Wikipedia:Editor review/The Arbiter

The Arbiter
I enjoy editing Wikipedia. I collaborate on various things, and especially enjoy reverting vandalism. The rollback feature is nice. The Arbiter  ★★★  23:40, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * Primarily, I use the recent changes list and other things to revert vandalism. However, I also sometimes add information into articles. I like my edit to the American Civil War about the Dred Scott decision. I also added Tim Wilson's new album to his page.
 * 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?
 * As of now, I have not. I have observed some, but not been in any. Hopefully, it will stay that way. If it ever happens, I will treat the other user with respect and try to reach an agreement.

 Reviews 
 * Review by  Intelligent  sium  :

You seem to be doing pretty well so far; a look at your contributions show no major blunders. Your anti-vandalism work is very good, and you seem to know the difference between vandalism and non-vandalism, and you warn/message accordingly. I appreciate your efforts to save articles from deletion, as evidenced by your edits to Windows Police Pro. Your new username seems a bit risky, as "Arbiter" could too easily be misread or misinterpreted as "Arbitrator", but as a 'crat thought it was OK, I have no real issue with it. You might want to do some more mainspace work; only about 11% of your edits, as far as I can see, are to the article namespace, while over 36% are to your userpage. I have some concerns about this edit to Talk:Taylor Swift; as I have stated there, talk pages should not be used for general discussion, posting of userboxen, etc., as they are not forums or MySpace, but places to discuss improvements to articles. Your comment at Articles for deletion/Windows Police Pro seems to show that you do not understand what should and should not be included in Wikipedia. A few of your talk page comments seem unconstructive or demonstrate a lack of understanding of talk page guidelines, especially this (use the RD/MISC) and the one linked above. My suggestion is, keep up what you're doing well (article rescue, vandalism reversion, and the like), and try to do more mainspacing. Keep up the good work!
