Star Wars is great. The Wookieepedia is a great procrastination technique. Enough said...

I'm an Admin here, so if I can help in that way, let me know. I'm known on theforce.net as Eyrezer and the Official site forums as Kiro, although I infrequently post.

I've recently begun sourcing images from here. At the moment we have 27,719 images uploaded, of which 6,282 were in the unsourced category! That's around 22%, a rather poor effort. (In an update on this situation, we have now gotten it down to around 647, an impressive effort!)

=Star Wars and the Wookieepedia= I've really enjoyed my time at Wookieepedia, discovering new aspects of the Star Wars universe that I was unfamiliar with, and contributing to the prominence of other aspects. I enjoy finding a corner of the universe and working on all that touches it. In this vein, I've worked on the Empire Reborn, getting that article up to FA as well as working on many of the individual battles involved in that conflict. This was followed up with work on the Nagai invasion storyline from the Marvel comics. I worked on a number of the battles again, as well as the characters such as the four Zeltron aides, etc. Other areas I've worked on are Farfalla's Knights&mdash;including work on the Envoy&mdash;lots of work on the New Jedi Order&mdash;at present I've written most of that article, as well as working on a number of individuals such as Kelbis Nu.

I keep a list of my article creations here.

Alien species

The huge variety of alien species in Star Wars has always delighted me, and I have transferred this interest to the Wookieepedia. I worite the article on Species (which I hope to FA eventually). I 've also taken a number of species to FA, starting with Drovian which was followed with the Tunroth, Carosites, and Bouncers. I was inspired to write these articles by Volemlock's groundbreaking effort on the Gamorrean article.

I've also pieced together smaller articles such as the Entymal, Cha'a, and three unnamed species; the Tri-horned species, stalk-eyed species, and the purple-faced species.

Images

A major contribution I've made to the Wookieepedia is in adding images. It was this aspect that first attracted me to the Wookiee, as CUSWE had no pics. As such, I have uploaded a ton of pics.

I've also begun pushing to get all images sourced. When I started, we had 27,719 images uploaded, with 6,282 of them in the unsourced category. That's around 22%, a rather poor effort. With good efforts from myself and a number of editors we are now down to the mid 4500s; a good start!

Retcons

I especially enjoy the random or obscure connections in the SW universe, as exemplified by the work of Abel Peña. One connection I was the first to point out, was the association of Vongerella with the pic from the Hero's Guide which Pena subsequently confirmed. I also identified the Kashi Mer talisman as being the same item in Relic and The Emperor's Pawns.

YJK Fanfic

I've made some small forays into fanfic, mostly revolving around the unidentified characters in Jacen and Jaina's class at the Jedi Praxeum. Biographies of three of these characters can be found on my blog. I've tried to make them completely consistent with the wider EU. They all have their origins in references made in the Young Jedi Knights of Junior Jedi Knights series.
