Pages Created
Ulysses created the bambi lesbian, beysgender, cosmicboy, demifluxromantic, fairesolean, imagigender, and preterbinary pages as well as the imagigender flag. He also renamed the closeted page and split the orangegender gastrogender and colorgender pages.

Bambi-Sexuality
On May 2, 2021, after the creation of the bambi lesbian page, multiple bambi-sexuality-related pages emerged, including bambi gay, bambi fluid, bambi non-human, and multi bambi. Ulysses updated the history and references sections of every page as they emerged.

Womasexual/Femmesexual Controversy
On May 6, 2021, Ulysses and Chaoticcylinder, the creator of the LGBTA Wiki, entered into a dispute over the relationship between the terms womasexual and femmesexual, turning into edit warring that also occurred on the mascusexual page. This dispute resulted in the removal of any mention of "womasexual" or "womansexual" and its flags from the femmesexual wiki entry and a compromised version of the mascusexual entry.

Terms Coined
Ulysses coined the term kayfabic and created the kayfabic flag on May 4, 2021.

Posts
Ulysses makes blog posts on queer and trans history, from his personal history to reading and research lists. His posts are always long-form essays, at least 1000 words each. He responds to posts rarely, usually making comments around wiki maintenance.

"Dude's Guide to Research"
On May 5, 2021, Ulysses made a post to his blog space on the LGBTA Wiki entitled "Dude's Guide to Research." Over 3,000 words long and 21,000 bytes, the post covers how to do effective research with the wiki and outside of it as well as how to format references effectively on the wiki's pages.

Personal Life
On his Tumblr blog, Ulysses has disclosed that he is a gay trans man who prefers no labels except Bear. He has identified as a Bear even before starting HRT due in part to his unspecified hyperandrogenism. He has also shared that he was born in 1998, lives in Minnesota, and is married.

In a LGBTA Wiki blog post, Ulysses shared that he came out as bisexual in 2005 and as trans in 2010 and identified as femmesexual before June 2016.
