Reviews

  • I would recommend more mainspace edits. I see you are the nominator of Switzerland's FAC, and I think that's the article to start with contributing more content. The English Wikipedia really benefits from the contributions of the users in non-English speaking countries to counter systematic bias and expand coverage of those topics. Mainspace edits are also often an important criterion for RfAs. Improve Switzerland, take it through peer review as the FAC comments suggest, and try to improve its daughter articles as well. Geography of Switzerland needs work, the economy daughter article needs sources, Politics of Switzerland is extremely underreferenced, etc., etc. These are just suggestions, of course, but they are probably your best bet for improving your chances on this point for an RfA. Your vandal-fighting is very good, but mainspace editting will also make you familiar with the content-related policy that you need to know for adminship as well, Good luck! -Fsotrain09 17:13, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Questions

  1. Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
    I really have no contributions that I have enjoyed. However, I feel immense pleasure when I warn a Vandal and I can't wait for the mop to be in my hands. The Trolls will all be massacred!
  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?
    I find that several users take the rules a tad bit too seriously. I also hated the war I had with Raul654 on the fact that the World Cup was JUST the world cup and not the "World Cup Finals" which I found referred to the final rather than the entire game". I was most displeased with DJclayworth's highly arrogant nature towards me when I joined. I felt very offended by such behaviour, especially by an adult, who are always nagging the youth to behave and be polite and then they can't act civil themselves (My parents included. This message is not to be and/or should not be considered to be directed towards the Wikipedia user DJclayworth in any way. By the way, I am a teenager!)
  3. Do you think you have what it takes to be Wikipedia's youngest sysop?

I wonder who added this message! Frankly I would be rather flattered if I was nominated for adminship, but would I really have what it takes? I would like to see what others think... Booksworm Talk to me! 16:10, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
