 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * My primary contributions to Wikipedia are generally related to Bangalore and its related topics. Bangalore has been conferred Featured Article status, and hence I try my best to keep the article updated with the correct information and reliable citations. I have been fairly active in discussions and edits related to Bangalore, Karnataka, India, many articles relating to WikiProject Cities, Military history WikiProject, and am keenly interested in the fields of Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, and other fields of Science and Engineering.
 * 1) Have you been in any disputes 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 have been in editing disputes, but have always tried to maintain my tone neutral and encourage other users to maintain their cool. They have not caused me any stress as such because most of the users I have encountered in disputes were knowledgeable and fair. In the future as well, I will strive to maintain neutrality in my point of view, and will encourage others as well to maintain calm and be neutral as well.

 * A look at your contributions shows that you are editing actively in many namespaces, which is good. One thing to watch is your use of edit summaries, which really helps other editors understand the reason behind your edit. Not doing so may lead to misunderstandings. There is an editing preference you can set to remind you to leave an edit summary. It is under the "editing" tab; check the box next to "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary". Additionally, this page contains much useful information about Wikipedia, including links to policies and guidelines, which I encourage you to read. Other than that, your contributions are on the right track. Keep it up, and explore new areas. You might even find something new that you like doing.
