Vami_IV joined Wikipedia in November 2014 and soon became a prolific editor across a wide variety of topics, including buildings, wildfires, video games, and the history of Europe, Texas, and Latin America. In total, he brought ten articles to [[WP:FA|featured status]], including two worthy of the [[WP:4|Four Award]], and had nominated two more at [[WP:FAC]] at the time of his passing; he also brought numerous articles to A or GA-class, including a year-long project on [[Simón Bolívar]]. Vami often collaborated in these efforts with other editors; he was active at both [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history|WikiProject Military history]], at which he was a coordinator between 2021 and 2023, and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red|WikiProject Women in Red]], for which he created 167 articles on primarily Latin American women. He also contributed extensively to [[WP:CCI]] and was active at the [[WP:DISCORD|Wikimedia Discord]], where he was unfailingly witty and generous with his time, especially with newer editors.

Vami [[Special:Diff/1207764632|becamepassed an heroaway]] as a result of suicide on February 13, 2024, at the age of 24. He will be remembered for his editing talents, his personality, and his dedication to the project, exemplified by his [[User:Vami IV/Completionism|philosophy of Completionism]]:

'''"As a [[WP:EDITOR|Wikipedia editor]], [[WP:HERE|I understand]] that [[WP:GAN|my goal]] is [[WP:FAC|the destruction]] of [[WP:PURPOSE|my purpose]]."'''
