Things Nico Does

Completed/Ongoing Projects

Site News

I have been doing site news since September 2018.


Introductions

Greeting newcomers to the site.


Forum Crit

Providing crit on the forums, I guess.


Gears Day Hub

A hub for Dr. Gears day collections. Made alongside DexanoteDexanote.


Ode To The Unknown Author

A hub dedicated to the various authors who have contributed to the site who'se names have been lost to the sands of time.


General Site Lookout/Maintenance

I keep an eye on the forums for potential dogpiles, shitposting, trolls, etc. I also monitor recently created for uses of Mainlist as a Sandbox and offensive/terrible stuff and report it to 17 ASAP.


That Halloween CSS

NewyRoseNewyRose is largely responsible for it, but I was also involved.


Alexylva University Hub

I designed and did the theme/css for the hub as well as prettied up the page. Made in collaboration with RounderhouseRounderhouse and IhpIhp.


Relocalized 484 files

A user was taking up 20% of the total wiki's image hosting capability. I, along with MrPinesMrPines, Rat LordRat Lord, and UraniumEmpireUraniumEmpire worked to free up the space and re-host the images while not disturbing the artist's page.


Contributed an Essay

There was a disturbing lack of essays regarding magical items and their abundancy in the Foundation, so I wrote one.


cliche-Con 2019

Hosted an on-site contest with taylor_itkintaylor_itkin


Community Survey 2018 Results

Combed through the survey's answers to pick out any trolls and other bad elements. Handled a total of 1250. Worked alongside RounderhouseRounderhouse, DrAnnoyingDogDrAnnoyingDog, Rat LordRat Lord, taylor_itkintaylor_itkin, and TSATPWTCOTTTADCTSATPWTCOTTTADC.


Fixed the Tag Guide

Updated the tag guide to include a bunch of new/missing tags. Also cleaned up the tags on about 20 articles which had erroniously used unnapproved tags as per ChaoSeraChaoSera's discretion. Worked alongside DarkStuffDarkStuff with some assistance from TSATPWTCOTTTADCTSATPWTCOTTTADC.


Butterfly Squad Hub

Wrote basic information and designed the butterfly squad hub for ZynZyn and the other butterflies.


INT Wave 2

Leading the Second INT articles wave and managing Jstaff to help on the project.


Contributed a simple to read Images Guide

Because we really needed one.


Contributed an essay with every single GoI on the site

To facilitate new authors writing the gois and understanding their themes.


GoI Seminar

Worked alongside taylor_itkintaylor_itkin to create and provide an in-depth tutorial to authors and critters alike on how to write and crit goi formats and articles with gois in them.


Designed, Lead Discussion, and Established site navigation updates

Because site navigation was very not user-friendly and cluttered before.
