Hey there. I am SpaceManiac888, a British user on the Lost Media wiki. I primarily focus on writing articles regarding British media, professional wrestling, robot combat and anything that peaks my interest.

Created articles

Number	Title	Date of completion	Notes
1	Worms Battle Rally (lost builds of unfinished 3D kart game; 2003)	2 July 2015	A rather obscure cancelled spin-off of the Worms series, which was assumed to have been a vehicular combat karting game.
2	Robot Wars (partially found unaired or partially aired battles of BBC gameshow; 1998-2017)	2 July 2015 (updated 4 February 2020)	Originally focusing exclusively on Hypno-Disc vs TX-108, now details every missing unaired battle that did not warrant a separate article about them.
3	Top Gear (unaired segments of BBC TV series; 2002-2015)	3 July 2015	Collection of binned or unfinished segments of Top Gear. I stated 2002-2015 not only to distinguish from the older version of Top Gear, but also the series aired from 2016 onwards.
4	Top Gear - Series 22: Episode 10 (cancelled episode of TV show; 2015)	24 August 2015	The unfinished episode whereby Jeremy Clarkson was so unhappy, he punched a producer over food.
5	BattleBots (lost build of unreleased GameCube/PlayStation 2 game based on combat TV series; 2003)	21 November 2015	Almost completed robot combat game based on the gameshow of the same name. Near the top of my "most-wanted" lost media, since prototypes have been sold before...
6	Robot Wars (lost MTV pilot of British robot combat gameshow; 2000)	5 March 2016	This pilot would lead to the American spin-off, Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors on TNN.
7	Racing Arrows (partially found Formula One TV series; 2001)	19 August 2016	Technically not the author on this one, but I suspect it would have been deleted for not meeting quality standards had I not intervened, so there we go!
8	Robot Wars Revealed (partially found BBC Choice spin-off of robot combat gameshow; 1998)	25 May 2017	Victim to the lack of digital TV viewers back in the day.
9	Grand Prix 4 (lost build of cancelled Xbox port of PC Formula One racing game sequel; 2002)	6 June 2017	Xbox port of one of my favourite PC games.
10	Robot Wars: Series 8 (lost unaired pilot of BBC gameshow; 2016)	18 June 2017	Another lost Robot Wars media article I have written, and the most recent lost Robot Wars media I believe.
11	Robots Revenge (lost Discovery robot combat documentary series; 2001)	9 July 2017	My tenth article was on one of the more obscure lost robot combat television media.
12	WWF In Your House 8: Beware Of Dog (lost untelevised wrestling PPV matches; 1996)	15 July 2017	Lost media focusing on when the WWF suffered a powercut to their PPV feed!
13	The TNT Show (lost unaired Michael Jackson sketch; 2009)	26 August 2017	Wrote about this article thanks to knowing about it from a YouTube video.
14	Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors: Season 1 (found TNN robot combat gameshow; 2001)	2 September 2017	My fifth Robot Wars article, focusing on lost battles that were eventually found not long after this article was created!
15	Robot Wars: The Kick-Off (lost BNN robot combat special; 2001)	23 September 2017	My sixth Robot Wars article, focusing on an obscure Dutch Robot Wars special, broadcast before Series 1.
16	Southern Television hijacking (lost television hijack; 1977)	15 January 2019	Like many, I believed this was already found. However, my research indicates the versions on YouTube are actually just recreations. Hence, I wonder whether any recordings of the actual event still remain.
17	BBC News Guy Kewney interview (lost unaired interview footage; 2006)	23 February 2020	The infamous "wrong Guy" also gave us some lost media to find. Became a Featured Article at some point.
18	Beat the Crusher (partially found Sky One gameshow; 1998)	20 June 2020	Based on the only episode available, it is not a great show.
19	The Jeremy Kyle Show (lost unaired Steve Dymond episode of British daytime talk show; 2019)	17 December 2020	My first NSFL article, concerning a tragedy that unfortunately was bound to occur at some point during the show's run.
20	Grand Prix 3 (lost build of cancelled Dreamcast port of PC Formula One racing game; 2001)	18 December 2020	I fondly remember playing the released PC version of this game. Certainly one to play, if you are an F1 fan.
21	F-1 World Grand Prix III (lost build of cancelled Nintendo 64 Formula One racing game; 2000-2001)	19 December 2020	Originally could not confirm the game's existence, but with some help from another Lost Media Wiki user, this is one game that theoretically could be available at some point. Became a Featured Article in January 2021.
22	F1 Racing Championship 2 (lost build of cancelled PC/PlayStation 2 Formula One game; 2001)	26 December 2020	There were just so many F1 games back in the late 1990s to early 2000s. Probably would not have been a success compared to competitors like EA's F1, Sony's PlayStation series, and Grand Prix 4.
23	Screwed: The Bret Hart Story (lost unfinished wrestling documentary film; 2005)	3 February 2021	First film article I have written, concerning Bret Hart potentially being "buried" by other wrestlers had he not decided to work with WWE on an alternative documentary! Became a Featured Article in April 2021.
24	1995 Robot Wars UK Open (partially found rejected robot combat TV show pilot; 1995)	15 April 2021	Yes, another article based on Robot Wars! Not sure if there is much else Robot Wars lost media to document, though never say never! Anyhow, this rejected pilot paved the way for Robot Wars' dominant UK arrival.
25	Telecrime (lost early BBC crime drama; 1938-1939; 1946)	18 April 2021	First crime television show according to Guinness World Records, thought it would be worth writing an article on it, even if there is no chance of recovery.
26	Cook's Night Out (lost early BBC cooking show; 1937)	18 April 2021	First cooking television show, and the start of me writing about Marcel Boulestin's programs!
27	Dish of the Month (lost early BBC cooking show; 1937)	18 April 2021	I believe Guinness World Records accidentally claimed this was the first cooking show. Close, but no cigar.
28	Marcel Boulestin television shorts (lost early BBC programs; 1937-1939)	18 April 2021	Collection of Boulestin shows that were too small to warrant separate articles.
29	Foundations of Cookery (lost early BBC cooking show; 1939)	18 April 2021	Finally, we complete the Boulestin collection, with Boulestin's last show. He never got to make another one, following the Second War World and his passing in 1943.
30	The Wasp's Nest (lost early BBC television adaptation of Agatha Christie short story; 1937)	19 April 2021	The only televised adaptation Agatha Christie herself wrote. Did she or did she not dislike television soon afterwards? Who knows!
31	Catch-As-Catch-Can Wrestling (lost early BBC televised professional wrestling matches; 1938-1939; 1946-1947)	20 April 2021	Televised professional wrestling starts here. Lovely.
32	The Blood Red Tape of Charity (lost Universal silent short propaganda drama film; 1913)	23 April 2021	One of my most sought after silent films, just because of the context behind it.
33	Arsenal vs Arsenal Reserves (lost footage of early BBC televised football match; 1937)	29 April 2021	Started out documenting professional wrestling, so it only makes sense to do so for football too!
34	Bryant & May (lost early matches commercial; 1896)	1 May 2021	The first commercial, what can I say? Piece of history here.
35	England 0-1 Scotland (partially found international football match; 1938)	1 May 2021	Not happy with the result as an Englishman, ha ha. Still, a worthy piece of history that I am glad has some available footage attached to it.
36	Hyde Park Corner (partially found early celluloid actuality film; 1889)	1 May 2021	Arguably the most important article I have written on this Wiki. A lot of mystery surrounds it though, especially when it comes to the title alone! Hopefully, those film frames are legitimate.

Planned articles

1	Bret Hart-Hulk Hogan photoshoot (lost professional wrestling promotional photos; 1993)	Will detail photos meant for a slobberknocker of a Summerslam 1993 fight! If, you know, they actually went ahead with this match.
