UserWiki:Umbire the Phantom

There is no perfect shade of gray - that many are wrong does not mean one cannot be right. Apathy serves only the status quo.

If push comes to shove, I WILL shove back.

I am not a 'social' troper in the usual sense - this is very much a hobby for me, and though I enjoy it and will often converse about it, I don't talk much about myself on here and am prone to "disappearances" now and then. If you are genuinely interested in getting to know me and how I'm doing, message me and we'll see from there.

Keep in mind that while I am happy to discuss my views and opinions when relevant, I dislike "debate" - a mass majority of them are initiated with the intent to convert and "win", rather than listen and understand.

And now, some treats for the curious:

Editing habits

 * Janitorial work: General cleanup takes me across various pages both relevant and irrelevant to my interests.
 * Followup editing: I follow behind recent changes and see if anything was missed. It's always good to double-check, and this corrective editing isn't indicative of anything...
 * Sanitation: Unless the edits are indicative of an unambiguous "trouble user", in which case I give priority to eventually correcting those first. The same applies if the user themselves isn't trolling or breaking rules but their edits are otherwise dubious.
 * Potholing: Work doesn't exist here? I make-a da link.
 * Separate Works Require Separate Pages (SWRSP): Exactly What It Says on the Tin. If you see this in an edit summary, that's what I'm doing. I may also write it occasionally as "Distinct Works Require Distinct Pages" (DWRDP).

Current projects:


 * Begin the Recap section of Dragon Ball Z Abridged.
 * Clean up after problem users
 * Finish cleaning up Xander's mess.
 * Scrub the wiki of this user's Islamophobic rants.
 * Less detrimental, but still: See about these edits as well and de-hornify them where needed.
 * Fill out the YGO TCG Shout-Out page.
 * Finish the navbox for SimpleFlips.
 * Finish The Halloween Hack's page.
 * Complete the Suspension pages.
 * Deal with the Evony info you meant to gather.
 * Finish these pages while waiting for Trope Workshop slots to open up.

Regular tasks

 * Check the TODO list now and then.
 * Check Recent Changes, especially for unpatrolled edits.
 * Check the Trope Workshop for recent additions and pages to work on, prioritizing my started pages.
