Wikipedia:Editor review/AxG2

AxG
After being here for a year and a half and making a lot of edits to articles, I just want to know how I am doing and how I can improve, whether I could be an admin. Since doing one of these in December I began using Vandal templates to warn users and IPs, and I quite enjoy it. I would like to become and admin in the distant future, to further my experience with vandals. AxG  @   ► talk  22:52, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

 Reviews 

Overall, you are doing A grade work on Wikipedia. I have a few suggestions: You have all the qualifications for adminship already, but I don't feel quite ready to nominate you. If you are interested, please leave me a note a few weeks from now, and if I'm still around on Wikipedia then (no guarantees about that!), I'll consider nominating you then. I can't say anything is wrong, but I still don't have enough information. I'd like you to try judging some articles in deletion discussion such as WP:AFD to round out the major aspect of adminship that so far you have not participated in as much. I wish you good luck.

 * 1) Usually, this is only an issue with new users, but I'll have to say it to you. Please stop tinkering and fiddling with your userpage and your signature.  I know it's fun, but our time on the wiki - indeed, on the planet - is limited, and you can find better ways to utilize it.  There's nothing wrong with keeping an edit counter on your page, but you should beware the dangers of Editcountitis.
 * 2) I read your recent talk page log. That dispute with User:Miamitom was a clear case where you were right and he didn't understand the rules.  Explaining rules to other users can always feel dicey, so you may wish to reread WP:NOOB to prepare yourself for such situations as they arise.
 * 3) I am impressed by the range of your contributions, both in articles, images and the Wikipedia namespace. You have filed requests at WP:AIV, WP:RFPP, and WP:UAA, and I hope you continue the good fight.  However, I think your most valuable asset to Wikipedia is with article writing and editing, as you have been doing with the 2008 Eurovision, for example.  That should remain your primary focus.

Additionals from Dfrg.msc

Borrowed from, 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 - Eton Road nether won X Factor, and so I would speedy delete the article, or redirect it to the sub heading on the X Factor page
 * 2) CSD2 - An article describing what the company is I would keep.
 * 3) CSD3 - I would delete, but it depends if the company is well known.
 * 4) CSD4 - Complete nonsense, Speedy delete
 * 5) CSD5 - Clear article about a band, with lots of info, Keep

Vandalism or or not: 


 * 1)  - Vandalism as it's a POV
 * 2)  - Vandalism maths formula put into the article and does not tell nothing.
 * 3)  - Clearly vandalism, adding words such as hello, hi, yo mum etc.
 * 4)  - Not vandalism, removing section added about what people on forums have been saying about the article
 * 5)  - Not vandalism, but a an editor who thinks 1 Generation sounds better than First Generation.
 * 6)  - Not vandalism, describing how it fairs against others of its type and others.

Have fun! Dfrg.msc 07:17, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * All my contributions are treated the same and are at an equal level, every contribution makes Wikipedia better, and I know other people are happy about it and reading it.
 * 1) 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?
 * At first I was wrong, but I was new. But I have not been in any major conflicts, on 27 June I did keep removing a picture with no source of copyright info on the Freedom Tower (Miami) page, I put warning templates on User talk:Miamitom, to warn him, he replied on my talk and told him that the file had no source of copyright info. And I finally saind on his talk that "Your image still has no copyright info or source, see your other images. And my sense of layout is how every person edits a page, images should not be big and disrupt the flow of text."
