Wikipedia:Editor review/Yunshui

I've been around for a while now, and want to make sure that I'm a net positive for the project. Yunshui 雲&zwj;水 11:01, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

 Questions


 * 1) What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
 * I primarily deal with reverting and warning vandals. I try to make an effort to help new users (I'm an active user of the Feedback Dashboard), and I also do some intermittent copyediting, often (by necessity) on India-related articles. I occasionally create new articles, tending towards sourced stubs for other editors to expand upon.
 * 1) Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
 * I have rarely been involved in disputes more heated than AfD, but would point to this and this as an example of how I deal with them - reference to policy and attempts to explain my reasoning, and of course, NPA.

 Reviews 

Hi Yunshui. I've had a look through your edits, and I can confirm you most certainly are a net positive for the project. I'd even go so far as to remove the word "net"! You have been around for about 2 and a half years, but only started editing in earnest last summer. Overall, you seem to have focussed on vandalism reversion, CSDs and general patrolling work. From what I've seen, you've done a very good job of it. There's a few other areas you might want to look at though.

 * Content creation
 * I know content creation isn't something that a lot of wikipedians are good at, but when it comes down to it, it's why we're here. I appreciate that you've done some copyediting, and created a fair amount articles, which having skimmed look fine, but few have been extended beyond stub or start levels and you haven't put any in for peer review at the moment (DYK, GA or any other peer reviewing). This ensures that your article work is up to standard, and can very much confirm your content creation skills.
 * You have created a number of biographies, and I would expect that at least a few of them could be expanded to the point that they could become good or even featured articles.


 * Knowledge and helpfulness
 * I've got to say, I like your "for beginners" series of essays, which really do show that you understand the areas you work in. I'm glad to see that you try and help new editors in the AfC areas and through the feedback dashboard. I am also happy to see that you're hanging round the help desk too, somewhere we need good editors


 * Patrolling
 * With 129 edits to UAA, 71 to AIV and a good number of accurate speedies in your history, I'm more than satisfied with your patrolling habits. The only suggestion I have is using WP:TWINKLE for CSD tagging, just to make the life of reviewers easier - so they can see the auto generated speedy log. It's definitely not a necessary suggestion though.

So overall, I'm pretty impressed. I hope this gives you some points to consider in the future. Cheers! WormTT  &middot; &#32;(talk) 10:29, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I'll definitely take your suggestions on board. (I'm unable to install Twinkle on one of the two computers I edit from, hence the manual CSDs and patchy Twinkle use) Yunshui 雲&zwj;水 11:44, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Review by  Yash  t  101  

I feel so awful that I haven't yet given you one. The reason for which I m still on wiki is because of you. It is little weird to say, but your extremely kind, comforting replies and comment which were accurate didn't let my spirits down and I stayed. One of the greatest qualities are politenss and helpfulness. For the review, I really don't know that from where to start. So, I will point out briefly about your edits.

You have been sometimes patrolling pages which had the right tags. That is awesome as you probably have 100 % success rate.
 * New page patrolling

This is the best thing that I have seen in your edits. I Have seen you doing a lot of reverts. All of them were perfect and good. Vandal fighting can be one of the major things which will constitute a large number of supports in your RfA. In all the editors that I know, you are the best vandal-fighter.
 * Counter-Vandalism

Now thats also a great job that you are doing. You give them feedback about their experience stating the right thing. It is really nice to see your replies. They are helpful, solve the problem and are very very kind.
 * Welcoming New Comers - Feedback

I don't think that I have to state much here as you still help me out when I don't behave. This is one of your better qualities that you are always willing to improve and help out other editors by guiding them to the right thing and in a civil way.
 * Helping editors

Though your editors get retired, you still help them ;) (just kidding). Actually, you do a great job in that. I have seen your messages on talk pages of your editors and they all are perfect and state the right thing. I will have to say that, the message through which you indirectly asked me to get adopted by you was refrained by me. But now I feel that I should have said yes or asked you to adopt me. It would have saved few editors who later became annoyed and angry due to my constant violation of rules ;)
 * Adopt-a-user

Just before you run for adminship, make sure, you have a little more article edits. I have the same proble. Getting a article promoted to GA or A or FL or FA status or DYK expansion is not what I m talking about. A little more efforts in article space, something between 33-40 % will make wonders at your RfA.
 * Article edits

I tried to cover up everything about you. Sorry if I forgot something. You are really great, greatest for me. It will not be wrong to say that you are my WikiGodFather. I m shocked that I never saw this (I came to know about this when the bot posted a message). I really want to see you having the admin rights.

In all, you are an excellent, perfect, most diligent editor I have ever come across. Also, you are my greatest guide, my favorite editor and my Best WikiFriend :)  Yash  t  101   16:06, 17 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Wow. Thank you Yash, you're very kind. I might print this review off and frame it... Yunshui 雲&zwj;水 08:28, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Review by AndieM

I hadn't seen you around until the Downside School incident. I have to admit I was a bit scared reading the threat (I'm still a teenager) but then I saw your comment and I was relieved. You've helped me through the whole incident (and after with archiving :) ) and I hope I can put this behind me now. Thank you for your support and what you do to the project!

Just noticed you're not an admin, and I was really surprised. I feel like nominating you! AndieM   (Am I behaving?'')  15:39, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
