Wikipedia:Editor review/Evilclown93

Evilclown93
I joined the site in early February 2007, and I have gained an interest in WikiProject Ice Hockey recently, and general RC and New Page patrol. I am interested in become a sysop, especially because of the pages I have ran into during New Page Patrol. I curious to know whatkind of editor I am. I know my edit count (about 430) and experience (1 month) easily is to little for an RFA, but that will come with time. The Evil Clown 20:41, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Reviews
I'd like some more reviews, please!!


 * Hey Evilclown! Because you are a new editor, it's hard to address what sysop chores you need to work on; I am not allowed to address it here anyways. Regarding what kind of editor you are, by looking through your contributions, I think you are a quality editor off to a great start. Broad topics such as Ice Hockey is tough to get it featured. It is also harder to organize, but you are doing some great work to it, so props to you. I invite you to also join WikiProject Canada or other regional Canadian WikiProjects (you can find it in the navigation). I am from Vancouver myself. Canucks is surely the hot thing here :)

I generally don't like userpage redirecting to talk page. Userpage is important on letting other users know what kind of person you are. But that's your choice.

 * Hi, I just saw you on Articles_for_deletion/Log/2007_March_25. Just so you know, your contributions to the AfD discussions there are rather unhelpful. Comments like "Speedy Keep This is a very well written article" indicate that you should read up on WP:SK to understand what "speedy keep" means and on WP:AADD to understand why it's irrelevant on XfD whether something is "well-written" or not.

 Questions

4 From the very start of this account, your edits show a level of wiki-expertise. Please describe your prior Wikipedia experience. '' I had an account(created in about January of 2006) that I trashed in January of 2007; I have never edited it again and nor was I banned or blocked. I wanted a new account, because I felt I needed a new start. With the old account (around 290 edits) I had a rough start and a rough finish, but I learned lots about Wikipedia, and as EvilClown93, I do show a level of wiki-expertise. I don't want to be associated with that account anymore, so I'm not going to merge or name-change them. The old account was sort of a training one.'' 5 What wikiskills do you have? ''I obviously know very well (and very fast) how to revert, and tag speedy-delete templates. I can add images (and I uploaded two at my old account, none as The Evil Clown). Writing for Ice Hockey is actually a very new skill; I was more looking around Wikipedia policy with the old account. I have been playing with templates in the Sandbox, so I occasionally Welcome new users. However, one Wikikill I haven't mastered is the Preview Button; consequently I mess up a lot. (Before was the minor edit button).'' 6 What are your goals at Wikipedia? I have a lot of goals at Wikipedia. I really want to improve WikiProject Ice Hockey, I want to learn how to remeber to use the preview buttons( I always forget), and later I feel like getting into Admin coaching, but I don't feel I am at that stage yet for any sort of admin involvment. I know the criteria well, though. 7 What is your wikiphilosophy? If I vote in an RFA, and I can't support because of editcountitis issues raised by others, I try to always vote neutral, since I feel opposing in such a circumstance is too harsh. I revert suspected vandalism (because it very probably is vandalism), then I open to be hecked for reverting a useful contribution (I'm talking about stuff like replacing 1997 with 1999, and there is a lot of that in one edit). Always notify the creator of the article after I or someone else has tagged for policy violation, no matter how pointless (34315414yghfdgfgtegef) or deflamatory [Suzie is a (choice of expletive)] the article is. I want the users to know that they are being noticed ( I was welcomed within 10 minutes, I think), so I welcome them, or I leave notices about anything pertinent. 8 What wikiskills do you wish to acquire next? Right now, I'm confident doing what I am doing right now; however, I am curious as how to do a detailed vandalism revert summary ( like "reverted 2 edits by The Transhumanist identified as vandalism to last version by EvilClown93"). 9 What tools do you use? Huh? I learned recently how to use an automated revert summary, but that's about all I can think of. I'm not sure what you mean by tools.
 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * I'm pleased with my RC and New Page patrol, because it feels good to be eliminating vandalism from Wikipedia. As for WikiProject Ice Hockey, I've lately been revising Ice Hockey, and my goal is to bring it and related articles to FA status. Ice Hockey is now sort of my pet project, since there is so much work to be done about something that is important to Canada as wine is to France. I have at least 40 edits in the Sandbox (I LOVE to experiment there), and another 20 on my Userpage(playing with the layout, that sort of stuff. Just so everybody knows, I redirect my userpage to my talk. 
 * 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 been in a few conflicts. In an RFA, I voted a very controversial oppose (see discussion here []. I was pretty stressed about it at the, on the point of a meltdown, but I kept my cool, and the issue is done and settled with ([]). I also had an argument ([]). That issue has been resolved.
