Party at the Two Whales diner by Afterlaughs - inspired by a scene from Tamen De Gushi (or Their Stories) web comic by Tan Jiu.

LiS "detective" at your service. :)
I really enjoy exploring the hidden details and obscure references within Life is Strange: Season 1 (and now Season 2). Other times, I'm spotting (often accidentally) similarities and inconsistencies. I suppose that, even though I discovered the game quite "late", it's nice to be finding some interesting things for the long-time fans.
When I'm not adding stuff to the LiS wiki, I'm probably playing LiS to find even more stuff for the wiki! Haha!
I guess my contributions will be mostly Season 1 contributions until I stop finding stuff in that game! :)
Discovered LiS (Season 1): 15th December 2016 (Thanks, Afterlaughs!)

Quick Editing Guide
Just some commonly used 'source mode' code that I've put together from my own frequent edits. I thought it might also be useful to any new editors to the wiki. (Any file names or any weblinks mentioned in the text are simply used as examples.)
Headers
Main header:
== Header ==
Sub-header:
=== Sub-header ===
Sub-sub-header:
==== Sub-sub-header ====
General
To create a line break:
<br> ... Or... <br/>
To make text small:
<small>(cutscene)</small><br \>
To bring text into alignment (i.e. indent):
:
(A single colon at the start of the lie.)
To temporarily hide some text:
<!--
- written at the start of the text.
-->
- written at the end of the text.
Notes and References
To add a Notes section:
== Notes == <references group="note"/>
Creating notes to appear in the Notes section:
<ref group="note"> </ref>
To add a References section:
== References == <references />
To make the References section's content smaller:
== References == <small>{{Reflist}}</small> Or... == References == <references /> * <small>https://tcrf.net/Life_is_Strange </small> * <small>https://instaud.io/search?q=LiS_VO </small> * <small>https://www.reddit.com/r/lifeisstrangeleaks/comments/3qni1e/ep5_spoilers_release_life_is_strange_complete/ </small>
Creating references to appear in the References section:
<ref> </ref>
Combining under the same reference:
<ref name=":0"> </ref> Then the next reference tags should be: <ref name=":0" />
Pictures and Galleries
Inserting Thumbnail pictures:
[[File: chloe-shocked.png|thumb|left|250px]] [[File: old-phone-bts.png|thumb|184x184px]]
(Note: These are just examples of size; the px size can be adjusted to suit layout.)
Nicely centered Image Gallery:
<gallery bordersize="none" bordercolor="transparent" hideaddbutton="true" widths="200" captionalign="center" position="center"> afterlaughs-two-whales.jpg afterlaughs-sunlight.jpg afterlaughs-balcony.jpg|Commission piece. afterlaughs-present.jpg|Life Is Strange Fans Christmas Multimedia Contest 2016 - 2D Fan Art Winner. </gallery>
(Note: The | is used to add a title or description of the image.)
Slideshow gallery:
<gallery mode="slideshow" type="slideshow"> (images) </gallery> Or centred: <gallery position=center mode="slideshow" type="slideshow" hideaddbutton="true"> Max concept art.jpg Life-is-strange-02 1920.jpg Life-is-strange-01 1920.jpg Basement.jpg </gallery>
Linking to a picture/media:
[[Media: david-concealedgunlicense.png|Concealed Gun License]]
Audio
Adding headphones image with Audio:
EXTERNAL LINK: [[File:Headphones.png|16px|link=https://instaud.io/1fcX]] INTERNAL wiki-hosted template: {{Headphones|file=filename}} Example: {{Headphones|file=Cue_E3_8A_Kitchen_FocusPicture_Max_100.ogg}}
Jumping directly to a header on a page:
Example: [[#Sophomore Issue]] Context: (See [[#Sophomore Issue]].)
Quotes
To create an inset quote on the next line:
<blockquote>"I need proof that bottles were out to get me, just in case..."</blockquote>
(Note: Quotes can also be formatted to bold or italics like any normal text.)
Inserting Quotes:
Example 1: {{Quote|Are you cereal?|Max}} Example 2: {{Quote|Everything is a picture waiting to be taken... |Max's Diary, September 3}}
Printed matter (e.g. Newspaper articles) quote style:
{{Bigquote |''' <Article header text, if one if present - bold text.> ''' <subheader or author name comes next - plain text> <main body of text goes here> }}
Video Approval Ratio
To calculate the "Approval" ratio % for YouTube Playthrough videos:
Likes divided by Likes + Dislikes = Approval percentage.
Extra Tabbers (Notes Pages)
To add a multiple "Read" tabs on the Notes pages:
|-|Read={{#tag:tabber|Page 1=[[File:Note-lis2-ep1-brodynote2.png|220px]] {{!}}-{{!}}Page 2=[[File:Note-lis2-ep1-brodynote3.png|220px]]}}</tabber>

Administration Tasks / Personal Reminders
Just a list of pages I intend to check periodically for administration duties.
- Broken redirects
- Double redirects (to also check My Tools > What Links Here)
- Uncategorized pages
- Dead end pages - pages without links to other pages from them.
- Lonely pages - pages without links to them from other pages *sniff*.
- "Unused" stuff - either use (include) it somewhere or delete:
- Unused categories
- Unused files - careful about deletions as externally linked images and wiki-hosted audio also display here.
- Unused templates
- Unused videos
- "Wanted" - pages for which there are links but no pages with these names exist, i.e the links to them are all red.
