And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand here before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Leonard Cohen

Hullo, and welcome to my user page. I am one of the bureaucrats of this wiki, so feel free to drop me a line on my talk page if you'd like to discuss policy, request maintenance or have any questions about the wiki.

Pages of noteEdit

• How to pronounce my name: a lot of people have asked me this. Since it's rather difficult to describe, I have instead produced a handy audio file.
• My sandbox: Home to my wiki experiments, the DNC fight list and Leeroy's song.
• Silly portraits of the users of the FF Wiki and #Wikia-FF.
• User:Yuanchosaan/Sketchbook: Currently the residence of information for God of the Stars, a collab story.
• Trope listing: Tropes for the FF wiki and its users!
• Echoes of Strife: The second serious Final Fantasy wiki fanfic.
• User:Yuanchosaan/RPQ: My quote template, as can be seen above. A highly disorganised clump of poetry quotes which I love.
• User:Yuanchosaan/Art: An analysis of the art of Final Fantasy, currently under construction.
• I have a deviantART and a Twitter, both updated (semi)regularly.

StampsEdit

I made these things. They are silly.

A few things I've doneEdit

• Suggested walkthrough space on the wiki.
• Got rid of all the links to disambiguations (with help from ILHI, Yumino, Diablocon and Adam mcduck).
• On the 9th of August, 2008, I made my 10 000th edit. It was the creation of the Sasuke's Blade page. On the 7th of September, 2008, I made my 10 000th mainspace edit. It was reformatting the Relic (Final Fantasy VI) page
• Made a moderator on the 17th of June, 2008, an admin on the 16th of January, 2010 and a bureaucrat on the 30th of July, 2013. I am currently a Founder on the wiki's IRC channel, #Wikia-FF.
• Creator of a number of guides and sticky threads, in particular Forum:Navigation Popups Q & A and Forum:Copyright Q & A.
• Possibly the first person to have a "template" style user page (ILHI may have beat me to it). My old userpage may be seen here.
• Marty Stu Leeroy was originally my idea. Yes, I created that (fabulous) monster.

10 things you should remember... Edit

1. Assume good faith! We're all just trying to help the wiki
2. There's always work to be done on the wiki.
3. There is no deadline, and no limitation to space.
4. The Staff are just users with mops and brooms. Their opinions are not worth more or less than yours.
5. Keep it civil, even if you disagree with someone.
6. We look for a consensus, not votes.
7. Nothing on the wiki is forever. Consensus changes all the time.
8. Be bold! Go ahead and edit.
9. Don't bite the newbies. Everyone was new once.
10. Take a break.
