to make the prettier
*''General quality''
**Articles: See [[:Category:Articles in need of attention]], [[:Category:Articles in need of citations]], [[:Category:Articles in need of clarification]], [[:Category:Articles missing information]], [[:Category:Articles with disputed content]], and [[:Category:Disambiguation pages]] (also at [[:Special:DisambiguationPageLinks]]) (Disambigs pretty much done, but will need re-checking every so often)
**Check articles linking to [[Template:{{t|17s ref]]}}, [[Template:{{t|Qa ref]]}} (should only be User pages left), [[Template:{{t|Twg ref]]}}, and [[Template:{{t|Sots ref]]}}
**Other: See list at [[:Special:SpecialPages]]; especially [[:Special:BrokenRedirects]] and [[:Special:DoubleRedirects]]
