• Creating, among other pages:
  • Garfield: His 9 Lives
  • The Twelve Tasks of Asterix
  • Turning the redirect T-1000 into a page
  • James Bond (film series) (current GA) and List of James Bond films (as that article was too big, became a FL)
  • Production of Watchmen (film) - Watchmen (film) was too big for its own sake! - which I turned into a GA
  • Skyfall (Adele song) - DYK, GA
  • Technologies in 2001: A Space Odyssey - 2001 was also too big, over 190 KB long! (DYK)
  • Predatoroonops (DYK)
  • Fred Baron (producer) (DYK)
  • Foo Fighters live performances
• Template:Sonic, and Template:Sonic games

• Turning the Metroid series into a Good Topic - both GT nomination and extensive work - even if it's currently demoted until I break out of laziness to improve Metroid Prime: Federation Force and Metroid Dread:
  • Taking Metroid Prime, which wasn't a big deal before my first edit. Editing it at least 73 times, creating whole sections, reworking info already there. Doing all the path to improve - Wikiproject assessment, GA nomination and pass, Peer review, one, no, two failed FACs. And then not being bold enough to re-re-renominate (was waiting some time to do it), and being surpassed by someone, and not being informed on candidacy being closed. But despite this final bureaucracy... turning Metroid Prime into a Featured Article!
  • Turning the rest of the Prime trilogy into FAs as well, though not as the primary editor - that honor is from User:Gary King. 24 edits on Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (some really crucial, and also fixing of the GAN requests and most of the FAC ones); Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, only 9... but doing "reception", requesting a WP:VG assessment and the first GA nomination must be enough.
  • And while we're in the Trilogy, helped Metroid Prime: Trilogy become a Good Article.
  • Improved List of Metroid media from "simple (and rehashed) game list" to "Featured list".
  • Upgrading Metroid: Other M to GA status... despite the fact that I don't even own a Wii.
  • Helping a lot with Metroid Fusion and Metroid (video game).
  • Minor work: Metroid II: Return of Samus [1] [2], Metroid: Zero Mission,[3], Metroid Prime Hunters, [4] [5] and Metroid Prime Pinball.[6][7]
• Not game-related: many things in Samus Aran, most crucial being GA and GAR requests.

Editing pages about this womanizing fictional Brit somehow even made people interested in interviewing me.

• Taking the well-crafted The World Is Not Enough (song), nominating for the GA, doing all requested in the review in order to pass, and when I wasn't bold enough to nom for the FA, fixed most of the FAC requests. And the article is now featured.
• Turning You Know My Name from this to a GA.
• With help of my Bond collection (QoS, Skyfall and Spectre have since been added), turning the James Bond films into a Good Topic:
  • Improving/nominating for the GA Thunderball (film), Diamonds Are Forever (film), You Only Live Twice (film), Live and Let Die (film), Spectre (2015 film) (the last one, even after the topic demotion)
  • Expanding many sections (mostly Production) in From Russia with Love (film), GoldenEye, and Tomorrow Never Dies
  • Overcame the awfulness of Moonraker (film) to replace dead links and expand/clean where needed
  • Adding/replacing refs in The Spy Who Loved Me (film)
  • Ever since User:Schrodinger's cat is alive decided to push Dr. No (film) back to Good status, helping him on making the 007 Good Topic possible: after Dr. No, restoring Goldfinger (film) to the GA, and then improving On Her Majesty's Secret Service (film), The Man with the Golden Gun (film), For Your Eyes Only (film), Licence to Kill and (despite only seeing it later) Never Say Never Again (plus minor work in Casino Royale (Climax!), just in case someone asks for it...)

• Pushing to the FA both Nirvana (PR, FAC... and then helping User:WesleyDodds on retaining that star) and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (FAC)
• A few Featured and Good Topic nominations just to bring some topics to attention - FF8, Almost There (and some currently demoted) - or to ensure that they a restoration - Confessions on a Dance Floor, Jupiter, Dwarf planets, Asteroid belt, , Celebration (Madonna album).
• Restoring the featured status of Jaws (film)
• Turned the Pirates of the Caribbean series into a Good Topic: nominated the first three movies to the GA, then improved the series' article to make it pass as well. Then came a GT nom... and 3 years later, pushing the fourth movie to GA level. And then it got demoted because I couldn't improve the fifth movie's article in time, but someone else did it and it's still a GT!
• Helped User:Nergaal to turn List of Metallica concert tours into a featured list (though he didn't warn me on the nom that ended up passing...)
• Taking over User:-5-'s work with the Pearl Jam studio albums - in order, Pearl Jam (album), Binaural (album), Yield (album), Riot Act (album), No Code and Backspacer. Now we have a Good Topic... even if almost fell before I made Lightning Bolt (Pearl Jam album) a GA as well, until it finally fell as I was too lazy to improve Gigaton, need to go for it some time.

• Aladdin (film), which wasn't a big deal, I made most improvements and lead it to GA status (well, it was demoted once, but why would I let this stop me?).
• The Jungle Book (1967 film), which I improved a lot but wound up not doing the Good Article nom.
• Restoring the Good Status of Jurassic Park (film), The Lion King and X-Men: The Last Stand

• Drive-by nominations
  • Pierce Brosnan
  • Return of the Jedi
• Nominated for GA after some edits, helped with the GA review stuff and later on:

• Helped pass the GA review:
  • The Truman Show
  • Superman Returns
  • War of the Worlds (2005 film)
  • The Phantom of the Opera (2004 film)
  • Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
  • 2001: A Space Odyssey
  • Captain America: The Winter Soldier

• Black Ice (album), which was big but lacking in quality... and which I developed to Good status (and maybe Featured in the future, considering the amount of work in order to pass)
  • While on AC/DC, improving Cliff Williams to GA level.
• I'm in the process of making a Foo Fighters studio albums topic, even if it means going through Featured List procedures (only The Colour and the Shape wasn't my work):

The X-Files

While my biggest contribution was getting an editor to the TXF project, had a hand in building this huge list:

  • Montreal Canadiens and Houston Rockets (a former featured and good article, respectively)
  • Brazil v Germany (2014 FIFA World Cup) (in hindsight, FIFA not allowing me to buy tickets for this game - only Belgium-Algeria - was a blessing in disguise)
