[edit] Jclemens*
Jclemens (talk · contribs) I've been actively editing for a few months, around for a good bit longer than that, and would like some opinions on my development--are my conduct and contributions meeting Wikipedia Standards? What deficiencies do I display right now, that I should shore up before seeking to increase the level or scope of my contributions? Jclemens (talk) 05:29, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Questions
- Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- I've been most pleased with the edits I've made to Elric of Melnibone because another editor was constantly challenging me to find better sources, and with Whedonesque.com because that was the first time I really took what I learned and transformed a mediocre article into one that was truly and significantly better than when I began.
- 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?
- Getting reverted at first was frustrating, to be sure, but I don't believe I've been uncivil in the process of pursuing learning based on those setbacks. I got my internet hothead stage out of the way the better part of two decades ago. The more I understand Wikipedia process and policies, the less frustrated I get and the better my edits are received; as such, I expect my stress level to be manageable for the foreseeable future.

- Oh, one more bit by way of confession--I originally registered to help topic push DartMUD, but in the process became enlightened, and now I'm a general purpose editor, as my history will show.
Rodney Satrk is an oponent of Evolutionary Theory. This shoudl be clearly satted in his page, and his readers must know this. By hiding this fact you are making this page partisamn and un-balanced.

- What was in the article before you added NPOV text:
Stark published an article in 2004 criticizing Charles Darwin and Evolutionary Theory. In "Facts, Fable and Darwin", Dr. Stark criticized the “Darwinian Crusade” and suggested that governments "lift the requirement that high school texts enshrine Darwin's failed attempt as an eternal truth."[1] Stark further writes that "today it is a rare textbook or any popular treatment of evolution and religion that does not reduce 'creationism' to the simplest caricatures."[2]
- What you added:
Mr. Stark is an open enemy of Evolutionary Theory, (see below) and as such his views on all subjects must be interpreted with his religionist position in mind.
