User blog:RileyIvy/One Year As Admin: Taking a Look Back

Fellow Stephenites and friends of the Wiki,

As the title says, I was promoted to administrator on this wiki one year ago today. Thus, I'd like to take a quick moment to thank people who have helped us succeed as a Wiki since my promotion.

Our only bureaucrat on this Wiki is Stephen himself, and I would like to thank him, first and foremost, for giving me this opportunity to further contribute here as a way to channel my passion for his and Mal's content.

Next, I would like to thank everyone who has contributed here on the Wiki. An extra special thanks goes to those who have edited at least somewhat actively since I started editing here: Aurycle, Jirkasim, Setachisato, and SuperSmashLegend. We couldn't have gotten this far without all of you!

Lastly, I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed before I began. I can't even begin to list out everyone's names, but if you're reading this, please know your hard work is appreciated.

To end this blog off, I'm going to set out some goals I'd like to make for this Wiki, so as to create specific goals besides listing new videos as they're released and doing our best to create pages for already released videos. First, I'd like to have fewer than 500 wanted pages at the end of the year. Second, I'd like to completely finish the backlog of VlogMail and MalMakes by the end of this year. Lastly, I'd like to see the old timeline vlogs completely caught up, and to have no more than 100 Memorable Moments from 2019 at the end of the year. While there is no harm done if these tasks don't get completed, I would like us push to create a more thorough StephenWiki that I know we can be. While I won't be as available as previously during the school year, nor do I expect the same of all of you, I still believe we can accomplish these goals with enough resolve.

I can be contacted on my talk page or via Twitter, which is linked in my profile. See you around the Wiki!
