Wikipedia:Editor review/Juliancolton 2

Juliancolton
It's been a few months since my last, so I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong and what I'm doing right. Thanks! Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  02:00, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

 Reviews 
 * You appear to be doing an excellent job in both article work and the project space! I did a relatively through search through your contributions and nothing bad stuck out. It seems that your have adressed many of the problems brought up in your last RFA so I would say that adminshp is a realistic possibility for you soon. I would be happy to nominate you myself if you wish (although be warned, my record at RFA is not so hot).
 * P.S. I found your secret page in less than 20 seconds :P (I must admit I cheated though; prefix index). - Icewedge (talk) 20:13, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review and kind words! My last RfA was relatively recent, so I was planning on waiting 1/2–three months before another one. Also, yea, nobody find those things aside from cheating. ;) Cheers, Juliancolton Tropical  Cyclone  00:41, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
 * K, I didnt realize that the last one was so recent, my bad. Also, sorry that aside from my nomination offer my review was pretty much contentless. Anyways, keep up the good work! - Icewedge (talk) 08:59, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm going to go through several important areas in this review:
 * Review from Malinaccier
 * Article content. You've done really well here of course.  Keep it up.
 * XFD. You've done very well here (it looks like you try to comment on a few deletion discussions a day).  My only suggestion here would be to comment on other types of XFD (I saw just AFD and MFD in your recent edits).  Perhaps TFD?
 * Speedy deletion. Once again, really good.  Just remember quality over quantity.
 * Vandalism patrol. In this area, you are slightly lacking.  From your recent edits, I can see that you've been trying to get more experience here, which is good.  I would like to caution you on using Huggle.  If you aren't paying attention while using it, many mistakes can be made.  Other editors also dislike the fact that it swells your edit count quickly.  Use at your own risk.
 * Misc. You should consider spending a little more time at the Help Desk (you have 19 edits there which is good, but it's always good practice to help others from time to time).

Basically, you're doing very well. Just keep working in the projectspace and on the concerns in your RFAs and you'll continue to do well. (Sorry that this gave very little advice--you're too good of an editor to criticize IMO :P) Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 01:30, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review and kind words! I only started vandalism patrol a few months ago, but when I have time, I try to do at least 20 minutes a day with Huggle. About the Help Desk, I have it watchlisted, but everytime I try to respond to a query, I get edit conflicted! Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  01:35, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

 Questions

''
 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * Hard to say. Initially I was primarily an article builder, although in the past few months I have started contributing more to organization, vandal fighting, new page patrolling, and other general project-space areas. However, I still write and improve articles when I can, and I have written several GAs, two featured lists and one featured article, the latter of which appeared on the Main Page on June 10. Although I am a participant of numerous WikiProjects, I dedicate the majority of my content-building time to the WikiProject Tropical cyclones and the WikiProject U.S. Roads. Since joining in November 2006 (I didn't start editing until October 2007), I have piled up over 13,000 edits, although I must admit Huggle and Twinkle probably account for over 1,000 of those.
 * 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?
 * ''Conflicts are difficult ot nearly impossible to avoid in Wikipedia. Although I try to stay as calm, polite and civil as I can, I have gotten into minor conflicts (especially when I was new to Wikipedia); most recently I have found myself edit warring over the title of the Hurricane Gracie article, although only after attempting discussion failed. I take full blame for that. Almost always, when an editor is causing me stress, I remain calm and civil and either abandon the situation or take further action, depending on the circumstances.
