| − | [[Image:VixenWindstorm.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Vixen Windstorm in 2006]] | + | '''Vixen Windstorm''' is one of [[MansonWiki:About|MansonWiki]]'s three original administrators. He made [[Special:Permalink/1781|his first contribution]] to the website on March 19, 2007. After being promoted to administrator on May 29, 2007, he took on several roles within MansonWiki including editor-in-chief, site maintenance and social media interaction. In addition to moderating the website and its forums, Windstorm was also the first to run MansonWiki's <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.youtube.com/user/MansonWiki YouTube channel]</span> and <span class="plainlinks">[http://myspace.com/mansonwiki MySpace profile]</span>. His contributions to the wiki portion of the website span across three usernames, [[Special:Contributions/Rtiztik|Rtiztik]] (totalling 3,111 edits), [[Special:Contributions/Vixen Windstorm|Vixen Windstorm]] and GrislyGrizzly (totalling 7,760 edits). |
| | | | |
| − | '''Steven Tyler Maxim''' (born September 17, 1990), better known by his stage name '''Vixen Windstorm''', is a musician, and administrator of [[MansonWiki]]. He is a founder of the band Godsolid, although he had an involvement in other musical movements prior to founding the band.
| + | On December 22, 2009, Windstorm announced his intention to leave MansonWiki after almost three years of service, however [[User:Litso|Litso]] convinced him to maintain some involvement with the website. On September 2, 2010, Windstorm and Litso announced the end of their overall hiatus, with Windstorm becoming significantly more active following the [[Announcement|March 2011 departure of administrators [god]speed and ‡-me-‡]]. During this period, Windstorm organized the website's Facebook page and MansonWiki itself, but departed again one month later, and contributed only twice between April 2011 and March 2012. While he no longer worked for MansonWiki, he maintained good terms with Litso and ‡-me-‡. |
| | | | |
| − | ==WikiProjects==
| + | On April 10, 2012, Litso and newly promoted administrator [[User:Harlequin|Harlequin]] reached out to Windstorm to rejoin the team and he accepted, changing his username to GrislyGrizzly in the process. Two months later, Litso left the website, and in response Windstorm too resigned on June 21, 2012. Litso eventually stepped back in and carried out general maintenance for some time, however Windstorm has sparsely edited since, apart from a handful of contributions in 2014. |
| − | Vixen Windstorm is a Stage 3 Wikipediholic and is often contributing to Wikipedia and other wikis. As of May 2007 he is registered to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikipedia] <small>([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rtiztik main] & [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Rtiztik contribs])</small>, [http://www.ninwiki.com/Main_Page NinWiki] <small>([http://www.ninwiki.com/User:Rtiztik main] & [http://www.ninwiki.com/Special:Contributions/Rtiztik contribs])</small>, and '''MansonWiki''' <small>(main & [[Special:Contributions/Rtiztik|contribs]])</small>, although he is not as active in contributing to NinWiki recently. Aside from being a system operator, or administrator, providing MansonWiki with removing wikilinks from implicitly copied articles and adding touch-ups, Windstorm has created articles for intricate topics deemed unnecessary in the general Wikipedia, such as song articles and other information (similar to the tediousness of NinWiki).
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | On Wikipedia, Windstorm's contributions have been varied as he reports articles with news and sources that are fairly recent and still unmentioned (at that moment). Currently he monitors and stays fairly current with eleven articles, all involving future albums (''Avenged Sevenfold'' by Avenged Sevenfold, Cannibal Corpse's eleventh studio album, ''CexCells'' by Blaqk Audio, ''Death Rap'' by Necro, ''It's Time to See Religion Die'' by Head, ''King Mathers'' by Eminem, ''Korn Kovers'' by [[Related bands and artists#Korn|Korn]], Metallica's ninth studio album, Slipknot's fourth studio album, ''The Unquestionable Truth (Part 2)'' by Limp Bizkit, and ''Violent Acts of Beauty'' by London After Midnight). Recently he has even taken up collaborating with per request of user Goldenglove to work on an article for Marilyn Manson's official website. On May 23, 2007 the initial page was launched and can be viewed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MarilynManson.com here] (if anyone has any information regarding the website in question during 1998 and 1999, or the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MarilynManson.com#Mechanical_Animals_era ''Mechanical Animals'' era], your potential contribution to this page is appreciated). Windstorm re-formatted the page to fit MansonWiki standards, and ported it there later that afternoon.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Also similarly to updating MansonWiki with critical Marilyn Manson information, Windstorm was the administrator of a group on Facebook dedicated solely to all news regarding the then-upcoming Manson album, ''[[Eat Me, Drink Me]]''. Until closing in June 5, 2007, the group was maintained consistently with updates regarding news, photos of images and people involving the album, official lyrics, and interviews, and was up to 33 members (not an incredible statistic, but a core fanbase nonetheless). The group was viewable to anyone registered with Facebook [http://hs.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2314537832 here], although it was closed on the official world release of ''Eat Me, Drink Me''.

| + | |
| − | Aside from moderating the site for vandalism or unnecessary edits by good-faith, Windstorm is responsible for the creation and expansion of literally hundreds of pages since joining the primitive and fresh version of the site sometime around March 20, 2007. On May 29, 2007 Windstorm was granted system operator of [[MansonWiki]], initially under the username [[User:Rtiztik|Rtiztik]], and could since continue contributing to the site, more meticulous and regulated than ever before.

| − | * Vixen Windstorm and The Tank are planning to record an album of covers and an album of original tracks, with no actual recording dates given. Initially the recording sessions were supposed to be sometime during Spring or Summer 2007, but due to Tank's commitment to the Army during a summer program, the recording sessions will be on hiatus until nowhere prior to Winter 2007, or early-2008. During this time Windstorm will shift focus to recording his solo debut album ''The Harmful Effects of Falling in Love''. Windstorm has also expressed interest in possibly drafting a session keyboardist.

| + | |
| − | * By the evening of July 8, 2007, an unregistered member of Wikipedia who consistently vandalized the article for ''It's Time to See Religion Die'', an upcoming album by ex-[[Related bands and artists#Korn|Korn]] guitarist Brian Welch, had been creating topics on the article's Talk page expressing hate for the artist (Welch), and for Windstorm who had been reverting his uncivil comments. After dozens of direct insults on himself and Brian Welch, Windstorm's response was as follows:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ::"I've been deleting your comments dating even as far back as May because you clearly have nothing insightful to say here at Wikipedia. A couple of times I decided as your comments were already in the history of the page, that they might as well appear on the page [itself]; so after someone else deleted them, I added them back. Like I said, not because they were insightful, because they are not, but because they had been ultimately marked part of the page. So just to comply with your immature attitude, I've added back every one of your posts, and not like you deserve it, but I'll give you my word that I won't delete them. Instead we're going to wait for someone else to delete them, and when they do you'll see, whether you realize it or not, that your obscene comments are not welcome here."

| − | | + | |
| − | * On the night of July 12, 2007, a registered member of ''The Heirophant'' created a forum thread in regards to expressing a hate for [[Marilyn Manson]]'s current girlfriend [[Evan Rachel Wood]], citing such statements as "hating her guts" and wanting her to die. Windstorm, often one to respond to such ignorant arguments with exceedingly intricate and elaborate disapproval, the response was as follows:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ::"Leave it to an apparent emo named EmO to bitch about why [[Evan Rachel Wood|''Evan Rachel'' Wood]] is worth hating and deserves to die. She's been in some cool movies, she's a pretty good person, she looks great; so did you hate her and want her to die before you knew who she was, aka before she went out with [[Marilyn Manson|Manson]]. She was famous before that, but don't tell me you watched ''Thirteen'' or ''Pretty Persuasion'' and immediately at the end of either film found yourself saying, "God this girl should die, I hate her." Get a life, or find the maturity to not complain about a relationship that has barely been harbored yet. She lets Manson express himself, over [[Dita Von Teese|Dita]]'s thesis to make Manson "grow up". Some people don't like ''[[Eat Me, Drink Me]]'', but Manson's dead-set that it's his greatest record to date, and that I find really counts for something. I'd say that's a good start to analyzing whether or not she's good for Manson, or good at all."
