User:Adam mugliston/Adopt/Entry/Jemmera

Welcome to Adam Mugliston's Adopt-a-User program! As that I don't know much about you, I would like you to fill out a questionnaire that I made.

But before that; About Me.

Me
I have been on Wikipedia for almost 4 years, although I did sometimes have long breaks. So far, I have made edits. I mainly create and edit articles to do with buses, as that is my hobby. I also do some anti-vandalism work, I'm a member of the Welcoming Committee and I also potter around with other bits and bobs. My other interests include various other forms of public transport, cats and music. I am usually on for a very short while in the mornings, about 7.30am - 8.30am and then I am on from 4pm - 10.30pm (all times in GMT). On weekends I am usually on from 8.30am - 11pm.

You
Now tell me about you.

About Yourself
Age: (I am asking, so I can know who I will be mentoring. Below I have listed a few age ranges, so you don't have to disclose your real age. If you don't feel comfortable telling me this, that's fine.)

18-24

Your interests: (Just tell me what you like doing)

My primary interest is in entertainment, specifically television media. As a hobby I love sailing, and jogging outdoors.

When are you online?

Evenings primarily, from about 10pm-1am EST.

Your activities on Wikipedia: (What have you done so far?)

In the past couple of days I've been working on my first article about the TV series 'T&M'. The page is unfinished, but you're welcome to check out my progress on it in my sandbox. User:Jemmera/T&M

How long have you been on Wikipedia?

I've used Wikipedia for years, but have only joined as a user and begun to learn about editing in the past few days.

Out of 1 - 10, rate how advanced you are: (I am not really expecting anything over 3, a 1 would be knowing the very basics of wiki markup, a 10 would be someone who took part in all kinds of tasks on Wikipedia.)

Probably about 2. I am familiar with the basics of using Wikipedia, but I still have a lot to learn.

What you hope to get out of mentoring/adopting
I hope to learn more about how to effectively write and edit Wikipedia articles.

Is there an area you think we should particularly work on?

I would love to learn more about page design and formatting different layouts. I also would like to learn more about proper citation.

What do you hope to achieve by the time you graduate?

I hope to have a working understanding of how to edit and create Wikipedia entries along with supporting materials, such as pictures. Jemmera (talk) 03:35, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
