I've been lurking around the Zelda community since around the year 2000. I officially "entered the community" with my own website in June of 2002 - The Temple of Time. I continued operating that site on and off until January of 2009. The website, now known as Zelda Relic, is on extended hiatus (which is a fancy way of saying it probably isn't coming back, but if it does you're looking at years from now). I have since joined the Zelda Dungeon staff. I am currently working on Link's Awakening content.
My name is Joshua. I am the all-seeing guardian defender of the Zelda community. For over a decade, I have been a constant presence, behind the scenes, watching over this precious community. When conflict arose, I put an end to it. When collaboration began, I promoted it. I arrived at the beginning and will be here to the very end. I am The Watcher.
My activity with Zelda Wiki goes back to 2006 when the project first became a community project instead of a Zelda Universe project. I was the first small site webmaster to ask to participate. While I am not always the most active member, the Wiki continues to be a project I fully support behind the scenes. As one of the "bureaucrats" I am involved in a lot of the decision making that goes on.

Outside of the Wiki, I am currently somewhat difficult to find. Unfortunately, I don't have as much free time for forum lurking as I did as a teenager. The only forum I am currently active on is the Zelda Dungeon forum. In the past, I was a very active member of The Sacred Realm's community and I post on Zelda Universe and other sites from time to time. Recently, I've become a frequent commenter on some sites - particularly Zelda Informer.
Within the community, I am good friends with Jason, Mases, and Lysia. I do my best to maintain friendly relations with all of the other members of the community I come in contact with. In the past, relations between the various Zelda websites were very rough outside of affiliation. Fortunately, while they aren't superb even now, they are at a point where community projects are now a possibility. When it comes to choosing sides on a Zelda related issue, I'm usually the one trying to work out a compromise rather than choose a side.
But seriously, I love The Legend of Zelda, and I love this community. <br/><br/>

===My History in the Zelda Community===
Outside the Zelda community, I'm a video game collector and Warcraft encyclopedia. As for professions, I am currently a graphic artist working for a signage company. Considering how I operated a website for several years, it should be no surprise that I am also a fan of web design. Aside from Zelda, I'm a big fan of fighting games (my current favorites are Smash Bros. Brawl and BlazBlue), World of Warcraft, MOTHER/Earthbound, and Ogre Battle.

I've not done a great job of becoming involved in many projects, though I do have a few I tend to favor while editing the Wiki. The Bombers and the side-quests related to them are some of my favorite parts of Majora's Mask. I still watch, edit, and plan to work on the pages related to the Bombers' Notebook.
Outside of that, most of my edits are regarding A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening.
* Former article writer for Zelda Universe.
You will also find that many of my edits are minor edits on random pages. In other words, I love hitting the "Random Page" link and then finding something wrong with the article it gives me.
