  • Hello Jasrocks. you bring a lot of enthusiasm and energy to the project which is great, as well as being friendly. Your articles do a good job in WP:NPOV, much better than most stuff I checked on the AFL project. This edit to Ken McGregor has a few examples of what could be [1] tightened up a bit. Don't user contractions like "wasn't" in the encyclopedia and use formal language, rather than "stats" and "footy". As long as you avoid hyperbole like "star-studded midfield", "exquisite skills", etc you should be fine, and I understand that in football, it isn't as statistically rigid as in cricket and swimming, where I write, but if you include what are considered to be "widely accepted judgments", then you should probably source them to an article written by an analyst - eg, see Yuvraj Singh. If you want to diversify a bit more, then you can go to WP:AWNB for the general Aussie stuff and also maybe have a look at WP:ACOTF. An easy way to get stuck in if you aren't interested in politics, history or those kinds of things is to write up an article about your suburb, and those surrounding it.

Questions

  1. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
    I am pleased with quite a few of the articles that I have created, especially in Footy. I think the best article I have made so far on a footy player is a page I created today on Che Cockatoo-Collins. I am also proud of my Brett Maher 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?
    A couple of weeks ago, I was blocked from editing because I used Internode. I was really pissed at first on this, but then found out that it was an autoblock, not just a block on me.
