The cat who can never solve the Rubik's cube due to lack of opposing thumbs :`(
So many things to do, and so little time to do them. Will only be active till sometime early January 2010. After that I'll be MIA till late May due to work and study commitments. If there's anything urgent, drop me a message on Facebook :) -- Grexx 08:34, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Recent restrictions on user edit rights
I understand that the user rights are now very restrictive, with normal users not being able to edit articles nor discussion pages. Thus for the time being, if users have something really important to add to a discussion or article, they may message me through Facebook with fully edited information and I will update it on your behalf. Note that I have very limited time however, so will only be able to assist on weekends and evenings (GMT +8). Make sure to include your wiki alias as well as the article link. -- Grexx 16:23, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
Guidelines & notes for editors
Some users might have noticed that I have been laying out general guidelines for some of the more major articles on the MH Wiki. This is done mainly so that editors will have a point of reference in case there are any doubts about a particular issue. However, the guidelines I put up are not set in stone, neither are they indisputable. They are there primarily to make the whole editing process go more smoothly and reduce the number of disputes. Requirements change over time, and sometimes the guidelines can and do become outdated. If any other editor has a better or alternate way of presenting an article, they should go ahead and propose or make the required changes. Please do remember to pass major changes through some form of feedback before any implementation, usually by stating it in the respective articles' talk page. -- Grexx 20:22, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Some of the articles which have had substantial input from myself:

Outstanding Issues
A bunch of things that need work on, that I don't have the time to get to at the moment:
- Deciding what to do with potion articles, either moving the potion articles into the cheeses, such as Brie Alchemy Potion into Brie, or Radioactive Blue Cheese Curd Potion into Radioactive Blue, or leaving separate and reducing the redundancy among pages at the moment (repetitive advice).
- Brief writeup on how to navigate in the Location Quick Reference article, mentioning internal section links and external links
- MHWiki:Data Links needs updating due to changes over the months.
- Updated Mouse subsection. Other sections pending.
- Rewording the Stale Cheese article for better flow, splitting into proper subsections. Some strategies are similar for all stale cheese types, but some are distinct, need to separate or maybe create a table to present it better.
- Many pages lack See Also links to link up with related articles, and of those pages that do have them, many lack good, brief descriptions on what those links are about. Outstanding issue for over 6 months now.
- Cleanup of all Hunting Strategy sections within individual location articles. Some of them are skewed towards a certain viewpoint, and poorly presents the different choices available.
- Adjustment of Larry's tips to start off the hunting strategy sections, as well as adjustment to the strategy writeups to complement Larry's tips and remove any redundant areas that could confuse players.
