Solar Dragon started off working on | Solar Dragon started off working on [[wiki]]s on the [[Top Trumps Wiki]], which was originally founded on [[Editthis.info]], in [[:Category:FoundedIn2007|2007]]. After that wiki was merged into [[:Category:Wikia|Wikia]], Solar Dragon started working on wikis there, eventually finding his way to [[Simpsons Wiki]]. He became an [[Sysop|admin]] on around 13 Wikia wikis, most of which he was active on. He became an admin on Wikisimpsons in [[:Category:FoundedIn2010|2010]], after only a couple of months of actively editing. | ||

Wikia's staff later removed his admin rights, in fear that he might harm the wiki, and later [[block]]ed him for protesting against this. He then founded the new Wikisimpsons on [[:Category:ShoutWiki|ShoutWiki]] and the wiki was moved there, with most of the active community moving along with him. | ||
