Cobold
From Userpedia
“Unfortunately, words like 'unfortunately' are unfortunate in an article.”
—Cobold
Cobold is a Sysop (4 September, 2007) and former Bureaucrat (26 January, 2008–1 December, 2008) of the Mario Wiki. Until he was promoted to Patroller (13 June, 2007–4 September, 2007), many ignored and underestimated him, but he is now seen by many as the embodiment of authority in the wiki. After Xzelion retired, Cobold was made the fifth Bureaucrat of the Super Mario Wiki, along with RAP. He seems to be on good terms with Black Hole Sun.
History
Cobold found the mariowiki through a through link from Wikipedia. He had previous experience with mediawiki and wiki syntax so he quickly created an account (17:22, 22 January 2007). He edited many articles and was soon promoted to patroller by Wayoshi (16:18, 12 June 2007). Four months later, Xzelion promoted him to sysop (11:13, 3 September 2007) and finally (another four months later) he was promoted to bureaucrat by the creator of the mariowiki himself, Porplemontage! (17:12, 25 January 2008) and he retained those powers for a whole year. All good things must come to an end and that was the case with Cobold, at first it was just a loss of the bureaucrat rank (Porplemontage, 22:13, 1 December 2008) but then he lost it all as he sank into the deep pit of inactivity (Stooben Rooben, 20:48, 11 May 2009). Then, two months later, Cobold returned to the mariowiki and was reinstated as a sysop by KPH2293 (15:48, 2 June 2009).
Appearances
It Began With a Dream
Cobold was a main character in Marioguy1's story It Began With a Dream. In it he was put in command of the mariowiki user's base after RAP disappeared and he was attacked by Maria Thalia after he went into hiding in his room. Twentytwofiftyseven and Stooben Rooben tried to protect him but Maria defeated them both sending 2257 off to another dimension. 2257's defeat sparked something in Cobold so Cobold opened up a portal to Trollsboro and it sucked in him and Maria. There is no known record of him getting back.
