Some things about me
So I never really had anything about me here, but I guess it's time to at least put something. *ahem*
My name is Justin Folvarcik, and I live in Florida. I've been a part of Zelda Wiki since 2009, when I was an incredible n00b. However, after much hard work and self-improvement, I got better and learned how to edit like an intelligent person. Then, I started learning how to code, which brought me immense pleasure. I love working with web coding and doing development and administration. In fact, I've actually written a couple of extensions which are installed on Zelda Wiki! Now, I've been active here for quite a while, and I joined the staff as a patroller sometime in 2010. However, I took a two year hiatus from the site which began in late 2010. Most people assumed I was never coming back (including me), but I eventually did resurface in late 2012, when I regained my patrol rights and resumed my staff position. Sometime later, I was promoted to admin, and that brings us to today. I do a lot of server work, including administration of the server, both the database and the wiki filesystem. As such, I am considered a bureaucrat, although this does not mean that I am above the other administrators! I simply handle different tasks than most of them. I'm also quite friendly, so if you ever have any questions about anything, feel free to come to me with them.
I'm very code-savvy, so if you're having problems with templates, javascript, css, or anything like that, my talk page is a good place to get your question answered. Also, if anything on the wiki is broken or working improperly, please let me know on my talk page.
Unrelated to wiki stuff, I enjoy fishing, shooting pool, hanging at bars, and watching pointless YouTube vids. I'm also a brony, and I highly enjoy My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It's got a great community (well, aside from the weirdos, that is) and the music that comes out of it is pretty awesome.
Writing
So, I like to write. Right now, I'm writing a My Little Pony fanfic (ha ha ha, laugh it up) which is very dark and tragic. It's on FiMFiction if you'd like to read it. Dis be it.
I also plan to revive an old story I was writing (which is not a fanfic and has no relation to My Little Pony). But I'd like to finish the fanfic first. I've already put a lot of work into it.
Now then, on to userboxes of uselessness.
Coding Resume
- Patrolled Edits extension: Extension for the MediaWiki software which tells how many edits a user has patrolled.
- Patrol Magic extension: Adds new magic words/parser functions to the wiki software to output information on how many edits have been marked as patrolled overall.
- Similar Images extension: Outputs images which are duplicated or have similar filenames in a gallery on a special page. (Currently broken, and I have no intentions of fixing it. POINTLESS EXTENSION IS POINTLESS.)
