User blog:Friedebarth/Calloo Callay - There's stuff underway!

So, as some of you guys know and some of you don't, my biggest current project is the character page for Darth Vicious&mdash;on a side note, before I begin with the important stuff, I'm frustrated about the title: "Darth Vicious (alternative)". It kind of sucks. And when I'm saying kind of, I mean it really sucks. Why? Well, the author of Darth Vicious, the annoying stub, probably won't change the tiniest bit about that article in the forseeable future. The forseeable future meaning, the author of that article's lifetime :-/

But anyway, back to what I was originally going to say – the fact that there's stuff underway. For Darth Vicious. The three main reasons he's such a big project are: For the third one, I'm getting feedback on that (hopefully) soon from Brandon who put the templates there in the first place. Another thanks to him because, if it really needs a big cleanup in this primitive state already, I'd better get going to correct those errors in order for it to become featured some time.
 * 1) He's got a lifespan of 5'000 years. Okay, he's hibernating for almost a milennium. That makes it 4'000 years though, and that's still quite a lot.
 * 2) I want to cover every single more important bit of his life. Yes that's right. So, while some authors would just skip a milennium and leave that open for others to explore, I'm doing the whole bunch.
 * 3) I'm trying to make this a featured article. So the various notices on the top of the article (needs cleanup, wrong tense etc.) made me a little frustrated (particularly because I didn't see inhowfar it's written in the wrong tense or needs a cleanup).

So, basically, I have the entire biography in my head by now (which you can see by the fact that the main structure of it is already there in the article and I have inserted quotes in various of those sections). Now, the difficulty lies in bringing it to paper. Or, better yet, in this case: To the article ;) Whether I'll have time over the week is still unclear... ...if not, the weekend will be my writing refuge. Most probably however I'll only be able to do small stuff over the week and get down to serious business next weekend only. Or perhaps not. Let's just wait and see.

And should it ever become featured then I'll ask for permission to move the "Darth Vicious" stub to "Darth Vicious (alternative)", and my Darth Vicious to "Darth Vicious". For now, I won't, because my article isn't much better than that guy's one, and it'd be unnecessary and a little too unfriendly. I'm hoping that I can move it when it's featured, though :)
