I'm an active editor and [[Pikipedia:Patrollers|patroller]] here on Pikipedia, making many kinds of [[Special:Contributions/Soprano|contributions]]. {{p3}} is my favorite ''Pikmin'' game and most of my edits have been related to it, but I work on documenting the other games too. I also help keep the Main Page templates updated, and upload lots of images from time to time. If you need to ask me a question about the wiki, feel free to ask on my talk page, or [https://discord.gg/msMKc3G join Pikipedia's Discord server] and ask there. | ||

I first learned about ''Pikmin'' when {{p3}} came out. I didn't know about Pikipedia or any game wiki at the time. I got {{npcp1}} for my Wii, but it was too hard for me and I stopped playing halfway through. In mid-2014 I got a Wii U and ''Pikmin 3'', and that game was much more doable. I got {{npcp2}} in early 2016, and it was also too difficult, mainly because I didn't want to lose any Purple Pikmin. | I first learned about ''Pikmin'' when {{p3}} came out.

I started reading the wiki, and for the first few months of 2017 it was one of my favorite websites. I was eventually able to beat ''Pikmin 2'' with some help from the wiki, and later ''Pikmin'' as well. (When I say "I" in this paragraph and the last, I really mean "I and the person I live with"; until 2019, they played a lot more ''Pikmin'' than I did, and I mostly watched.) Throughout this time, I read the wiki a lot, eventually reading pretty much every article on the site, but I never thought of editing it. I got {{hp}} when it came out, but by then I wasn't reading the wiki much. | ||
A few years later, I finally decided to join Pikipedia in January 2020. At first I didn't edit very much, doing a few small edits and projects. But in August, {{p3d}} was announced. On the ''Pikmin'' Discord server (Pikcord), I became one of the most active theorists about the new game, looking at promotional material and discussing it with others. And on Pikipedia, I started uploading lots of promotional images and screenshots from trailers about this game. This led me to start editing more things. In particular, I noticed that the [[Menu]] article was getting very large and was lacking a lot of ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Hey! Pikmin'' information. I proposed to split the article into smaller articles about each menu screen to allow this extra information to be documented, and the resulting project to [[:Category:Menus|split the article]] and document more menu screens was my first major Pikipedia project. When ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'' came out, I uploaded a lot of screenshots to the wiki, mostly of the [[Side Stories]] stages, while documenting its new and updated features as well. | A few years later, I finally decided to join Pikipedia in January 2020.

These are some | These are some projects I planned to do at some point, but now that ''Pikmin 4'' is coming soon, it'll likely be a while before I get to any of these. Feel free to work on them if you want – a wiki is never complete, and when there are more people helping out, it's a better resource for everyone. | ||
