Reviews

  • Your edits look good. I clicked on some random talk edits, and they were respectful, even when you disagreed with someone, which is awesome. You've been reverting vandalism and leaving appropriate warnings on talk pages, also awesome. You have very good use of edit summaries. You participate in XFD. You help people at the Reference Desk. It looks like you handled the prod stuff that [email protected] brings up below fine: you prodded the article (which of course I can't see), and no one removed the tag. You left the appropriate prod warnings on the user's talk page. You're like wikipedia's dream come true. The only thing I notice is this: Your edit count is very low, at around 300 when I checked. If you were to seek adminship, most !voters would probably take issue with such a low count. They will probably also want to see higher talk edits and wiki and wikitalk edits. So I'd urge you to keep up the awesome work on everything you're doing. (or even step it up, if you can!) If you decide to request adminship in a few months after you've got a couple thousand edits under your belt, you'll be a shoo in. delldot | talk 06:56, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • As one of the people whose several contributions have lately been deleted by this person, well, all that I can say is that I'm not happy. One of the key points about Wikipedia is that it expresses what a worldwide community of users believe to be useful content. And unless there is an exceptionally good reason to remove anything you should NOT assume that you have the right to remove it. As the guidelines say, "Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia." It's a reference. Subject-matter experts put stuff there, and others contribute to it or edit it, and the inevitable spammers come and go. What we emphatically do NOT need are "censors" who call themselves "editors." If you delete someone else's content but do not put something better in its place, you are a censor, not an editor. Begone! — Preceding unsigned comment added by [email protected] (talkcontribs) 24 December 2006 16:13 (UTC)
I don't have the power to delete. I prod-ed two articles of yours that were short and seemed to be just definitions, and hadn't been expanded in some time. I placed a friendly warning on your talk page. Some one else came along later and made the deletion as no objections had been raised. Mishatx 03:36, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Questions

  1. Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
    Answer: World's Largest Texas Flag and Blair Cherry made DYK, and I'm probably most proud of Blair Cherry – I did a fair bit of research and set out to make a good-quality article (not necessarily a good article).
  2. 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?
    Answer Why would I get stressed over Wikipedia? It's not worth that.
