Wikipedia:Editor review/Incnis Mrsi

Incnis Mrsi
An advice needed which activity (and in which wiki) should be prioritized. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 20:06, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * At user: Incnis Mrsi/contribs I prepared a review of some highly-concentrated my contributions, mostly in English Wikipedia. (BTW, could anybody sysopped create the user: Incnis Mrsi/█ page intended to host an essential part of the review? I can’t save anything to a non-existent title because of filters.)  Note that my entire content contribution is several times larger because I ever edited about 2,400 articles here, also numerous templates and categories, not counting talk pages and WP:. Many of you already know me as a user who pushes [rollback], fixes formatting/typography, and argues on talk pages, but these are not all things I am capable of. Also, I make (or made) contributions in other wikis of the Foundation.
 * 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 had hundreds of conflicts in wiki. It is a part of process and I accustomed to it a long time ago. There are some things that particularly irritate me, but there are also certain my things that irritate some other people. I can endure my share of uncomfortable encounters; do not know how many people also can this.
 * 1) What do you want to get out of this editor review? Are you thinking of running for adminship? Would you like feedback on a specific area of your editing? Or would you just like a general review of your edits?
 * I edit here not because I like the process of editing English text. Actually, not at all. I edit here out of respect to this great community which I like. For years I tried to edit en.WP on a broad front, I expanded the watchlist (now there are 3144 SUBJECTPAGEs there, of which nearly 2,000 articles), and took part in numerous discussions. Though, watching all these articles and discussions, assessment of edits, posting own comment to dozens of simultaneous discussions, consume a lot of resources. I am tired to make thousands of one-inch advances over a vast “territory”. It is time to concentrate and choose some high-priority tasks. I need an advice what is expected of me: participation in some projects? A real activity in writing articles? Continuation of the present habit to distribute edits thinly over thousands of articles? Something else, possibly outside English Wikipedia?

 Reviews 


 * Hello there. After seeing your closed request for adminship, I feel the need to give you an review.


 * First and foremost, remove the header on the top of your talk page as suggested by other editors.


 * You seem to exercise aggressive style of commenting regularly. It would be better if you could be cautious over your choice of vocabulary when you engage with other editors and the community. None of us are opponents of each other, so stay patient and be polite whenever you feel irritated.


 * When it comes to assessing your contributions to the article namespace of Wikipedia, it isn't about everything you have ever written. Instead of spreading your edits across everywhere, why don't you dedicate yourself to selected articles of your interest and improve them to featured status? This might give you an idea on the kind of format you could follow.


 * Perhaps you could decrease the number of entries on your watchlist. It would reduce your workload and help you to focus on areas that truly needs your attention in my opinion. For example, you could spend more time in Mathematics reference desk to establish yourself as a respected editor and mathematician in the Wikipedian community. It would be positive image boost.


 * In addition, it would also be desirable if you can develop some experience on working with portals by improving them to featured status as well (for example, Portal:Algebra?)

On a last note, it isn't necessary to have too much emphasis on your contributions outside of English Wikipedia. You seem to be a good editor, so don't be discouraged from the recent setback. Wishing you the best of luck in the paths ahead. Alex ShihTalk 01:49, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
