Hee, I remember getting my butt kicked by Dark Valefor when I went back to Besaid and didn't know it'd be there. "It... it killed me in one hit?" Actually come to think about it, I have a funny feeling dark valefor countered with energy ray, killing everyone if you didn't have auto-life - which I didn't at the time. I thought I'd never be able to get that energy blast overdrive, haha. But I decided I wanted to give it a go, and with a decent strategy it was doable. (I still think dark ixion was the easiest fight, for me, although dark yojimbo is challenging it so far.) 
 
Oh god yeah, the Dark Magus Sisters just show up out of nowhere, then you're being chased... not fun! I had no idea what was going on. I only wanted to go and capture some creatures in the area for the monster arena, haha. I've done some optional bosses but I don't remember which. I remember beating the one in the Omega Ruins, though. And yes, Penance sounds like a... disheartening... battle. Still, I beat the Demi-Fiend in Digital Devil Saga which is meant to be one of the hardest superbosses in an RPG ever, so maybe I have a chance... (On the other hand, the supposedly easier superboss in Persona 3 FES kills me in a few turns.)

The resetting would drive me mad, I think, except maybe with Dark Yojimbo who barely has any health and isn't very difficult in general, it seems. But I can see the merit of it. I got some equipment with break HP limit (which I will probably never use) and some with overdrive > AP off him. I don't know if I'll use that, either, but it sounds good!

So lately I've gone completely crazy and put another 50 hours into FF10, knocking my totaltime to 150 hours. The main reason I call this being crazy is because it involves me fighting the dark aeons! 
 
I still don't think I'll be able to finish them all, but I've had a damn good try.
 
So here's my update.

What's next?

I think it would help to have a single, easy to find list of standards to look at. It's cool when you start wiki editing as your submissions are moderated, so if you do something horribly wrong, the mods will just reject it. But when you get the free ability to edit without moderation - which I think is a good feature - you don't really have anything to check your edits up against except sort of common sense things (like no plagiarising, no rotten spelling/grammar etc.). I always get a bit confused on what the policy is on plot spoilers in a plot synopsis section of a wiki page for instance, or on a character page. Do you have to warn there'll be spoilers or what? It's not consistent so it's hard to know which to go for or what people expect when they go and read an article. 
 
As for themed wiki tasks, which was mentioned earlier? Somebody asked if anybody had any ideas - well, I do: Pokemon (or more specifically, Pokemon character pages). Some of those pages make no sense, they read like they've gone through Babelfish, plus I'm not sure how relevant some of the information there is. Examples:
 
http://www.giantbomb.com/ash-ketchum/94-716/
http://www.giantbomb.com/misty/94-2215/
http://www.giantbomb.com/brock/94-5766/
 
Some pages could also do with being filled in, still on the Pokemon theme, for example:
 
http://www.giantbomb.com/dawn/94-9367/
http://www.giantbomb.com/officer-jenny/94-5765/
 
Even if it's not much, I'm sure we could find a bit more information for those pages.
 
Does that count as enough for a themed wiki task?

I'm kind of a mix of A and D, since I don't see the point in adding something even for something I'm passionate about if that info is already there; it's just overriding somebody who's said that for no reason, though I will happily do so if it's not mentioned. I normally edit if I see bad grammar. If I know a game and it has no information, I'll try and at least put something there. If I'm really passionate about that game, I will put a lot of information there. So I've gone with A, but it really is a good portion D too.

The Ash Ketchum page needs a sweep for spelling/grammar and just generally making sure it makes sense. Parts of it sound like it's gone through Babelfish right now, for example:
 
" Ash Ketchum being a character of words, was overseen as loud mouthed, surmise to assumptions, and arises to a temper of extreme offense due to little or simple points of argument."
 
And that's just one example.

I  was looking to see if a certain character page existed, and came across this person page:
 
James Gordon - there is absolutely no information there (literally it's just the "we could use some help on this page" message).  Maybe somebody who knows who this person is could fill it in a little? Right now there's nothing at all.

That kid is a potential S Link. He speaks with a comedy French accent and speaks in fanboy Japanese, which is probably what they were going for.

Nearly all my wiki edits are for older games - ones I remember playing as a very little kid. As they won't run any more and in some cases even looking elsewhere on the internet to jog your memory barely comes up with anything (there was a point a few years ago when searching for "Stay Tooned" would get you three relevant entries on Google and that was all - it's had a bit of a resurgence in recent years, though there's still not much at all) I've sometimes had to go in with bitty memories, because I figure something is better than nothing, and if another user comes along and sees an issue or can add more info then all the better for it. 
 
I think it's well worth doing when I have the time to do it, just to educate other people on old, often quite obscure games.

I was hoping this'd update itself eventually, but it's still the same I'm afraid.
