Wikipedia:Editor review/E

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I am formerly known as Extranet, due to a recent usurpation.

E (talk · contribs) I'm currently thinking on requesting adminship for the third time because I believe I have improved my performance and work here since my other two RfAs. I don't really want to go ahead with the request if the community thinks I'm not ready yet. I have used all the advice given through both the RfAs, and believe it's time I can take on the challenge of the mop and bucket. Through this editor review, I am asking for any comments whatsoever on my work here on Wikipedia so I can determine whether it's time to request again for the third time lucky. Many thanks, E talk 07:51, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reviews

  • Hello, E, and thank you for requesting comments about your edits. I regret that your request has not been acted on in a timely manner. E, as of Wed Jun 13 23:13:00 2007 GMT, you have 2728 edits total, 833 of those are in the mainspace. You seem to enjoy Wikipedia and it looks like you have a knack for editing. You had 1027 edits last month, which is a great. Keep that up. I would continue to work in the Wikipedia edit space, and I encourage you to try expressing your opinions at RfA and RfD. However, remember that mainspace edits are the reason this project exists, so I also recommend spending time there as much as you can. As for your third RfA, I think you might want to wait until about 1,000 mainspace edits and 600 Wikipedia edits. Keep up the good work! Wishes, wpktsfs (talk) 23:26, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Questions

  • Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
I am pleased with absolutely all my 2200+ edits here, but a few that have stood out from the rest have been:
  • All my vandalism reverts - Keeping the community vandal-free.
  • Wet'n'Wild Water World - Rewriting of article using updated and released information, add pictures and a reformatted and new 'Theme Park' infobox.
  • Greenslopes Private Hospital - Full new article with a 'Hospital infobox' and new information regarding new hospital wing and features.
  • OptiVISOR - New article with two uploaded photographs and sourced information.
  • Habbo Hotel and Sulake - Reformatting of a few sections and adding references.
  • Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
Yes, I have been in quite a few disputes on Wikipedia, mostly with vandals, who threat you in many ways with edits (even more vandalism) to my user and talk pages. I always revert the edits and then try to calm the user down. I am a friendly person and would always deal with conflicts in a explanative and non-violent way. I do not try to bite the newcomers, but in some cases of serious vandalism, there is actions that we do have to take to stop them.

Additional Questions from Dfrg.msc:

Borrowed from Glen (talk · contribs), I'm sure he wont mind. These should test you editing skills, and show if you have any weaknesses which you can work on. So, just write your answer next to the Question. Good luck.

Speedy Delete or not:

  1. CSD1
  1. In some cases, it should be tagged with {{musician-stub}}. In other cases, it may be speedy deleted per CSD G1 or CSD G2 (page without much meaningful content).
  1. CSD2
  1. Speedy deleted as per CSD G11 (blatant advertising of a company/website).
  1. CSD3
  1. In most cases, I would tag this with {{media-company-stub}}.
  1. CSD4
  1. Speedy delete as per CSD G1 (page has no meaningful content, nonsense)
  1. CSD5
  1. Stub tag with {{UK-band-stub}}. No deletion needed.

Vandalism or or not:

  1. [1]
  1. If it was explained in a bit more detail with a factual reference, I'd keep it there. Otherwise, vandalism, revert.
  1. [2]
  1. Blatant vandalism, revert.
  1. [3]
  1. Blatant vandalism, revert.
  1. [4]
  1. No vandalism here. Simply a bit of a cleanup - keep as is.
  1. [5]
  1. Vandalism, any number under or including ten should be written in text format, not numbered - revert.
  1. [6]
  1. The sentence only requires a rephrasing or copy edit. Also needs a factual reference - no vandalism.

Have fun! Dfrg.msc 07:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
