I'm looking for an honest assessment of my Wikipedia work. I'm going to encourage constructive criticism because I really am interested in what everybody thinks. Thanks a lot! --דניאל - Danielrocks123 contribs 22:45, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Hey Daniel! Your userpage is messy, organize it now! lol! Partially j/k. The way it is right now, people probably won't spend much time reading about you. Anyways...

Some of the comments addressed in your previous editorial review still applies to you at present. Great job on Wikipedia-related edits, especially on the mediation tasks and AfD discussions. However, this is a encyclopedia, so you may want to contribute to the article content or writing articles sometimes. Most of your mainspace edits that I looked through are either reverts, correcting spelling, fix wording and other minor things. They are also spread out all over the place. You are definitely welcomed to do that! (Hell, I love it when users like you help on correcting my grammar/spelling). But to progress into a more sophisticated editor, contributing to article contents is crucial. Minor things can be done by bot somtimes.

Good editor. Good philosophy on #2. Cheers! AQu01rius (User &#149; Talk) 05:11, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * I am probably most proud of my contributions to WP:MEDCOM. The mediation committee has been a great way for me to get involved in resolving disputes.  I am also a New page and recent changes patroller.  Finally, I like to help welcome new users when I'm not doing anything else.
 * 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?
 * I've never really been in a terrible conflict on Wikipedia. Naturally, the MEDCOM work involves working with arguing parties, but so far I've been able to deal with that.  I avoid getting involved in disputes by never editing when I'm in a bad mood and always remembering that if the other person is willing to seriously argue with me, he obviously thinks that what he is doing is good for the project.

 * 2) What is the purpose of Wikipedia?
 * The main purpose of Wikipedia is to write a useful, accurate, and easy-to-use encyclopedia. The other aspects (aka community, etc.) are beneficial, but not the main purpose of the project.
 * 1) What is the essense of Wikipedia?
 * I'm not completely sure that I understand this question, but I'll take it to mean, "What makes Wikipedia what it is?" I think what makes Wikipedia so unique is that it is user-created.  While this causes us vandal-fighthers some headaches, it keeps the encyclopedia up-to-date.  Wikipedia does not need multiple volumes like other encyclopedias.
 * 1) Do you want to become an administrator, and if so, why?
 * I would like to become an administrator at some point. In fact, my recent RfA is one of the main reasons that I put myself up for review again.  While I received some support, it is clear that the community doesn't think that I'm ready to be an admin yet, and I want to find out more exactly what everyone is looking for, but I digress.  I would like to be an administrator so that I could block vandals, help out with speedy deletions, close AfD's, and protect pages that are being repeatedly vandalized.
 * 1) What activities are you engaged in now that admin tools would help you do better?
 * See my answer to the previous question.
 * 1) What are the most important things an administrator should keep in mind?
 * The most important thing that an administrator should keep in mind is that not everyone has as much Wikipedia experience as him or her. Administrators should live by WP:BITE and WP:AGF.  These policies are what help new users stay involved, and admins should be conscious of that.
 * 1) What areas do you feel you need the most improvement in?
 * I am far from proficient in all of the copyright rules, and I would like to learn a little more about that.
 * 1) What departments have you worked in?
 * I have been involved with WP:MEDCOM. In addition, I patrol Special:newpages and Special:recentchanges.
 * 1) What would you consider your greatest strengths as a Wikipedian?
 * I consider myself to be a friendly and helpful user. I am willing to help other users out who have problems.  In general, I try to be as helpful as I can.
 * 1) What are your Wikipedia goals?
 * My main goal is to do my part in making sure that Wikipedia is useful and accurate. I spend a lot of time reverting vandalism because that is the kind of thing that ruins Wikipedia's reputation.
