User:Robovski

'Robovski' is a long time user of the internet (since 1995), who has recently (re)started contributing to the Wiki Community. He lives in Scotland with his wife, is a US ex-pat from Chicago, and has an undue interest in such geeky things as computer games, science, science fiction, & gaming. Other interests include poker, history, economics, & television. Mostly his contributions are done whilst working as a phone jockey for a UK bank.

Windmills to be Jousted At (aka The Stuff I'm Working On)

 * Spore (video game) - ongoing development of this game means new/changing information in article until at least release. Right now it needs a lot of clean-up to remove duplications, add in-line references, keep information current, and to fight vandalism (sometimes well-meaning).
 * The Sims 2 - current game and new expansions are out pretty regular so requires updating as new info comes out and protection from vandalism.
 * Current events - regular patrol for NPOV, vandalism, and quality; also I Wikify where I think it's relevant.

Wishes and Speculations (aka The Stuff I Think I Might Do)

 * Community areas of Chicago - so far added some color copy to Irving Park and added internal links to Albany Park - which areas were independent towns before being incorporated into Chicago?
 * Fife - Needs some expansion, also other local Scottish villages could get some working on.
 * Shawnee Hill - did some formtting and added links and put on Shawnee disamgiguation page, needs more copy, maybe pics.
 * Robovski - wish I'd keep my own article as current as some of my projects ;)

Done
That is, articles that I have done what I can for. Generally, things that are in the done pile were items I just came across randomly that needed attention or personal interests. I really can't take credit for creating many articles, but I try to contribute where I can. Once I'm involved, I'm also watching the articles to ensure against vandalism and to keep abreast of the subject.
