Who on Azeroth am I?
Hello, I'm Kirkburn, aka George, and I'm here to help you with your gaming wiki!
I work with Wikia to both help out existing communities and launch wikis for new games.
In another life I admin the WoWWiki, the leading wiki about the Warcraft universe, which moved to join Wikia in 2007.
- What I do
As part of the Wikia Helper Group, I have the same abilities as an admin, although I normally stay out of most wiki-specific admin issues :)
Normally I swoop in to help with one of several things:
- Clean up and organise wikis
- Announce new products and projects
- Help guide wikis to greatness
- Act as the diplomat in disputes
- Import and design new templates and pages
Feel free to request aid from me, and I'll see what I can do!
[edit] Contact me
Please feel free to ask me any questions on my Wikia Central User talk:Kirkburn page!
If you're a fan of IRC, you can normally catch me in several channels - mainly the chat.freenode.net, #wikia and chat.freenode.net, #wikia-gaming channel. If you do not usually use IRC, you can connect on your browser using the Wikia Chat portal.
To email me, visit here - please include "Wikia" in the subject!
[edit] In real life
I am a resident Brit, recently out of University, who spends his time annoying the neighbours with loud, thumping music and batting people round the head as a scout. In Team Fortress 2.
I also created a popular addon for World of Warcraft called ClearFont.
[edit] Guides and projects
- Two quick guides I helped write
- Projects you may have come across
- I am currently working on revamping Wikia Help, Wikia's MediaWiki extensions and general help wiki.
- I helped redesign the starter wiki for new wikis - if you spot problems with it, do let me know!
- At SXSW 2008, I took part in a discussion panel regarding game wikis - report on Massively.com.
