Hello ! I'm an administrator here on Pixar Wiki. I’ve been an editor since February 2011. If you have any questions about the site, feel free to leave a message on my talk page!
I am from Quebec and as such my primary language is French. My English has (hopefully) somewhat improved over the years, but it still occurs that I write some very strange or nonsensical sentences, and I apologize for this.
I’ve always been a fan of Pixar ever since I saw Finding Nemo. However, it’s only since Cars 2 that I have been really active about Pixar. I've been visiting Pixar Wiki as a simple reader since a very long time. In 2011, I created an account, and have stayed around ever since.
My favourite Pixar films are WALL•E, Cars and Finding Nemo, although all of them are great. I am a big fan of the Cars. The authenticity to real cars, especially in the first movie, is amazing. And talking cars are one of the best things there is.
On Pixar Wiki, my goal has always been to build original and accurate content, to make a database worthy in its own right (without having to copy other wikis). I dig for all the official stuff that's released like character bios or stills, and I'm particularly fond of hard-to-find tidbits. I like pages like Monsters University, Frosty, Republic of New Rearendia or Battlesaurs, pages which cover not so widely known information.
I am very interested in Easter Eggs, these little references Pixar puts in all of their films; it's certainly one of my favorite aspects of Pixar fandom. Did you know A113 appears twice in Ratatouille? Or that there is an allusion to A Bug's Life in Cars 2? It's just incredible how much stuff can be found hidden. It would definitely be awesome be to make a list of all of them, both exhaustive and accurate...
My username "Gray Catbird", is the common name of a North American bird, known like the other members of its family for its ability to imitate the songs of other birds (pretty cool).
My favorite pages
Gallery
Two types of Cars 2 characters wallpapers were released at the time the film was out. I listed here the type we don't use on pages, for reference.
Sandbox
This sections contains some tests I did, as I tried to improve some pages. I keep them for archiving purposes...
Missing Racecars (Info collected for Piston Cup racecars)
At one time, the Piston Cup racers page wasn't complete. I wanted to complete it, and that was a bit complicate, as there are 36 known racers... So I've searched, and listed them, before finally adding all that information to the page...

Maudie is constantly attacked by the triplets, who deploy complex machinations to steal the sweets she makes.
Maudie was the first to see Elinor transformed in a bear. Elinor tries to explain her what happened unsuccessfully but scares her off She alerts Fergus, thinking there is a bear in the. Later, as Fergus detains Merida, he gives Maudie the responsibility of keeping the room's key. Merida puts the triplets transformed in bear cubs after her, and after a short chase they take her the key. At the end of the film, as the lords prepare to quit the castle, she is seen flirted by a massive warrior of Clan Dingwall.
