Wikipedia:Editor review/C628

C628
I've been significantly involved with Wikipedia for about two months now (very occasional edits for two years before that), and thought that I might as well see how I'm doing. Any problems with my edits, let me know; I can't imagine I'm doing everything right. C628 (talk) 03:46, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * I'm not particularly proud of any one category of work, as I'm active in a lot of areas, (current events, wikignoming, anti-vandalism, and beginning to make more significant edits to areas of interest) I'm probably most pleased with the articles 2010 Port Arthur oil spill, which I created and wrote most of, and ALCO Century Series locomotives, which I entirely rewrote.
 * 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?
 * I haven't been involved in anything I would term disputes, more along the lines of disagreements, which have mostly turned out well. There's one exception, from when I was a less experienced editor and I think I probably responded a bit too harshly, but I would like to think I've grown since then.  Ironically, I feel the most stressed when reverting good faith edits from new users; as I'm a great believer in not biting the newcomers, I hate having to undo good faith edits that aren't appropriate to the article at hand.

 Reviews 

Review by  You currently have 842 edits with 11 deleted edits. You recently had an article deleted. Why do you think it was deleted? Looking through your contributions, you seem to be very civil and uncontroversial. If you're looking to have an Rfa you will need to wait for awhile. While most people don't look at edit count, yours is just a little bit lower. You are using your Edit Summary around 100%, I like that. And most of your edits are to the namespace. Very good. Overall, you look like a fantastic editor, and I would keep up the great work.  D u s t i SPEAK!! 23:42, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I remember the article deletion. WP:NOTNEWS at its best; makes sense now. And I know an RfA isn't in the cards for at least a year, probably more, so no worries there. Thanks. C628 (talk) 22:50, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
