 Questions


 * 1) Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * The first article that I created, Jeff Scher, was an accomplishment for me. When I had read about his work in the NY Times, I proceeded to look him up in Wikipedia. When I noticed that he did not yet have an article, I was pleased to be able to create one. I took time to research his life and works in order to get a firm grasp on his styles, etc. Although the article was tagged as needing copyediting work, etc., I know that I created a strong article stub.


 * 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 have not engaged in any editing conflicts. The only confrontation that caused me stress in the past was what I could classify as "biting the newbie." I had just learned about reverting vandalism and viewing "last edits," and accidentally gave a "[[Image:Information.svg|25px]] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed.

" warning to a user who did not deserve it. Another editor seemed to get on my case about it although it was clear that it was done in error. It was not a conflict, but made me feel a bit discouraged at the time. I responded to the message from the editor indicating that it was a mistake on my part in order to avoid any misunderstanding. I have since improved my vandalism patrol and have continued editing Wikipedia.
