Current wiki interests

 * Making bot-based tools to assist in wiki maintenance (e.g., checking articles for plagiarism or every transclusion of an infobox for invalid parameters)
 * LGBTQ+ maintenance: Keeping cast members' names and pronouns up-to-date to affirm trans, non-binary & genderfluid identities; ensuring that characters have their pronoun fields filled out
 * Real-world CR media timeline
 * Exandrian calendar timeline (including for printed material and character age)
 * Integration of CritRoleStats-style data
 * Linking out to the Glossary from article pages
 * Updated prev/next episode navigation

Completed projects

 * Renumbered and renamed Talks Machina episodes (blog post)
 * Converted all articles titles and section headers to sentence case
 * Consolidated cities, towns, and villages into settlements (blog post)
 * Replaced the chapter system with the arc system (old wiki)
 * Created appearance objects for every character page and updated the infoboxes (old wiki)

Articles I'm proud of
Craven Edge's expanded biography. Creating Feast of Legends and its transcript & PC pages was pretty enjoyable.

To do

 * VOD script
 * Separate out actor list into text file (maybe other stuff as well?)
 * Allow for '-DM:' parameter e.g. checking for the mention of the break, defaulting to Matt
 * Check what's going on with editing the image description. Potentially make a new command like '-image_desc:' to allow for entering it fully manually
 * Stricter rules for flagging potential duplicates (i.e. closer together)
 * Append episode code in complex navbox
 * If editing the page isn't selected, like just making a transcript, don't e.g. force entering airdate
 * Read and write Appearance objects
 * standardize casing for template parameters
 * QA on wantedfiles file removal (b/c of this). Once infobox tabber is fixed, see what files are unused in Special:Unusedfiles and compare to articles to see where they might have been deleted
 * What else filmed at CR like Founders & Legends Jocks Machina that isn't CR production? Also other works for ttrpg specifically on actor pages
 * Add tabbed thumbnails for Geek & Sundry episodes (current version has numbers and campaign name overlay, already-uploaded are just cast pics)
 * Add podcast links for TM pages
 * Expand Julous Dominion, fix up Thordak, Blood magic
 * Try procedure for parsing Q&As from transcripts
 * maintenance script checking navbox templates for all pages with transclusions being in template and all pages in template having the transclusion, with named exceptions for the edge cases
