User:NinaOdell
I have been editing on Wikipedia Since October, 2006. I want a place for all constructive feedback, both positive and negative. Nina Odell 20:37, 30 December 2006 (UTC) Nina Odell 20:37, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

 Reviews 


 * You are a very constructive editor, Nina. Your edits to Buddhism-related articles, James McCune Smith, New York Manumission Society etc. have been really good. But what I appreciate most is your kindness towards fellow users, and your eagerness for consensus-building (such as your message to User:Nadirali for Decline of Buddhism in India). I don't really have any negative comments (seriously!) -- if you've ever been wrong, you've been quick to offer an apology (for example, your apology to User:Hkelkar). Though, it would be nice if you can find some time for other areas of Wikipedia such as AfD, voting at RfAs, featured articles and peer reviews. Wish you a great 2007! utcursch | talk 09:42, 31 December 2006 (UTC)


 * You are an incredibly friendly and helpful user who isn't afraid to admit it when you have made a mistake. I would echo the advice that Utcursch gave you, but seeing as admin status isn't your goal you can basically do whatever you damn well please (within policy of course ;). All I have to say is keep up the good work, and keep learning from your mistakes so you don't repeat them in the future. Cheers, --  T H  L  14:46, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

 * She helped me on Talk:Jimbo Wales and afterwards too. They say an image speaks a thousand words, so here are my thousand words on Nina.... [[Image:Original_Barnstar.png|50px]]Just H 17:01, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

 * User at Articles_for_deletion/Erotic_spanking recklessly pushed for Speedy Keep of an article after a compelling rationale was give for its deletion, which in my mind indicates a user dedicated not to sound adherence of WP policies but a personal agenda. CyberAnth 19:21, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * I'm most proud of my attempts at influencing user conduct in a positive direction. I have done this many times with many fellow editors. I have also attempted to influence editing in a positive direction through my direct actions in the mainspace, which have mostly been copy-editing and wikifying. I have made several mistakes, and learned greatly from them.
 * 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?
 * Yes I have. I was involved in an Rfarb shortly after my arrival. I also posted on the PAIN board more recently. I dealt with both very badly, and I regret my involvement. I no longer think that these sorts of processes are the way to go - both for myself, and for other editors. Arbitration and accusations are to be avoided at all costs. I prefer at best mediation, and consensus of the community at this time.
