Djavin Novienta

Djavin Novienta is a Wiki Curator and Orientation Officer, a Teacher for EVE University, 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

It is my job as a Wiki Curator to make sure that the UniWiki is as accurate, comprehensive, and easy-to-use 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. 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.

Orientation Officer

Orientation Officers have the role 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 most students. 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 the Uni operates, how to find your place in the Uni, or anything 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.

About Me

I started playing Eve back in 2011. 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. Someday, I hope to become CEO of Eve University and to have a seat on the CSM.

To Do

Ships

• Re-classify/label rookie ships as corvettes:
  • Impairor
  • Velator
  • Ibis
  • Reaper
• Reference EVE client for Transport Ships description formatting.

Modules and Fitting

• Paladin/Fittings - Currently only one fitting (geared toward missions). Find fitting for C5 wormholes.

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

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.

Core Game Mechanics

• NeoCom - Revise "Main Eve Menu" section. Obtain/add current pictures of NeoCom menu to replace old/inaccurate pictures that have been removed.
• Loyalty Points - Revise "Skillbooks from Loyalty Point Stores" section to match with rest of article.

General cleanup

• obsolete links to EVElopedia

Done

• Paladin (base page only, fittings need to be reviewed)

Created

• Blood Hideout
• The Rewards of Devotion
• Frentex
• Blood Hideaway
