Wikipedia:Editor review/Acather96

Acather96
Hello, I have been editing Wikipedia since Christmas, and have made 10.3 thousand edits. I started off as a vandal fighter, gained rollback and used Huggle mostly'. I then moved into Afc and gradually started other things like NPP, allot of edits with AWB, and then started to 'patrol' the user creation log, welcoming and/or reporting users. I also work at SCV, and am currently trying to revive WP:BEDS. I am requesting a review to see if I can improve my editing, or behaviour as an editor in general. I am also feeling a little discouraged, as even though I have put in allot of time and effort I have never received a barnstar. Thanks in advance for all your comments :) Acather96 (talk) 21:13, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * I am not a brilliant content writer, I have improved a few articles, but nothing to the point where I would consider proud. I am pleased with my work at SCV,I've got an awful lot of copy-vio's deleted. Also, I've created quite a few templates and a barnstar for WP:BEDS, along with member guides.
 * 1) Have you been in any disputes 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?
 * Quite a few. Please see my talk page and archives for the actual disputes.I always try to remain civil and polite, as I beleive this is the only way you can have a productive discussion. In one recent conversation, I thought a user was insulting me, though actually they weren't it turned out.

 Reviews 


 * I like what I see from you. Lack of content creation is not a problem for you, in my opinion, since you've supplemented the standard anti-vandalism work with a lot of other things--copyright work, looks like an increasing amount of image work, etc. You've really done a nice job in not getting constrained by the standard options of either writing or anti-vandalism. I also like what I see from your interactions with others recently, you seem to have matured and become a more level-headed person.  You've also done well using edit summaries, good there.  All in all, I'd say that you're on a good track right now; if you want to branch into content work, that's always good, but given how well you're doing elsewhere, I'd say it's hardly a necessity for you.
