Wikipedia:Editor review/Ebe123 (2)

Ebe123 (2)
Hello, I'm Ebe123. It has been around 5 months since my last ER, but I thought that it would be good to re-apply. I have really changed my focus here compared to last time. I'm an bureaucrat and importer on, and autopatrol on. Ebe 123  (+) $talk Contribs$ 22:36, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * I used to do lots of NPP work. Now, I do MfD things, MtC drives, sometimes Vandalism works.  I do errors, but I try to revert.
 * 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 do get vandals vandalize my user and talk page, I just ignore it and revert. I do get some uncivil comments, but all is fine.  If I were in a content dispute, I would discuss the change on the talk page and possible go on WP:DRN.

 * I've noticed at least your last over 90 edits are to Wikipedia (prefix) and User namespaces. While this isn't necessarily a bad thing, I've noticed your production drip off to working on vandalism on the pages with a Wikipedia: or User: prefix. Try to spend more time contributing to articles, because what caught my eye was your article editing has dripped off. But other than that, you're a fantastic editor, and well-deserving of any praise you receive. It's just you should try to broaden your scope a little bit. Hope I have not offended you, and warm regards, Beluga  boy ''cup of tea? 12:53, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review. Honestly, I like more working on the meta side, and rarely going to the surface, but I will broden my scope.  I'm currently working on some chemical pages now.    Ebe 123   (+) $talk Contribs$ 21:55, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Review by Kudpung

 * Hi. I would have thought  that  with  only  40 of your 549 edits last  month  being  to  article space, you  might  like to  consider improving  articles, and most  importantly cleaning  up  your own. Try  to  review and copy edit  your  own  work -  I've done a major overhaul of your  Les Surveillantes, please see the history  and compare the diffs to  see exactly  the changes I  have made. There is absolutely  no  shame attached to  writing  an article in  English  if it  is not  your first  language, so  don't  hesitate to  tag it  for clean up  by  the WP:GOCE. Remember also  that all  articles, such  as  this one too must  be referenced, and to  add the   appropriate stub templates  to  the very  short articles.
 * I echo  Belugaboy's comments above. Splitting  hairs such  as you  did with  this edit  on  a project  page is so  unimportant  that  it's even disruptive because 1) the edit summary  was not  sufficiently  descriptive, and 2) it  makes editors  have to  look up  the page history  to find out  what  you  did, and then take time to  tell  you  here why  the edit  wasn't  a good idea and a waste of yours and everyone's time. For example,we already  have a lot  of people combating  vandalism and  if you  really  want  to  work  on  the 'meta' side (which  does not  include correcting  messages on  project  talk  pages), perhaps you  could do  more new page patrolling -  it's an area that  is seriously  under staffed, your assistance would be most  welcome, and if you  need any  help  understanding anything, don't  hesitate to  let me know. If ever you  have designs on  being  an admin, I  recommend you read this and this.  Fais gaffe à  toi!  :) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:42, 3 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Funny thing you brought up your criteria, since I do not fit it and never will (check my talk archive 1 and your point 11, 16, and 26). Also, I started a discussion about your criteria on your talk page.    Ebe 123   → report ← Contribs 19:42, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't  recall any  discussion with  you  about  my  criteria on  my  talk  page,  but  I  remember you  having  one of these badges on  your user page:  which  is why  I  offered the links above.  Nevertheless, you  are most  welcome to  discuss my  criteria  -  discussion  is an essential  process before doing  anything big on  Wikipedia ;) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 22:30, 4 November 2011 (UTC)


 * I have now had time to  review your talk  page archive as you  suggested -  I  have also  taken the liberty  of changing  the bg colour so  that  the page can be read. You  obviously  didn't  make a very  good start on  Wikipedia due to  your impatience at  wanting  to  get  involved in  meta and maintenance areas and wanting  to  be an admin. I'm  sure that  you  have learned from  these errors, but  do  understand that  adminship is not  a trophy (or any  other user rights for that  matter) and should never be set as a goal  to  be achieved. You  may  still  need to  ask  people the right  way  when you need help  and advice -  much  of the work  I  do  here on  Wikipedia is helping  younger editors to  overcome their difficulties and I'm always available, but  admins such  as Worm run  special  programmes for mentoring  new or youger editors. My  best  advice for you  is to concentrate on  contributing  good stuff to  articles, do  some page patrolling, learn to  work  as a member of a team, and  stay  out  of  important  maintenance areas for a while - and that also  means not  starting  central  discussions on  things that  you  don't  yet  fully  understand :)  Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:34, 6 November 2011 (UTC)


 * I'll add to what I  mentioned above nearly  2 months ago. Your recent  comments at  AfD demonstrate a misunderstanding  of the way  deletion  debates are conducted. Perhaps you  should read WP:DELETION, WP:AfD, and WP:AADD bearing  in  mind that  many  essays are based on  common sense and help  to  illustrate existing  policies and guidelines, and may  be cited during  deletion  discussions and other noticeboards. I  suggest  again  that  you  continue to  add content  or improve articles before getting  too  deeply  involved in  meta matters that  you  do  not  appear to fully  understand.

 * I don't  know if you  continue to  follow AfD debates you  vote on, but  you  may  be interested to  see how this one was closed. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:11, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I do not care about results, or even AfD. I do not take pride in my article work.  Do I get notification when someone else edits an article I create, no.  So why get a big notice telling me "The article you have created will get deleted".  The notices should be way friendiler and they are for newcomers who don't know the watchlist.  The notice also implies ownership of the article to me.   Ebe 123  → report on my contribs. 13:50, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
