 * I began editing the Star Wars Wiki, as it was then known, on March 10, 2005, the second to do so after co-founder WhiteBoy.
 * I became an administrator of the Star Wars Wiki on March 16, 2005.
 * I was enacted the second bureaucrat of Wookieepedia on February 14, 2006. EDIT (6/1/13): This should have been renamed "Baron Administrator".

For the Darth Who Contest, I submitted Darth Lycinis as a name. It is a combination of the words "lie", "sin", and "lycan" referencing Jacen Solo's experiences with wyrwulves and personality traits of most other Sith Lords.

Biography
{{Scroll box|content= For information regarding the founding of Wookieepedia, see Steven Greenwood (Removed from article due to containing delusions of grandeur.)

Introduction to Star Wars
Steven first remembered Star Wars not from the big screen as many had before him, but rather the family VHS system, to which he repeatedly watched them until they were worn out. Over time he obtained toys here and there. It was not until 1997, when the Special Edition released in theaters that he was able to enjoy the saga the way it was meant to be viewed (the theater, not the Special Edition). From here on out Steven was a faithful fan. During the first movies of the prequel trilogy, Steven collected more items, but was interested more by his failed attempts to win prizes (other than free food) playing the Use the Force game at various restaurants.

By the time Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones released in 2002, Steven had a fondness for detailed information on the saga, so much as to purchase the Incredible Cross Sections and Inside the Worlds of reference books. He also researched CUSWE and attempted to catalog the many planets, systems, and sectors of the GFFA. This fed his interest for knowledge of the immense universe that George Lucas and many other Expanded Universe authors created. However, he felt he never had time to read novels, and was a visual person, stimulated by images.

Although he was a fan of the saga, he did not wait outside movie theaters for openings of the prequels at midnight, nor did he collect everything imaginable, to prove to others that you can still be a fan without being a fanatic. This being said, he developed a fondness for collecting Star Wars action figures.

Steven invited many users himself via Wikipedia, TheForce.Net and the social networking site Myspace of which Steven was also a member, using his large Star Wars group there for recruitment and spreading the word. The group has since been destroyed and rebuilt with the help of a user named 'Neptune' (no relation to StarNeptune), but only to suffer the demise of being hosted on Myspace.

Wookieepedia grows
To help with the many article creations and edits that the wiki received on a daily basis, Steven purchased more reference books, particularly the Essential Guides, and some issues of Star Wars Insider. For the time that he could contribute, Steven added many articles and fixed plenty of errors with spelling, grammar, tense, adding categories, stubs, images, and fixed code problems. In addition, Steven's administrator powers helped him delete many pages, ban many vandals, and protect a few pages in hotly-contested disputes.

With Wikipedia behind him, Steven gave up trying to keep up with the constant changes and errors of Wikipedians and Star Wars material, where it was not strictly enforced as it is here. He would then try to make Wookieepedia more than just another wiki by brainstorming new concepts up in his Thinktank, including a premise for Wookieenews, which would combine with TFN to inform users about various happenings around the Star Wars fanbase, in addition to related stories.

Identifying with Star Wars
As the success of the Wookieepedia grew, Steven felt more comfortable about being a fan, since most fans would fall under the classic nerdy stereotype, which he was. However, he began to embrace it and announce it proudly. He went from a "casual non-hardcore fan" (for example, waiting days to see one of the movies) to a "rather large fan on the verge of obsession". He was Darth Vader for the first time on Halloween, and even considered joining the 501st Legion, however his costume was still below standards for the organization. He found that some people into Star Wars had heard about Wookieepedia through word of mouth or had actually been there.

His fandom became problematic however, as for the first time, Steven fell below a 3.0 for his GPA and lost his college scholarship. He temporarily left the full sanctity of the wiki to work on passing his classes, although he kept an eye on it at all times.

Preparation
Over the summer of 2006, Steven had more time to contribute and interestingly enough, returned to Wikipedia to work on more career-related articles, but slowed down once again due to classes in the fall.

On Aug 26, Riff experienced a dreaded BSoD on his computer, finally restarting it on the day of the Mofference, November 10, 2006. With the fall semester past, another opportunity to catch up became apparent, and the winter break brought increased contributions.

Steven then became serious about Celebration IV, which was to be hosted in Los Angeles, California. He had support from across the nation to represent Wookieepedia as well as his then popular Myspace Star Wars group. There was even discussion to raise donations and send them to a Paypal account, however the idea was not favored by everyone.

In the late winter of the beginning of 2007, arrangements were made for the 4-day pass, a 6-day hotel stay, and plane tickets.

Celebration IV
Steven made it to Los Angeles early on May 25, after the Fan Club day, due to a major delay in Dallas, Texas. As he was not a member of Hyperspace, Steven could not attend the associated events. When he did attend on the 25th, it was deemed "absolutely amazing", with costumed fans everywhere.

During the convention, Steven met the Wookieepedians Arthur Papadam, Tracy Duncan, John Hazlett, Andrew Beard, Kyle Jewhurst, Andrew Skinner, Mark Sandell, Simon Clough, Joe Weaver, Charlii Enström, Taylor Fenno, and Colby Butterfield. Bob Vitas helped us man the merged Wookieepedia/CUSWE table. He also met Abel G. Peña, Joe Corroney, Mary Franklin (whom had granted us our free table), Keeper of the Holocron Leland Chee, Dark Horse editor Randy Stradley, John Ostrander, Jan Duursema, Doug Wangler, Matt Busch, Tom Hodges, Tsuneo Sanda, Erik Varszegi, and C.C. Banana aka Bananakin Skywalker. Seth Green was seen inside the Vader helmet exhibit but Steven did not meet him. Indirectly, other people at continuity panel to whom Steven had the cojones to ask three questions to included Pablo Hidalgo (StarWars.com), Sue Rostoni (Lucas Licensing), Jonathan Rinzler (Lucas Licensing), Shelly Shapiro (Random House), Jacob Bronstein (Random House Audio). After leaving the Imperials Panel, Steven also opened the door for David Prowse (Darth Vader) and inadvertently for Julian Glover (General Maximilian Veers) and Kenneth Colley (Admiral Firmus Piett), all headed from the panel apparently to get something to eat.

Later years of the wiki
In December 2008, Steven graduated from Austin Peay State University with a Bachelor of Science in Geosciences-Geology and a minor in Astronomy.

Throughout 2009 and 2010, the wiki continued to expand under the constant attention of its large number of administrators and new users arriving daily. Additional reference guides, Expanded Universe novels, video games, and Clone Wars material lent to the growth of material found across the wiki. In addition, greater creation of redlinks resulted in areas previously not expanded on to grow.

In the wake of social media advances, and a wise recommendation from Dan Wallace, Steven created a Facebook fan page for Wookieepedia, that was moderated by him and other administrators. He had also taken an interest in Twitter and utilized to communicate with various fans and celebrities in the Star Wars fan base, including those adamant about Wookieepedia. Steven made an attempt to fully return to the wiki in mid-2010, after a lull in professional activities. By August 2010, Celebration V had arrived, but Steven was not able to attend due to funds and ongoing conflicts. He had however sent his best wishes to those that could represent the wiki on his and everyone else's behalf.

During the fall of 2010, Steven continued to balance his professional life with that of his wiki, editing articles, and working on appearance lists. His user page also underwent some house cleaning of unwanted and unneeded text and subpages. Steven was there to see Wookieepedia cross the 80,000 article threshold in September 2010, announcing news to followers on the Wookieepedia Facebook page. In April 2011, he participated in both April Fools' events and the following Mofference, the first in almost two years. For June 2011, Steven submitted a successful QOTD. In July 2011, Steven promoted his first ever article to Good Article status: Moogan, which he had actually created as a new stub in October 2010 during the release of the Clone Wars episode in which they were featured. For the Second Wookieepedia Barn-burner on Weapons in August 2011, Steven submitted the K26 explosive antivehicle rocket for Comprehensive Article Nomination.

In August 2011, Steven relocated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to attend the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee as a graduate student.

Again Steven balanced his school functions with that of staying active on the wiki. On Halloween 2011, he submitted his second GAN as part of Wookieepedia's first Shed-Scorcher. It passed on December 15, 2011. Steven then began to focus on bringing some small articles up to CAN status for the third Barn-Burner, the musical fish of Naboo.

By Spring 2012, Steven was once again hitting the convention circuit and attended C2E2 in Chicago, Illinois. There he interacted with Anthony Daniels and gifted him the article on C-3PO. Steven later revealed his Wookieepedia shirt on stage during a Q&A panel, albeit masked by another costume he was wearing at the time. Daniels, amused by this, considered Steven an "expert" and allowed him to sit at the front of the theater for the remainder of the show.

Steven was unable to attend Celebration VI, however was able to donate funds for the necessary internet connection for the table, and advertised via the Facebook group. Also during this time, Steve was approached by the team at StarWars.com about contributing to the Blog, that would be publically accessible to thousands of people. He was in the process of writing the first entries...

In the end, graduate school won, and he is currently in the process of writing his thesis....

Things I find interesting on Wookieepedia
{{Scroll box|content=

Wookieepedia-specific
"Well um, hmm, Riff thinks I have a voice like Dexter."
 * Anons who revert other anons.
 * Anons who underestimate the ban power of the wiki.
 * Our first bot, appropriately a familiar droid named Artoo.
 * That a few guys can grab the attention of an entire fanbase in only a year.
 * Users who insist on being Darths.
 * Users who go by character, location, or actor names.
 * An article titled "Hover Transport" that actually read "A transport that hovers."
 * That I never can finish what I start.
 * That I catch more mistakes after I saved for the first or second time.
 * That it's astounding how fast information is added from a released source only hours after made public.
 * That I can prevent myself from going crazy from spoilers by purchasing that source on that day.
 * That Wookieepedia on Wikipedia was nominated for deletion per WP:WEB as spam. Thankfully it was speedy kept.
 * That suspension of disbelief is fun to think about.
 * Darth Culator's user page.
 * That we somehow don't have articles for the inevitably to be released.
 * That I am one that wants to keep everything on the wiki, a true hyperinclusionist to the core.
 * Mineral does not always equal material.
 * That people still can't spell "Wookieepedia".
 * Guestbooks. I don't really favor them, but whatever.
 * I have never seen or heard anything like the Wookiee-Cast but I'm hooked on the Dexter-like voice of 4dot. (If he only knew which one I was talking about.)

- Wookiee-Cast III 5:18-5:24


 * Vandals that return a year later as redeemed users.
 * I created the 50,000th article, Solitaire. It's not much but it's canon and that's what counts.
 * The Other Wookieepedia
 * jSarek was the published question to Leland Chee in Star Wars Insider 96's Q&A section regarding Conan Antonio Motti's canon status, revealing his original name to be "Zi Motti" before Lucas intervened. Shown as "Sarek", he asked "How have you decided to treat the "Conan Antonio Motti" name... for Holocron purposes? Is it just another joke, or are you taking it a bit more seriously than that?" It was originally questioned on the SW.com forums on May 16, 2007.
 * This being said, I have found an instance of "Zi Motti" in Death Star while he talks to Admiral Jaim Helaw.
 * Interestingly enough, I was the first to ask Leland (or anyone in a panel) at Celebration IV's continuity panel on May 26, 2007 about the canonicity of this name, to which he replied "it will be revealed eventually". The publication of Death Star's Dramatis Personae and the Insider issue was the "eventually" part.
 * Do some users have a tendency to automatically vote with the most important person and not necessarily via a valid reason of their own?
 * I was almost deleted.
 * Galen Marek and Guri won Mister and Miss Star Wars respectively for 2008.

Canon

 * The amount of -ooine and -aan planets. See also User:Riffsyphon1024/Aanooine
 * Examples for -ooines include: Tatooine, Dantooine, Ventooine, Klatooine, Handooine, Entooine, Cardooine, Mantooine, Minntooine, Reltooine, Sestooine, Sistooine, Vactooine, and Velmooine. Most -ooines show up in the Rim.
 * Other possibilities might be Brintooin, Jandoon, Parshoone, Alvorine, Aviprine, and Humbarine.
 * Examples for -aans and the occasional -een include: Alderaan, New Alderaan, Aldereen, Falleen, Endoraan, Manaan, Delderaan, Taloraan, Chardaan, Nelvaan, Tiisheraan, Talaan, Ophideraan, and Nyriaan. Most -aans show up in the Core. Ophideraan is in the Outer Rim.
 * StarNeptune and I have speculated that maybe there is a link, maybe an ancient empire that ruled the Rim, and another in the Core, each warring factions of each other, marking their territory with these suffixes. Maybe even the homeworld of both was named Aantooine, before splitting up. It's only a fan theory. :)
 * A Galactic Census could be held: Humans would have an overwhelming majority, followed by Twi'leks, Rodians, Wookiees, and Hutts. They may not really be the most populous, but they are the most popular.
 * My new favorite word is osik. An example of this in action is: "Don't give me all that droids-have-rights osik." from Odds.
 * That no one was born in 0 BBY. Did a great disturbance in the force prevent childbirth across the galaxy? (Actually brought up at CIV)
 * JustinGann's findings of creature population per planet, with the order as 1) Naboo 2) Tatooine 3) Endor 4) Kashyyyk 5) Yavin 4 6) Dac 7) Ithor 8) Corellia 9) Dagobah 10) Haruun Kal 11) Ansion
 * Dashed Jedi names, as if they're all from the same place: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, and now Chu-Gon Dar, Belsed-Qan Idan, and Bodis-Ker Vitan. We still don't know where the first two come from which is beyond odd.
 * That Tyber Zann was based in appearance on the actor who plays Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter movies (Jason Issacs). Is it postulated that this reference may place Issacs in a forthcoming role in the TV series as Tyber Zann himself? See also Talk:Tyber Zann.
 * Who would substitute for Ambak, Blaylock, Cronau, and Mezzicanley?
 * That the Givin are truly the coolest species for being mathematically advanced.
 * That I wouldn't eat Ugorian food.
 * If I could be like Michael Tandre and become a species' spiritual leader on a distant planet nearly overnight.
 * Palpy had way too much time on his hands writing the Dark Side Compendium as each book would take 96 standard hours to read, a total of 288 standard hours.
 * The Burning sounds horrible.
 * I might consider a visit to Vaathkree.
 * Star Wars: Demolition was where it was at in 2000.
 * Dor is geologically fascinating.
 * Tiran = Einstein
 * The Albino Cyclops is one ugly creature.
 * Some people gotta understand that Wookiee porn consisting of Mermeia was the latest thing in that day.
 * Oh the horror of xenoboric acid!
 * Havet Storm was really that important.
 * The return of the Sweet One and a familiar friend in the late Legacy Era.
 * Something to watch for and hope becomes realized in the upcoming Clone Wars series: the Scorpenek annihilator droid
 * Katie Lucas made braces canonical.
 * Mace Windu survives bigger falls than that on Coruscant. Landed on a air taxi too I bet...
 * Legacy was even more fun after we knew who Darth Krayt was.
 * Lando's aptly-titled How to Succeed in Everything.
 * Lumiya makes her first appearance in the month of my birth, in Star Wars 88: Figurehead.
 * "Bannistar Station" would be a good banning cry.
 * I was wrong all along.
 * Note: there are still sources that capitalize: Geonosis and the Outer Rim Worlds
 * Combat Umbrellas. Seriously?
 * The Bi-Polar blaster carbine: Great idea but terribly inefficient.
 * One character looks like the President.
 * The Atlas still remains incomplete. Reasons for this:
 * The 1,024 sectors have not been fully assembled as hoped, but only in regions that have better astrography developed (especially those previously seen in WOTC and WEG material).
 * May be completed via the "living document" portion of the Atlas online.
 * Explanation for the -aans and -ooines remains mysterious like Yoda's species, though more showed up in the Atlas.
 * Per question/answer, this may expanded on online as well
 * The galaxy remains a work-in-progress. It will always be continuously updated as long as there are Star Wars television series, video games, novels, RPGs, etc...

 * I know this is complete speculation, but it's sorta dawned on me, and I'm not sure who else (not that I haven't seen on here), that Cade could potentially be spurred from Caedus. I wonder if Jacen Solo has been reconsidered as a great Force User by this time frame, and that his very Sith title might have been inspiration for our individual here. Again, definitely not canon. Just saying.

Some calculations
Taking a bit from MarcK and Darth Culator, I am curious as to how many new individuals we can expect from the Star Wars live-action TV series.

Assuming that there are 100 episodes at 45 minutes each (with commercials), that equivocates to 37.5 movies of equal time at 2 hours long each. If each movie at 2 hours is capable of producing roughly 500 new characters, both main and background, then it could be extrapolated that 37.5 movies worth of episodes times 500 characters = about 18,750 new characters! Whoa...

If this show goes to 400 episodes as Rick McCallum has hoped, that number could theoretically quadruple to 75,000 characters.

UPDATE: 11/12/2011 There needs to be a re-calculation on these types of estimates.

To relate this to Star Wars: The Clone Wars, there will be 88 episodes by the end of Season Four, each comprising 20 minutes of actual material in a 30 minute television block. Considering the number of re-occurring characters, we can only select those that are brand new to the TCW storylines. In this case, we may have upwards of 20 new characters per episode, assuming new continuities and not continuations of storylines from other episodes. That averages to about 440 characters. A most conservation estimate would shrink new characters down to 350 per season. For four seasons, that is still only 1400 characters. Had Clone Wars actually gone for 400 episodes, that number would result in about 7000 characters. Again, this is a conservative estimate for a show that is only 30 minutes long (with commercials).

Wookiee-Google growth

 * As of September 9, 2007, "Wookieepedia" gets 339,000 total hits on Google, with 164,000 being external and non-Wookieepedia site hits..
 * November 25, 2007, "Wookieepedia" gets 383,000 total hits, with 184,000 from the website itself.
 * In an odd reversal, as of February 3, 2008, "Wookieepedia" gets 197,000 total hits.
 * March 4: 201,000 total hits, 119,000 external
 * April 12: 201,000 total hits, no change
 * June 27: 354,000 total hits, with 177,000 external (exactly half)
 * July 31: 319,000 total hits, with 240,000 external
 * January 25, 2009: 299,000 total hits, 152,000 internal
 * June 17, 2009: 382,000 total hits, 310,000 internal
 * January 28, 2011: 942,000 total hits, 256,000 internal

 * March 4, 2012: 893,000 total hits, 291,000 internal

Wookieepotential
WPTL: 124,690 (current count: 109,253 as of Jan 20, 2012) (previous counts: WPTL of 105,250 while at 89,255 as of Jan 20, 2012; WPTL of 101,700 while at 85,400 as of Aug 1, 2011; WPTL of 92,000 while at 80,100 as of Oct 1, 2010)

This is an estimated number of articles which Wookieepedia could technically have created based on the level of released canon, by analysis of redlinks on source and media articles. This figure is always subject to change due to updates in canon or major releases of material, as well as more accurate pinnings of wanted articles. The current article count stands at .

Wikipedia Creations Moved Over
Sectors of Star Wars, Systems of Star Wars, Cities of Star Wars, Creatures of Star Wars, The Maw, and Repulsorlift

Other stances

 * Moved Category:Characters to Category:Individuals (completed March 31, 2006)
 * SparqMan's HoloNet News Page
 * I've made quite a few articles pertaining to things usually found in our own galaxy but also appear in the GFFA, including but not limited to: Water, Snake, Groundquake, Number system, Tattoos, Radiation, Carbon dioxide, Mercury, Silicon, Platinum, Magnetite, X-ray, Gamma ray, and all sorts of other elements and compounds. The reasoning is: if they are mentioned in any source, they exist in the GFFA

QOTD
My first successful QOTD came as the wiki passed 85,000 articles in June of 2011.

Comprehensive, Good, and Featured articles
