About me
Anything written here relies on my personal views only, and is not to be taken as part of the wiki's official views or policies.
My real name is Quentin, I'm a thirty-something French-speaking Belgian and a book seller in a department store. I joined the wiki in September 2008, making me the oldest active user... and its toughest caretaker!
Misc.
- Please take a look at the Manual of Style and the Layout Guide before doing anything.
- Feel free to add me on Discord or Steam. I tend to accept every friend (but not group) invite, but I tend to cleanup my friend list from time to time when I don't remember who's who. So if at some point you notice I removed you, that's because we never chatted and thus I don't remember who you are. Don't be offended and readd me if you like.
- You can join our Discord channel, our Steam group, become a fan on Facebook, follow us on Twitter or even subscribe to our YouTube channel. Yes, don't be shy, click!
- Despite my insane editcount (and it's a good thing the old Wikia count isn't included here), I don't do everything manually. I'm not that crazy, I have many tools and tricks to simplify most tedious tasks, both through my own account and DOG's.
Stuff I made
I worked on many articles and created lots of templates (including most of the userboxes) and categories, uploaded most of the sound files (most of them have been removed for technical reasons) and added/improved countless images (such as the Raising the Bar cover or the Episode Two poster remade from scratch) ; it would be impossible and pointless to mention them all here. I also created the current and some of the previous Combine OverWiki logos, as well as (in the past) the other general layout, main page and skin customizations. Today other users took over the layout and skin issues.

These logos are all based on logos featured in the HL/P universe (except for the "Other" section). I created them all from scratch, except for the City 17 logos that are based on the original Missing Information one. Anyone who'd like a custom wallpaper based on these, feel free to ask.
