TSMagus is really a fellow by the name of Calvin who pokes his nose in the Coppermind every once in a while. If he makes an edit, it's most likely a minor one because he didn't like the way you worded something. As for doing something actually useful, he provides citations from time to time, but really that's a young man's game and he's seen better days.
If you want to talk about how unfair it is that Aronack doesn't have a page, send him a DM.
