 * "Our cause seems hopeless." - A Vortigaunt about this wiki

Any questions? Feel free to leave a message on my talk page. I'll answer on the same talk page.

I also contribute to Wookieepedia.

My current thoughts on this wiki
This wiki is close to be hopeless. I don't know if it will ever be as good as the subject deserves one day. Few admins still come here, and it's a weak wall against poor, rough, weak editing and disregard for the wiki rules. Very few are the new edits that don't have to be re-edited, and even if an article is fixed at last, it can be ruined very quickly is a few days by poor contributions. So this is an everyday struggle that I won't be able to bear forever. I don't know everything, I can't do everything. I think I will leave soon, the task is too big and there's not enough help. Although some users here do their best to keep a good level, I don't think that will be enough.

Registering
Please register before adding anything. It's simple, fast and free, and it is so much easier to communicate with you that way.

Fanon and trivia
Be careful when you add fanon, pointless and irrelevant trivia and pictures you don't have a purpose for. They will be deleted.

Things to do
If you want to help me in this task, feel free to pick an item in the list below. Don't pick one you don't quite understand, of course, and let me know when you have done something.


 * Fix the new article message
 * clarify the "wasteland" thing and add a screenshot for the wasteland seen at the start of HL2 and create a behind the scenes section in The Coast for the Wasteland/Scrapland + images
 * cleanup the external links for the games
 * menta ray names issue + cut ones
 * Add a pic to Race X
 * Page for ApertureScience.com + guide
 * Better pics for the TF2 classes
 * "You" can only be used in the walkthroughs, all the other instances must be replace by "the player" or Gordon Freeman (or just Gordon)
 * Rewrite the City 17 origins section (and re-read the whole article). "Some fans think" is not very serious
 * Make different game categories for the enemies (or not)
 * Merge the Barney / Barney Calhoun articles
 * Find room for the cat theory evoked by Barney
 * Obsidian Conflict sounds a bit like an advertisement
 * Be sure that all mods walkthroughs have been removed - concentrate on the canon material
 * Create a section template for ambig canon material for Barney, among others
 * Include somewhere the Breen poster seen in the HL2 first chapter
 * Find Image:Sandvich.jpg in the game files
 * Create a page for Quiver
 * Make sure every synth has a synth link in its infobox
 * Add proper game names categories in all articles
 * Define a capitalization standard for the weapons and the enemies (in page subtitles: remove all caps)
 * Standardize the chapter pages introductions and create missing ones (number in letters, title in bold, etc.)
 * Check all the locations for conjecture and try to find more real names for the Combine Technology articles
 * Properly source all articles (Gordon Freeman is the only one I think is ok so far)
 * Re-read all the articles and make heavy rewrites..
 * Create a section for the Jalopy + a picture in the Muscle Car article
 * Conscripts
 * Mingebag/MingeBag
 * Nova Prospekt/Gulag/Prison/Depot - on the page Nova Prospekt
 * Samuel
 * There are too many irrelevant "See also" through the wiki
 * Perhaps create pages for several Xen places, such as Gonarch's Lair or the Vortigaunt Factory (conj.)

Created pages


I also created a lot of templates and categories, but it would be pointless to mention them all here.
