User:Djavin novienta

Djavin Novienta is a Wiki Curator, Orientation Officer, and Reimbursement Officer; a Teacher specializing in PvE and Amarr ships; and the Cariest of Bears.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the game or EVE University, if there is a class you'd like to see offered, if there is a wiki article that needs editing, or just to say hello. I can usually be found in the Student Lounge on Mumble, but you can also contact me in-game via Evemail or on Slack, if you have access.

About My Roles

Wiki Curator

Wiki Curators work to ensure that the UniWiki is as accurate, comprehensive, and easy-to-use as possible. The UniWiki is EVE University's service to the greater Eve community, and so Wiki Curators strive to increase the value of that service as much as possible. I both write new articles and edit existing ones. My particular areas of expertise are Amarr ships, missioning, combat summaries, and general editing/revising. I am also the author of the UniWiki Manual of Style.

Orientation Officer

Orientation Officers have the responsibility of introducing new members to EVE University once they have been accepted. Where Personnel Officers are the intake specialists of the University, Orientation Officers serve as the face of EVE University to students once they've been accepted. We reach out to new members to ensure that they are settling in smoothly, and to provide them with relevant information. We also act as a contact point for a members' first few weeks in the corporation, to answer any questions and point them in the right direction. If you have questions about how EVE University operates, how to find your place in the Uni, or anything else Uni-related, you can contact me or another Orientation Officer. We're here to help.

Teacher

Teachers at EVE University, like all other Uni staff, are volunteers who give of their time to educate both Uni members and non-members. All of our classes are open to the general EVE community, and our class calendar is also publicly viewable. If there is a class that you would like to see offered, we encourage you to request it in the Class Request thread on our forums. Do keep in mind that, because all of our teachers are volunteers, there may not be a teacher with the relevant experience to give a particular class right away, but we do our best to accommodate class requests, so as to provide the best educational experience possible.

Reimbursement Officer

Reimbursement Officers administrate EVE University's Ship Replacement Program, and process reimbursement requests submitted by unistas. Most Reimbursement Officers (like me) deal only with T1 hull replacement. Advanced ship replacement is generally handled by Campus Reimbursement Officers. Ship replacement is offered at Highsec Campus, Lowsec Campus, and Nullsec Campus.

About Me

I started playing EVE back in 2011, and quickly found a place in Bishop Intergalactic Ventures, a member of the now-defunct Grim Enterprises. I played for about 2 years, then took a long break, and returned to EVE in the fall of 2016. Because almost none of my friends from years before still played, and because so much of the game had changed, I chose to join EVE University, and have decided to stay indefinitely. As long-term goals, I hope to become CEO of EVE University and to have a seat on the CSM.

The Cariest of Bears

I dislike PvP and avoid it at all costs. Most of my "gameplay" involves fulfilling my duties as an Orientation Officer or Wiki Curator, and I embrace this wholeheartedly. I have a particular problem with nullsec culture, and Eve "bittervet" culture as a whole, and I am a staunch advocate of learning and living primarily in highsec. That said, I will never discourage a new player from pursuing their fortune where it can best be found.

To Do

If you see something on here that you would like to work on, please feel free to do so. Not everything on my to-do list is something I'm capable of fixing at the time I add it to the list, so assistance is always appreciated!

Ships

• Create sub-pages for all categories of Industrials
• Create some way of identifying now-defunct ships (like Vherokior Probe) that no longer exist in the game.

Modules and Fitting

• Paladin/Fittings - Currently only one fitting (geared toward missions). Find fitting for C5 wormholes.
• Add sample Incursion fit to Nightmare/Fittings

Module Stats Tables

• Templates to control the formatting of
  • Item tables
  • Item tooltips
• External website to output code (but leave formatting up to the MediaWiki templates)
  • Website also outputs a comment to tell users where to find the code generator, and a unique string to allow them to replicate the same output, but with updated parameter values

Exploration & Scanning

• Verify accuracy of information in Jovian space, then revise.
• Add general description of difficulty levels of Category:Cosmic Anomalies found in wormholes, with new subheading

Missions & PvE

• Add NPC/combat tables:
  • Blood Den
  • Blood Haven
  • Blood Hub
  • Blood Raider Forsaken Hub (also check name, may be "Blood Forsaken Hub")
  • Blood Raider Forsaken Rally Point (also check name, may be "Blood Forsaken Rally Point")
  • Sansha Den (also needs cleanup/improvement)
  • Sansha Forlorn Rally Point
  • Sansha Hidden Den
  • Sansha Port
  • Serpentis Den

Templates

• Template:CMBSite/Template:CMBSiteBox should be greatly simplified. They attempt to do way too much, and don't allow for customization within other articles. Just a customizable CMBSiteBox would be preferable.
• Create {{sh}} that functions similarly to {{sk}} for mentioning ships.
• Create {{PastEvent}} in the manner of the color box on Purity of the Throne to mark articles detailing previous events.
