Hi, I'm Emma. I help run this wiki. I'm a coder, first and foremost. I know the ins and outs of the Media Wiki interface and know how to work the wiki syntax. I maintain this wiki's coding, scripts, interface, templates, etc. I'm generally a good source of editing advice.
I have a long history of editing wikis. I've moved around a bit. And now I'm here. I've always been a good coder. It's where I'm best suited. I'm not a spectacular article editor. But you'll see me making a number of minor edits to articles fixings errors, spelling problems, issues with conforming to standards, etc. When not dealing with a technical issue, I'm usually doing something with one of my long-term projects or supporting the wiki behind the scenes by trying to get others involved. I also handle any rule breaking. I'm generally a friendly girl and will usually give the benefit of the doubt. But don't cross the line, I will not look the other way for serious issues.
If you have any questions for me you can message me on my talk page. Please remember to sign your posts with ~~~~ and to keep all discussion on the same page they start on — do not go to another user's talk page to reply to a post they made on your own, or anywhere else. If you see a problem anywhere, let me know and I'll deal with it as soon as I'm able. And there's no need to notify me that you responded to me on any discussion page. Trust me, I'll notice if you have. If I don't reply, please don't take it personally. I'm not always able to and don't always have an answer. If you need to speak more privately, you can add me on Skype or Discord or email me through the wiki.
I hope I can help improve your overall experience with the Zelda Dungeon Wiki. Thanks for reading! — Emma (Talk)

Here's just some links I think I'd commonly need in managing the wiki:
- Special:Gadgets — List of all the wiki's gadgets with links to their pages.
- MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition — Manage the wiki gadgets and edit their settings.
- Script pages:
- MediaWiki:Common.js — To enter scripts that work for the whole wiki.
- MediaWiki:Common.css — Global CSS to apply to the whole wiki that should be enabled at all times and not placed in a gadget. Go here to add/remove admins and patrollers to color their names as ranks change.
- Special:AllMessages — Editing the wiki interface.
- Special:ExpandTemplates — Useful tool for code debugging.
- Special:ReplaceText — For making batch text replacements to many pages. Only use for relatively small groups. For large replaces, either get Scrapper to do it, or temporarily change your rank to include the bot group then change it back when the replacement is complete.
- MediaWiki:Sidebar — For making changes to the sidebar.
- MediaWiki:Sitenotice — Edit this to make a site notice. Leave one character or less to disable the site notice.
- MediaWiki:Sitenotice id — Increase the number on here by one every time you make a brand new site notice, if you don't, then people who dismissed the previous notice won't be able to see the new one.

Projects
This is just a bunch of notes for myself to remember the various long-term projects I am working on. Some might never get solved or might take forever, hence the need for notes.
Tabs
- Fix the ugly vector tabs with a better color scheme.
Help
- Figure out just exactly what help pages we need expanded.
Quotes
- Figure out how best to present character quotes in the most efficient and accessible way possible.
Damage
- Finish the enemy damage project, preferably with some kind of infobox integration if possible.
Slideshows
- Get the side buttons to function properly from image to image.
- Get images to roll over to the beginning when at the end.
- Find a good way to format captions.
- Add an option to have a link to the image page.
ZD Staff Page
- Work on a way to efficiently have staff members provide information to be used on their ZD staff entry automatically transcluded from their userpage.
