 Questions


 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * I've become pretty active in the AMA, in part to help me learn better dispute resolution and negotiation skills, and in part to explore parts of the Wikipedia that I might not otherwise encounter.


 * ''I've made extensive contributions to the AMA unofficial guidelines at Association of Members' Advocates; Guide to Advocacy and the now defunct/merged Advocate's Handbook, helping to create a Wikipedian association that thrives on lack of bureacracy, and which assists the Official Dispute Resolution Processes by solving conflicts at an unofficial level rather than through formal process... thereby, hopefully, benefitting the entire project by allowing more time for editing articles.


 * I'm also pretty proud of my contributions to Clown and Juggling constellations and the related dexterity play articles.


 * 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 don't really accept stress as stress per se'', I'm honing my negotiation and discussion skills by working with the AMA.


 * I had a conflict with Wikiproject:Ships over the use of 'USS' as a prefix for ships that were never called USS, and was simply outvoted. My point was that if I were to look for the name of a ship, I wouldn't look for it in the wrong place, I would look for it under its real name... I was right, they were wrong.  I hope to get back to that discussion eventually as it affects hundreds of articles.
