Hello. This is C.Ezra.M, formerly known as Bfdifan2006, Wojciech Marzec. A Junior Admin since May 26, 2024.

My adventure with Bulbapedia began when I was a user previously known as TheICTLiker4, then as Keyacom, at 5th April 2018. Keyacom used to be, by the way, the name I went by in most places on the Internet. However, in March 2020, I was prepared for global user rename and it stopped on Bulbanews.

Proof:

  1. User talk:Keyacom#Username change request
  2. Message from the Editor, April 2, 2020

I did incorporate elements from my old userpage, such as my list of Shiny Pokémon, most usertags, and the "Pokémon of the Day" box below.

Note: This infobox is from before I started to experiment with modular infoboxes, which I told Rustle about that I wanted to propose the shift.

Usernames

  • TheICTLiker4: ICT means information, communications and technology. 4 is my lucky number, formed from summing the numbers from my birth date, and repeating that until I got a single digit.
  • Keyacom: keyboard and computer, representing my interest in IT.
  • Bfdifan2006: Bfdi is derived from BFDI, the first object show I watched. It helped me learn better English a lot. 2006 is my birth year.
  • C.Ezra.M: In full, it is Cody Ezra Marcel, a name I made up for myself. Cody because I like coding. Ezra because I am trying to be helpful. Marcel, and the entirety of C.Ezra.M, are references to my last name. Specifically, C.Ezra.M, when the punctuation is removed, is my last name backwards.

Introduction (taken from my old userpage)

[...] I'm a fan of Pokémon. I began being interested as Pokémon GO was finally released in 2016. Then, I started playing in the summer and my first Pokémon was a Charmander. I stopped playing because I didn't understand the tedious Pokémon Trainer Club login process. But after nearly 2 years or so, I have started again, with a completely new account. My first Pokémon was a Bulbasaur.

Why I like Pokémon

In 2017 or so, one of my classmates had a phone and showed me, how to get and play Pokémon FireRed on an emulator, and I quickly started downloading more emulators and games. I've played games in all 9 generations. I'm also planning to also play Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu. But on my 13th birthday, I received a Nintendo 2DS and a cartridge of Pokémon Sun. However, before Christmas Eve 2019, I decided to play Pokémon Sword. I no longer have the 2DS, but I have a Nintendo Switch Lite. I play both Pokémon Sword and Shield.

As of May 9, 2023, I have a Nintendo Switch OLED. Dad sold the Switch Lite after I transferred the data.

General life

I got interested in programming both because they are a wanted job, and it pays a lot of money. I studied web development in Years 1 and 2 of high school. Additionally, in Year 2, I had PHP and databases (in our case, we used MySQL). I will go on in Years 3 and 4 with languages like C++, C#, Java, and Python, which I already know a lot of (for the last of the mentioned).

Even outside of school, my love for programming grew even more. I would consider two girls from my class, Kinga and Maya, my closest friends (Maya even closer than Kinga). To showcase my programming as a hobby, I am present on GitHub, Replit, and CodePen.

Just like one of the userboxes says, I like playing chess. I am present on both Chess.com and Lichess.

Pokémon TCG

The Pokémon TCG became my main thing to do all of a sudden. It started after Obsidian Flames was released. I also took the interest in past sets, and participating in the Gdańsk Regionals in 2023. I might have not done well there, but I certainly had fun, and that's what mattered.

Here is a breakdown of what I would consider the best cards I pulled each year.

2023

2024

My opinions

  • The Expanded format should have more recognition by TPCI, with more premier events featuring that format. I'd also like for things to be kept fresh with new bans, such as for Garchomp & Giratina-GX.
  • I like the multi-prize Pokémon that are illustrated by more traditional artists like Mitsuhiro Arita, kawayoo, or Nisota Niso, rather than 3D artists. I visit sites like PkmnCards.com often, where the preference is digital renders of cards from HeartGold & SoulSilver onward, and these 2D artists make the cards look good even without holo effects.

My Bulbapedia work

If you are from the staff, don't just ignore my messages on talk pages. Everyone deserves to be noticed. I do a lot of work with templates, so they can be the best - like no one ever was! Despite his utmost effort to never talk before big changes, I appreciate all other aspects of Team Rocket Grunt's work to make good templates. I also admire Oneofthosedf's efforts to merge the TM and Move Tutor availability templates for move pages because right now, these tables take too much space.

I also admire the efforts of Lakelimbo (or just Lake). The Bulbapedia UI/UX needs to be updated to modern Web standards. I don't want Bulbapedia to look half made by TTEchidna despite him actually doing that. (Except the roundiness of everything at least) Update: I'm happy that Lake is now a staff member!

As for myself, I don't really have a specific field of speciality, but most of my edits are to pages about Pokémon and the TCG. I also quite often edit move/Ability/item pages, and contribute to Project GlitchDex. A large part of my edits is just adding new information, removing unnecessary information, and correcting mistakes.

My desires

  • Change the {{roundy}} templates to make sure there are no vendor-prefixed properties. They're now completely unnecessary.
  • Add 5px, 15px and 20px border radius classes to MediaWiki:Common.css.
  • Get these extensions:
    • Cargo - move pages are, for now, really tedious to update. Even though Archaic declared he wanted Wikibase instead to facilitate creating of new EP wikis...
    • Editcount - possibly bring back the top contributors list? still useful, even though we value quality of edits over quantity.
    • HotCat - Although Bulbapedia mainly categorizes pages through templates, this extension could come VERY useful. (This is not an extension, but this can be implemented as a gadget.)
    • Scribunto - this could potentially relieve server load in MANY cases. And this would finally teach me how to use Lua. I already know Lua well, and no, it's instead used to make templates much less complex. Already present, but disabled due to infrastructural issues.
    • Echo and Thanks
  • Introduce a user rank between autoconfirmed users and Retired Staff, like Wikipedia's extended confirmed users.
  • Mainspace many of my drafts, both articles and templates.

And my greatest desire of all: do many things I had to overdue due to me not being in the staff! It's bad that they now rarely look at pages needing attention right now. It's like authorities in the real world not doing anything, with it only to be done by unbiased people. I get it now, real life and everything.

Useful tips for wiki editing

  • Do you want to view names of system messages instead of system messages themselves?
    • If the URL has "index.php" after the slash character (/), append "&uselang=qqx".
    • Otherwise, append "?uselang=qqx".
  • If you work a lot with templates, use this site to check if the number of braces is correct!
  • Use PowerToys' Quick Accent utility or WinCompose to easier type in accented characters while using your native keyboard layout that you're accustomed to. Personally, I use WinCompose, and

Pokémon Omega Ruby - Professor Oak's Challenge

This Professor Oak's Challenge in Pokémon Omega Ruby is a series of streams I do on Twitch. I then upload their replays on YouTube, 1 day after the stream.

After episode 7, I stopped streaming due to a poll on my Discord server whether to stream on YouTube or to continue doing so on Twitch. Streaming on YouTube won the poll.
