September 2025 Update: Yeah, uh. I was gone for month or two. Won't go into too much detail, but I took a hiatus to deal with some things going on in life. (Nothing serious, don't worry!) Back now, though (at least for a bit).

Hi. You can call me "Vindicator" or just "V". Normally, on pages like this, I ask "how the heck did you find me", but you probably found me on the leaderboard thing because I edit this wiki a fair bit.

UPDATE, June 27th, 2025 - This was originally for all of my article ideas, but that purpose has been deprecated in favor of placing researched ideas onto the [[Incident backlog]] (more people will see them there anyway). This section is now for incidents/ideas I intend to research so I can place them on the backlog, or existing pages I wanna address that don't belong in the backlog.

* Sony article - Bumpgate mention; needs fixed for tone and the sources need upgraded.

* Microsoft article - Bumpgate mention; probably same problem as with Sony, but at least needs checked for issues.

*YouTube - ~~Check if there are any Louis vids that need adapted; otherwise, the~~ page needs some minor tone and grammar edits.

*YouTube - The page needs some minor tone and grammar edits.

*Discord alternatives - Might be wise to have some pages about alternatives to Discord, considering winter is coming for it and users might be looking for places to jump ship to if it gets too bad. Not much research done yet, but some alternatives from a quick search have some questionable policies.

**Guilded - Forced arbitration in TOS.

===Why do you put so many links and comments on article discussions sometimes?===

I treat the article discussion pages a little bit like notes that anybody can read. Though, I will admit- I can be a little prone to going overboard at times. Come to think of it, when I was in school, I was the one in the group project who put a bunch of links in the Google Doc for everyone to potentially reference, so I guess it's a bit of a habit. I don't think it's necessarily bad to do it, but I do worry it crowds out the discussion page a bit too much. Again, I'm pretty new to all this, so I'm still finding a happy medium for it.
