Hello there, I am Vipz (and sometimes known as Viper), a member of a couple of the NIWA wikis, having joined WiKirby on April 25th, 2018. I have been introduced to the Kirby franchise through a somewhat unpopular main series title Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, and since have played most earlier entries too. I'm not especially active on the wiki at the moment, but reactivating is always an option.

• My sandbox page
• My transclusive subpage

Interests

• Lost, obscure and canceled entries of the franchise.
• Pre-release, beta and unused content preserved at Unseen64 and TCRF.
• TAS-ing and learning technicalities (& bugs/glitches).
• Hunting websites, magazine/manual scans, missing footage.
• Eventually playing more games than I have.

To-do

• Extract artwork from SWF-s and manuals for the wiki.
• Development, Staff, Music/Media sections on game articles.
• Rework Template:FP3 for easier management (might be automatized like Template:MPvid or Template:DYK).
• Find sources for archived Category:Files lacking sources and Category:Files with incomplete sources so they can be used in mainspace.

Admin-needed

• Categorize background wiki images into Category:URL-linked images.
• Move appropriate featured picture nominations from this to occasional archive
• Update Special:Interwiki and add MiiWiki.

Done

• Template:Image-pixelate
• Fill up External links (official websites and uploaded manuals)
• Proposal of the NIWA wikis template - failed in favor of infoboxes.
• Re-design of WiKirby:Affiliates/WiKirby:Partnerships.
• Decide whether and to what extent to cover unused content - coverage on game articles or development subpages.

Custom themes

Here's a list of custom themes you can use and modify, usually for seasons and holidays. Listed here are my designs based on YFJ's and Kirb's previous work and Fabric patterns. Most will likely be improved with time.

Winter holidays

• monobook.css - common.css - result

Useful Firefox CSS for the wiki

To use custom CSS scripts, either get an extension like Stylish, or type into the search bar "about:support", find and open "Profile directory", create a "chrome" folder, then create userContent.css there with any of this code.

New tab image transparency

Modified from this repository to hide white background added by the browser itself, useful for checking bad fansparency of Category:Low quality images.

@-moz-document regexp("(.*\.(apng|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|webp|avif|ico|bmp|APNG|PNG|JPG|JPEG|GIF|WEBP|AVIF|ICO|BMP)([\?#].*)*$)|(^data:image/.*)"){

  @media not print {
    img.transparent:only-child{
      background: none !important;
    }
  }
}
