From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have nothing to say (mostly).

I primarily specialize in pages relating to the Vegas Golden Knights prospect system (and others), having created Brayden Pachal, Kaedan Korczak, Isaiah Saville, Jiri Patera, Lukas Cormier, Layton Ahac, Mikael Hakkarainen, and Matt Murray, while having significantly updated Logan Thompson and Zach Dean. I also significantly contributed to Vegas Golden Knights, Thompson, Johnny Gaudreau, and History of the National Hockey League (2017–present) achieving Good Article status, as well as List of Vegas Golden Knights draft picks, List of Vegas Golden Knights players, and List of Vegas Golden Knights seasons achieving Featured List status, and created the NHL All-Decade team article.

I'm also the founder, leader, and sole member of WikiProject Ice Hockey's Vegas Golden Knights task force.

To-do

Completed tasks
  • Fill in the blanks of Lukas Cormier, which skips from the QMJHL finals to his NHL debut.
  • Expand Jonas Røndbjerg, which currently doesn't even mention his debut that came two seasons ago.
  • Expand the college section of Mason Morelli, which barely covers anything after his freshman year. Maybe even take it to GA.
  • Update Patrick Roy with info from his 2018–2023 Remparts stint, which is currently entirely unmentioned on his page.
  • Update prior VGK season articles with summaries, transactions (19/20 and 20/21), etc.
  • Create Turkmenistan men's national under-18 ice hockey team
  • Update LT and VGK articles.

Longer-term

[edit]
  • Get VGK season articles to GA
  • Get VGK lists to FL
  • Get VGK article itself to FA
  • Take Mark Stone to GA

I am truly shocked on how you didn't have this. Anyways, you 100% deserve it after all the work you've put into Hockey Wikipedia! Congratulations!. 45BearsFan (talk) 18:35, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
The Vegas Golden Knights Barnstar
@The Kip, this is for you! From day one of being on Wikipedia, I have noticed your love for ice hockey—and for the Golden Knights. You've gotten Logan Thompson to GA, the Golden Knights themselves to GA, and created many articles about their prospects. The Kip, you were one of the editors who inspired me to edit Wikipedia, and because of that, I bestow upon you this specially made barnstar! XR228 (talk) 01:49, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
