User:Scarce/Mistakes

This is a list of mistakes I've made or things I regret doing. First, I'd like to say: I exclude my first 5,000 edits. I would say maybe 5% of them were constructive. I think I finally got a grasp on what Wikipedia is towards mid-July 2009.

Incidents

 * March 2010
 * 1) In the edit summary I wrote "this section is about Justin, not their relationship" thinking this was about Miley Cyrus, not a fake relationship.
 * 2) I overwrote/uploaded the incorrect cover art for a single.


 * February 2010
 * 1) Typos  (corrections: )


 * November 2009
 * 1) I added flagicon to the infobox for New Moon (2009 film) for United States even though the vast majority of international release dates were also on November 20.
 * 2) I updated a film's Rotten Tomatoes score as the votes came in       I should've waited for the voting to stop
 * 3) I changed Gross US$... to Gross US$...


 * August 2009
 * 1) I made an editor apologize for me attacking them. ~  ς ح   д r   خ є  ~ 17:56, 6 December 2009 (UTC)


 * July 2009
 * 1) At the help desk, I wrote "...not every single article requires references if they are not needed" I retracted that part two minutes later
 * 2) I violated one of Meta's greatest guidelines with an admin

Paula Deen

 * November 23, 2009
 * I identified an edit as vandalism and removed it
 * I realized the edit was not vandalism and added it back, and cleaned it up not realizing the content was not encyclopedic
 * Some vandalism began to outbreak and was removed, yet my edit remained
 * A user posted a message on the talk page about the removal of the content and removed it
 * In the end, quite a bit of vandalism began to break out causing the page to receive a month of protection
