Splinky922 is an editor who joined the editing scene around the Generation 5 era, though has been fixated with the genre since 2012.

Biography
He first made his YouTube account in 2015 where he dumped some old stop-motion movies made from 2012 to 2013, as well as projects made for school, vacation videos, and gameplay footage taken on a mobile camera (yep, I don't have any capture cards). On top of that, Splinky also has a Wordpress blog he first made for a high school class, a Flickr account for storing old photographs, and a Vimeo for videos not featured on his YouTube page. On April 26, 2020, Splinky uploaded his first edit, one of a Ruby Gloom fan animation to YouTube and just a week later, he would upload his second edit. He wouldn't make any new edits for a while until February 2021 when he did his first edit of a commercial and made another one four months later before going on another hiatus to focus on other stuff. Then on March 10, 2022, Splinky returned with four commercial edits and just a week later, made his first 11-minute edit of a cartoon - or more specifically, one of two segments from an episode of Spliced. After receiving an invite from EditsofItaly, Splinky became a prominent member of the official "Editors & YTPers" server on Discord and later in April, took up commission with RobotRoshawn to write two edits of Loud House episodes, the first of which would premiere in September 2022.

Switching to first-person for a second, some of my favorite editors over the years have been MizzouEdits, XScourgeTailsX, EditsforWinners, AReallyAwesomeGuy117, RasterofMandomness, RobotRoshawn, MagiswordEditor, Manhattan Mauler, and Elsagate Edited. While there are plenty of SpongeBob edits that I've enjoyed, the type of edited videos I mainly prefer are ones that are of another subject including fan animations, comic dubs, movie trailers, and any other animated series (besides Ed, Edd n' Eddy as that may be the second most commonly edited series around here). While it's customary to use classic G1-era sounds, as well as those from the other pre-G5 eras, I love to experiment with new sources whenever making edits, even if I know I'm only gonna use a particular clip once or twice. Some sound sources you will find attributive to mine are a lot of old movies, "I'm a Marvel and I'm a DC," The Carpetbagger, Drunken Uncle, FreedomToons, fan-made ERB channels (Moleman, Freshy Kanal), and BinkieMcFartnuggets among others.
