This seems most likely given that it's Vi
Anyway, I guess mafiatica is slightly awkward, I certainly like the idea for it though. I think both are better than the current titles.
are you thinking of me when you're with somebody else?

Well, it doesn't
have
to have the "tica" on the end of it.
It could just be Encyclopedia Mafia.
I also think Mafiatica just doesn't look right.
I do like The Librarian a lot. It really captures Vi.
Vi's gender doesn't matter.
Nth to whatever Nom goes through, I support both.

Mafatica, Mafipedia, Mafiate, Mafiatic Compendium, Mafinomicon, Doctrate in Mafia, Mafian Lorekeeper. Pick a synonym, see if you can fit Maf in there somewhere.

I don't know why fitting mafia in there is such a priority. It kind of just makes it look silly now that I look back on it. I like the simplicity and brevity of The Librarian.

Personally, I think Vi is a male pretending to be a female acting androgenous, and I always use female pronouns for him.

Nope. That kind of sounds like Vi. Don't get me wrong. I love Vi. But diplomatic and sweet he ain't.
Besides, I don't think of librarians as bitchy exactly. I think of them as
severe
.
I kind of like ArchiVist, but makes him sound a little bit like a guy who sticks things in manila envelopes and puts them into metal file cabinets.

ArchVist makes me think of someone who is always in the back room doing things. Vi definitely does that with his Behind the Scenes work on the Wiki, but his work with the Wiki is more minor when compared to his overall work.
If Encyclopedia Mafiatica or variations of that is disliked, same with The Librarian, perhaps The Architect? I feel like it fits with his work on the wiki, game theory, and his actual modding. Plus, it sounds kool.

It isn't that I don't like it, but I think we could do better.
And SleepKrew. I knew something subconscious slipped into my mind. I thought The Architect was in the matrix, but all I could remember was the Oracle. meh.
And no, Vi's wiki work is not minor. I find Vi's wiki work minor to all of his other contributions to the site, though. Mainly because I don't use the wiki.

Clearly the answer to "Is Vi male or female?" is "Yes."
