Here's what I ~~did~~ on this Wiki~~. (And the only thing I ever blanked was viagra spam.)~~:

Here's what I've done on this Wiki:

I combined two pages with a lot of redundant info (Artists, and Bands, combined to new page, "LISTEN.")

--I combined two pages with a lot of redundant info (Artists, and Bands, combined to new page, "LISTEN.")

First I discussed it with Kite, Mike, Tyler. they OKed it.

Plus found all the long-dead links on those pages and deleted dead links, put on the talk page what I deleted, then found working Listen links for artists when I could.

That took about 2 weeks of about 3 hours a day.

I spent an afternoon putting this up, and formatting it all, and adding the links. Kite suggested I do that.

And I wrote a few short tutorials on doing specific things in Scala.

~~And~~ wrote the suggested Conduct page they're freaking out about. Wrote that after discussions with Stephen Weigel, Kite, and Tae. Talked a lot about it with Mike B. and Tyler. Mike B was cool with it, Tyler, gave me a lot of push back, but I did it anyway, so people could see what I was talking about rather than sending bits here and there as PMs.

Added my music and my VSTs to the Listen and VST page.

That's pretty much it, that I recall. Certainly nothing destructive.

Other than that, just helped the community when possible. Put together a compilation album, made some free xen VSTs, and answered a lot of questions from ~~Noobs~~ on the Xen Alliance, and Microtonality Facebook pages.
