Wikipedia:Editor review/AndieM

AndieM
I have been actively editing on Wikipedia for about three months now. I feel that at this stage I should see if I can make any improvements to my editing. AndieM   (Am I behaving?'')  13:10, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * I mostly revert vandalism, though I will occasionally correct a typo or add wikilinks. The bits of work I'm most proud of are any reversions of vandalism in late March-early April because I made lots of them. (edit: It would actually have to be reporting a user to AIV. 16:46, 18 April 2012 (UTC))
 * 1) Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
 * I have been in a couple of very trivial and short disputes over CSD tags, but I have always admitted fault and learned from my mistakes. If I ever got involved in a major dispute I would explain my point of view of the incident but also consider the other editor's.

Known issues:
 * I make lots of edits to userspace. I'm concerned about that too, but I'm starting to wean myself off of that and focus on reverting vandalism.

As per I know, she has been here actively for just a little and have made superb progress. I still mess up things and she doesn't. She is a good editor. And can do a lot for the project. My only concern is that you have 33% edits in User space. There is nothing wrong in it, but when you run for adminship in an year or two, it will be a problem if you continue the tempo. There are many RfAs which have been unsuccessfull because the editor had too many edits in User space.

Otherwise, a superb editor for me. We need editors like you!  Yash  t  101   14:18, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm not exactly looking for adminship because I don't create or improve articles; I prefer to fight vandalism. Thank you all the same! AndieM    (Am I behaving?'')  14:22, 18 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Review by Rsrikanth05

Hi, I've not actually bumped into you, while you are editing, and hence I will try and be as neutral as possible. I've gone thru several of your edits. I'm particularly please with your vandal reversion. I hope you request for Rollback rights a few months down the line and start using tools like WP:HG, or WP:GLOO. I'm a bit upset that you haven't created any articles, and would love to see you create a few. Creating an article increases one's views, ways of thinking, and helps make one a better editor. I really appreciate the fact that you've specified that you don't want to be an admin. That is how I believe everyone should be. I'd really appreciate it if you reduced your outings at RfAs and concentrated more on improving articles. If you need any help or support, feel free to contact me on my talk page. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 14:29, 25 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Just to clarify:


 * 1. I got rollback rights last month. However I still need to get the hang of using Huggle (right now I prefer Twinkle because I can use it on my iPad).


 * 2. I have started creating an article in my sandbox. It might take a while to finish because it's nearly exam time at school, but it'll be done eventually! :)


 * Thank you a lot for the review and it's great to know I can contact you for anything! AndieM    (Am I behaving?'')  14:36, 25 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Aah, I guess, I didn't notice you have Rollback rights. As for the iPad, yeah, I know, it's a bit painful editing, Twinkle is fine enough. [Side note, we tried to moot the development of an Anti-vandal app for the iOS platform three yrs ago.] Take your time, I know how tough school is, I myself edit thru public cyber cafes at times, once in a while. Happy editing, and cheerio. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:05, 25 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Review by Peridon

What I've seen so far indicates a user who thinks carefully, acts carefully and comments carefully - and whose judgement I would respect. I advise paying primary attention to school, but when relaxing(?) here, get as wide an experience as you can. I don't think you'll go wrong. You also show courage in seeking this review. I'm not one who pays great attention to age - I know people of few years who show great sense and people of many years who show little sense - but there are those here who revere calenders. Everyone respects good judgement and wide experience. When you have the chance, get it (the experience). No rush - the encyclopaedia's not quite finished yet... Peridon (talk) 23:00, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
