February Moderator Elections 2022/Evalprime

Contributions * Discussions * Editcount

I'm nominating myself for moderatorship due to recent needs for such permissions. as a technical editor for the Big Nate Comments Section Wiki, I have frequently encountered templates and pages that have been protected. in addition, certain changes to the wiki such as changing MediaWiki:Common.css or MediaWiki:Common.js require a large amount of bureaucracy that could be beneficially cut down. because I also frequent Special:RecentChanges and can identify an edit war or vandalism, the rollback and protection permissions of a content moderator would be handy in stopping such wars or acts of vandalism. my technical background would also allow me to write JavaScript snippets that could be used by fellow moderators to moderate more effectively.

upon receiving moderatorship, I intend to continue my regular routine of patrolling the wiki. however, as I previously explained, the aforementioned benefits of moderatorship would aid the wiki and its users and upon encountering a situation that would require such permissions, I will have no hesitation to use those permissions.

some of my exemplary work on this wiki includes:


 * Profile: The Dawnbreaker - I improved this page by adding an infobox and more information about The Dawnbreaker.
 * Template:Infobox User - I redid the infobox template by standardizing common information to include in such an infobox.
 * User:Evalprime/bank.js - as part of the work done for User:ChaseWinner, I created a JavaScript snippet to add checkmarks or X marks next to certain rewards on BNCW Bank.
 * Module:Bank - as part of the work done for User:ChaseWinner, I created a Lua module to dynamically add people to the BNCW Bank list.
 * Template:Stub - I improved the design of this template with a more dark mode friendly design (hoorah!)
 * User:Evalprime/common.js & User:Evalprime/common.css - I created a JavaScript and CSS snippet to add color to Special:RecentChanges and format it with rows and columns.
 * The Sonic Conflict - as part of my earlier work done on this wiki, I added a large amount of information to this page and removed its stub status.
 * Template:Userquote - I created a template to standardize user quotes with a clean design.
 * Template:Banned & Template:NOM - I redesigned both templates to fit a better aspect ratio.
 * User:Evalprime/Project/Users - I created a WikiProject to improve the user page articles.
 * Module:Banned - I converted the article The Bannings to a module for easy editing and a defined format that is easy to read and sortable.
 * Timeline of Big Nate Comments Section history - I started a project to try to make the most comprehensive, clear, and concise BNCS timeline.
 * Evalprime bot - I created Evalprime bot to automate tedious tasks, such as converting the remaining unconverted community activity articles into the Community Activity namespace. Evalprime bot has 412 edits since February 11, 2022 as of February 18, 2022.
 * Template:Mbox - I created a central template to create more consistent templates. a challenge I faced creating this template was designing a color theme that would work on both light and dark mode since I don't have access to Common.css. I successfully overcame this challenge with a color scheme that works on both modes.
 * GitLab - I created a GitLab group to centralized scripts and templates used on the wiki and promote open-source.
 * I started a project to fix the names of every article to have proper formatting and correct namespaces.
 * I started a project to improve the templates on the wiki, including redirecting ambiguous templates into one template and improving their design.

while my posts on Discussions are a bit lackluster, I have contributed positively to the wiki through them:


 * RfC: converting user pages to namespaces - while I don't know what came of this, I opened up discussions about converting profiles to namespaces. as a moderator I could likely push this idea further and have action taken towards this.

throughout my history on this wiki I have not been involved in any conflicts or wars with any user, nor received any disciplinary action (you can prove it!)
