+ <p>Creating mods accidentally brought me deep into the world of documenting mods. Although nowadays I am not very active, I am an administrator of and a major contributor (with over 55,000 edits) towards the <a href="https://ftb.fandom.com/wiki/FTB_Wiki">Official FTB Wiki</a>, the largest, most popular and most up-to-date centralized repository of knowledge on modded Minecraft. In August 2016, I was awarded <a href="https://help.fandom.com/wiki/Editor_of_the_Month">Gamepedia Editor of the Month</a> for my "hard work across Gamepedia." Much of my contributions are not writing, but are of a technical nature, including some on-wiki scripting (in JavaScript, Lua, and "wikitext"), bot-making (<a href="https://github.com/xbony2/Experimental-Self-Aware-Electronic-Based-Space-Analyzing-Droid">"ESAEBSAD"</a> in Ruby for IRC, <a href="https://github.com/xbony2/ESAEBSAD2">ESAEBSAD2</a> in Groovy for Discord, <a href="https://github.com/xbony2/ESAEBSAD3">ESAEBSAD3</a> in Ruby...), <a href="https://github.com/FTB-Gamepedia/ATT-9001">a tool for automatically importing translations</a>, <a href="https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/huesodewiki">a mod to help editors</a>, and a lot of random run-once scripts and technical contributions to other wiki-related projects. When I was involved in writing, much of the writing involved carefully analyzing Java (rarely Scala/Kotlin) code. Non-technical contributions include refining wiki guidelines and guides, managing the translation projects, and organizing events (editathons and representation at virtual modded events).</p>
