===[[Wiki_Department|UniWiki Manager]]===
===[[Wiki_Department|Manager (Wiki)]]===


Rayanth accepted the position of UniWiki Manager in June of 2019. His primary responsibility has been preparing the UniWiki for a software upgrade, which involves rebuilding the Wiki Skin used by the UniWiki, and thoroughly testing the effects of the software upgrades on each of the components of the wiki in general. During this testing, he has also identified a number of new extensions and features to be added in the future, and begun to develop other tools and methods to improve the UniWiki experience overall. The UniWiki Manager also oversees a small team of Curators, who each provide ideas for improvement as well as maintain various aspects of the Wiki in which they have self-identified specializations. If you are interested in becoming a Wiki Curator and helping out - whether you're a member of EVE University or not - please read more on the [[Wiki Department]] page.

===Dragon Hunter===
In the spring of 2019, as part of the EVE University Anniversary Week, the wormhole system that the WHC called home was being harassed by a "large beast" complaining in local chat about the amount of litter and detritus left behind by their operations. As the complaints grew louder and more threatening, WHC called for assistance, and a large fleet of EVE University capsuleers answered the call. Arriving in a fast-travel [[Atron]] and expecting to switch to a [[Talos]] he had previously stationed at the Wormhole Campus, Rayanth volunteered as a Scout instead, intending to help hunt down the beast. By a stroke of luck, Rayanth managed to warp directly to the location of the target (a Carrier), landed tackle and called for fleet backup. Miraculously, through the battle that ensued (which included an unknown fleet arriving and taking part against both sides), Rayanth's [[Atron]] managed to not only survive, but maintain the warp-scramble on the Carrier the entire fight. He was rewarded with the vanity title of 'Dragon Hunter' to honor this accomplishment.

===Manages Who (?)===


During a meeting attended by all EVE University managers, during a segment where the roles and responsibilites of various officers and staff was being discussed, Rayanth joked that he had no staff to worry about. This led to a discussion on whether the UniWiki Curators were considered staff (and/or officers), and Rayanth doubling down on whether he had any staff to manage at all, or merely volunteers recognized for their significant contributions to the UniWiki. This title was secretively bestowed upon him as a result of this discussion, playing on the joke that he did not even know who he was supposed to be managing. (EVE Online does not permit the question mark in Titles in-game, but its intent is clearly implied)
