Congratulations Vacant0, you are awarded the Imperial Triple Crown Jewels for your ongoing contributions to Wikipedia. Your hard work is appreciated. Damien Linnane (talk) 05:22, 1 February 2025 (UTC)


Hello and welcome to my user page! I go by Vacant0 or Vacant (they/them) online. You'll usually see me in areas related to content assessment, though from time to time I jump in other areas of Wikipedia. I write and review Good Articles, Featured Articles, and Did you know nominations. I also coordinated the July 2024, October 2024, and May 2025 GAN backlog drives. I am a mentor to new GAN reviewers and the coordinator of the Good Article Gazette newsletter. You'll also see me at In the news and Articles for deletion. If you have anything to ask me, you can do it on my talk page or via email.

My interests initially solely relied on improving articles related to politics, elections, and referendums. Most of my biggest achievements are related to Serbian elections, referendums, parties, coalitions, events, and politicians. I've also worked on a couple of non-Serbian elections. Over time, I wanted to leave my comfort zone, so I've started editing in areas related to video games, technology, photography, and food. I've improved several Windows articles to GA status and I'm interested in areas related to cakes, indie games, Portal-related, and 2000s games articles. My goal is to get familiar with more topics and aspects of Wikipedia. I also started mentoring and helping new users on Wikipedia. If you have any Wikipedia recommendations, hit me up! I am a member of WikiProject Serbia, Yugoslavia, Elections and Referendums, Politics, Socialism, Video games, and Photography.
