*Went back through the entirety of [[:Category:Runs]] to ensure all old AARs had proper SemanticWiki tags.
*Did the above so [[Template:RunHistory]] would work for everyone. This template now also adds characters to [[:Category:Active Runners]] if they have had a run in the past 6 months.
*Got really annoyed at the bloat on contact pages showing unapproved and inactive characters or just not listing active characters, and created [[Template:ContactPlayerConnections]] to address that. This template checks [[:Category:Active Runners]] to automatically include runners who have the contact and had a run in the past 6 months in the list. Yay!
*To make the above work, [[Template:ContactTable]] and the nested [[Template:HasContact]] were created to ensure everything is tagged properly. With those combined, redundant entries of information were eliminated and I was significantly less irritated by them.
*Created [[Template:ContactDicepools]] which is an annoying hack of a solution to the problem but I can't be bothered to make it less ridiculous and hey, it works.
*Created [[Template:AspectTable]] and associated templates [[Template:PositiveAspect]] and [[Template:NegativeAspect]]. These tag aspects properly and display them in a nice standardized table.
*Created [[Template:GroupContactTable]] and associated [[Template:GroupContact]] to do to group contacts what I did to other contacts.
*Made [[Template:CategoryTemplate]] specifically so we can tag [[Template:Run AAR]] and [[Template:Player Character]] in [[:Category:Templates]] without the risk of people accidentally adding themselves to [[:Category:Templates]] when copying the page.
*Speaking of that, cleaned up [[:Category:Templates]] of cases where that exact thing happened. There were many.
*Stupidly pleased about [[Property:ActivePlayerContacts]]. No really, it makes me really happy that this is a thing now and I really can't explain why.
*Just sort of makes generally needlessly pretty pages. Like all this unnecessarily fancy stuff with curved borders and filled background. I also ended up making a thick border gray table my sort of signature in a lot of places.
*I'm really happy with how [[Shadowhaven Combat Tournament]] ended up looking.
*Created [[Template:CDP]] to help lazy people track their CDP without worrying about forgetting to note it down on any given run.
*Created [[Template:Age]] just because I was mildly annoyed that some contacts have been 27 for the past 3 years since they were created. Now we can make them tick up a year automatically every year. Oh, and it works for PC pages, too. So, that's actually useful.
After another wiki frenzy, we ended up with [[Template:SearchTable]], [[Template:LocationRuns]], [[Template:Location]], [[Template:LocationInfobox]], [[Template:ContactInfobox]], and prolly a few others.
*Hey so turns out [[MediaWiki:Vector.css]] is a thing and after many many '''MANY''' requests from like, half the community or something, now the wiki has dark mode enabled! Yay. I mean, I had to edit something like 2 dozen pages or so to fix a lot of things that no longer fit the color scheme but the wiki sure looks better now.
**Reminder to self about [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] as well, since oh boy that is how I edit the CSS for things like the infoboxes.

*Basically I hijacked the entire wiki and claimed it as my domain so I could change all the things that were annoying me and ''nobody stopped me'', so I kinda got away with it.
**Well, I got away with it for a while, but then as punishment I was made [[Charter#Division_of_the_Wiki|Editor-at-Large for the Wiki]].
***It doesn't really change much, I still do all the same things as before only this time it's expected of me and I also have the official authority to do all the things I previously didn't bother asking permission to do. Which I guess is one way to resolve that.
*Incidentally, if you like the stuff I've done or at the very least find it easy to make use of, please let me know. I can not tell you how much it means to me when someone appreciates this stuff.
**Likewise, I'm always interested in feedback or any way to improve things. I want to help make the wiki easier for everyone to use, and support the creation of helpful tools within the wiki we can make use of.
