.- Salvidrim is my Internet-wide username, sometimes abbreviated as "Salv" for convenience's sake. I reserve the right to alter your comments if you misspell my username!
.- I will definitely attend Wikimania 2017 -- it's happening right in my own downtown! If you plan on being there and would like to meet up for a chat or a few beers, let me know! I guess I also have a couch to crash on for friends in trouble. :p
.- My real name is Benoit Landry, I'm a male French Canadian by birth, thus I am fully bilingual; je parle français!
.- I'm always ready to be proven wrong, so if I do or say something stupid, {{trout}} me freely!
.- I'm a gamer at heart, so you'll often find me hanging around WikiProject:VG.
.- I'm a gnome, through and through, and couldn't prose my way out of a wet paper bag.
.- I enjoy participating in or closing consensus-seeking activities like RMs, XfDs, RfCs and so on; perhaps especially participating in VG-related discussions, and closing meta ones (MRV, DRV, etc.)
.- I will alter your talk page comments if their format is an obstacle to comprehension. I will not change their content (other than as described on the first bullet point), but will not hesitate to fix links, templates, headers or indentation... especially indentation.
.- The WikiPhilosophies I identify with moderately are eventualism and rehabilism. I'm a softie for second chances.
.- I vigorously defend and "enable" the infamous hated-but-productive editors. I'm willing to go the extra mile and try my best to channel their energy and contibutions towards their area of expertise, and minimize or disregard the inevitable conflicts around them; because I value their contributions more than I value "a good editing atmosphere". But that sentiment is often at odds with the general population1 and that disappoints me.
.- If an IP or plausible sock is editing constructively, then I prefer not knowing if they're secretly a banned user, for some people might clamor for a block despite policy that says rules should never get in the way of improvements.
.- As you can see.... I'm really, really into bullet points.
.- I use a handful of user scripts, adding more whenever I find them.
.- From home, I edit via Chrome on Win7 Ultimate x64, at work I edit via Firefox on Win7 Professional x32, and about half of the time I edit from my Nexus 6P via Chrome on Android 6.0, via the Desktop version of Wikipedia (both the Mobile version and the official App suck).
.- I create a bunch of redirects to existing articles whenever I notice they might help.
.- If I see an article-less topic which passes any notability guideline, I'll sometimes stub it for others to improve.
.- I am not in favor of allowing unregistered contributors to edit but I understand the current consensus.
.- I don't have as much free time as I wish I did, but I do what I can, when I can. Hours of hyperactivity follow days of passive watching.
One of the most important things to remember is this: When dealing with a "bad doer", be it a sockpuppet, vandal or edit warrior, you have to remain calm. Cool. Collected. If you ramp up the drama, you make it more likely that they will retaliate even more, so now you have more vandalism, more socks, more problems. Failure to handle a situation in a calm manner leads to more problems, more drama. — Dennis Brown, [1]

Other misc creations
Currently thinking of working on
- Jetpack Fighter and maybe Paladins: Champions of the Realm from Hi-Rez Studios
- Richard Magarey (aka Ladybeard), Aussie actor/stuntman (see IMBD), wrestler (find stats) and vocalist of Ladybaby
- Ninja Senki from Tribute Games
- A Game of Dwarves, 2012, published by Paradox Interactive
- Pick from the list of games from Neko Entertainment; merge Cocoto, expand company article, see about translating FR articles for partner dev/publishers, make a category
- Super Mario Fushigi no Janjan Land (TMK), Dian Shi Mali (AfD'ed), other obscure (possibly unlicensed) Mario games, I'm sure there has to be some coverage out there; if only a few sources each, make it a list! Add with sources to the list of unofficial Mario games.
- Quest: Fantasy Challenge (Holy Magic Century in EU) [1][2]; Quest 2 [3]; maybe merge these into a Quest (series), or Elemental Tale/Eletale/Eltale (series)? There's only 3 (+1 cancelled) games overall, but it would be simpler than clumsily referring to Quest: Brian's Journey as a "demake" of Quest 64.
Mario Kirby Masterpiece or somesuch title; see my 2012 Q2 archive. (should be into List of non-video game media featuring Mario)
- Write some sort of an essay on my view about mandatory registration to enable editing... 1
