ASDFGHJKL (talk · contribs) Honestly, I would like to see how I have been doing. I've been here for nearly a year, and I want to see, well, if I'm a crappy editor, or a great one. Thanks to anyone who replies to this. ASDFGHJKL=Greatest Person Ever+Coolest Person Ever 20:29, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Reviews

You're still in the process of learning how Wikipedia works. You write on your userpage that you've created three articles, but two have (correctly) been deleted. I still don't think you have a solid grasp of the article inclusion criteria. The most common sticking points are Wikipedia:Notability and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. WP:NPOV and WP:ATT are also important.

I found out about the cow tipping caption dispute. I think the "unsuspecting victim" caption was an innocuous joke, but I understand the view that it's unencyclopedic tomfoolery. The most important thing in disputes like this is not to make a big fuss about them. You can find more than a hundred examples of even sillier edit wars at WP:LAME, so you're in good company.

I recommend that you do more article writing, but make sure that it's to articles which should exist. To this end, I suggest you look into joining WikiProjects (or becoming more active in them). A good WikiProject will organize articles that need to be created or improved. Once you have that basic foundation, you can begin to write, and usually what you produce will be of value to other readers.

I wish you good luck. YechielMan 00:20, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Questions

Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?

Personally, I'm proud of the article I created, The Italian Job: Turbo Coaster. It is a small page, but I think that I've made a pretty good article, for what little info there is about. I am also pleased with all the vandalism fighting that I've done in the past couple months and all of those small edits to all of the unknown articles.
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?

Well, I did have a small conflict with Chowbok. It was over the Cow tipping page, and how a caption the the picture said, "An unsuspecting victim". I thought this was way too humorus for Wikipedia, but every single time I removed it, he'd replace it.We had a, well I guess you could say "disagreement" on our talk pages about the caption. Well, the whole thing resulted in a large discussion on the caption. It was left alone, and since then, I've kept my distance from that article.

Now, I try even harder to not start arguments. If someone tries to start somthing with me, I'll just try hard to not get into an argument.

Additional Questions from Dfrg.msc:

Borrowed from Glen (talk · contribs), I'm sure he wont mind. These should test you editing skills, and show if you have any weaknesses which you can work on. So, just write your answer next to the Question. Good luck.
