[edit] xDanielx

xDanielx (talk · contribs) Hi, I'm xDanielx. I've technically been editing since mid-2006, but started contributing substantially only after I registered this account in July. I want to see how I'm doing in the views of others, and what I can do to improve my editing. — xDanielx T/C\R 02:06, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Review by User:Master of Puppets Hello there, Daniel! Looking through your contributions, I must say I'm quite impressed; your mainspace work is of high quality, and quite thorough, too. You've also participated at WP:AN and in the deletion process, which suggests a very well-rounded contribution tree. Your cleanup work is excellent. There's basically nothing here that is bad; basically, keep goin' strong. However, one note; try not to avoid WP:AFD just because of some heated debates from the past. I'm not saying you must participate in AfD, but the remedy to a heated situation is to headbutt it. With a cool head, of course. Sorry, I thought that image was funny (my mind is twisted), but in all seriousness, I find it works to be calm and collected regardless of what happens. Sometimes consensus goes against you, but it is for the betterment of the enyclopaedia, after all. Anyway, great work regardless of minor blemishes, and I think you have a strong future ahead of you. Cheers! Master of Puppets Care to share? 21:54, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Questions

  1. Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
    I've created a handful of articles (see my userpage), though they're mostly fairly short. I cleaned up list of ethics topics, which was fun. I've rescued or helped rescue some articles that were in poor shape, like this and this (admittedly not the best articles, but at least they've been improved). Recently, I've been doing a lot of article assessment (with minor improvements along the way) and trying to save Ludwig.
  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?
    When I started out I got myself into some heated AfD debates, which I've learned to avoid to some degree. Some time ago, I was involved with some serious content disputes surrounding the eComXpo article, but I managed to stay out of the heat there. More recently, I expressed grievances over the ban of A.Z. (a decision which I still regard with dissatisfaction), which drew some negative responses. I may be missing something, but I think that's the gist of it.
