Well your contributions are good and your helping make wikipedia a better place but one thing that worries me is that you may have contracted editcountitis, which as the joke goes is fatal. I noticed that make many small edits to the same page just to get a small diference ([1][2][3][4][5]), I would recomend judical daily use of the preview button.

P.S. Frogive all my spelling errors, I am on a computer with out fire fox and its trusty spellchecker. -Ĭ₠ŴΣĐĝё 01:25, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

  1. Right off the bat please make a conscious effort to create edit summaries all the time. Also check the minor edit box when appropriate. Even in your User space. If you skip them there, you get in a bad habit.
  2. Learn about DEFAULTSORT. Your edit here could have been easier, like this. Note that is a colon (:) in the center, not pipe (|). Also you omitted either method of cat sorting here (been fixed since).
  3. Navigation templates can be a good thing, but here they have overwhelmed the article. In this case the lowest level navigation box could have an embedded link at the bottom to the higher level nav topic and omit the rest of the boxes. Also making the nav box less than 100% wide looks better to my eye.

Questions

  1. Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
    I am pleased by my work on Navagational Templates and Userboxes, and corrections.
  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 recently had a dispute over the Longest Autograph Book. At the time I didn't know that much about autograph books so I thought I could make a longest autograph book. Luckily ANNAfoxlover brought it to my attention. I just thought changing the description would do it but it didn't. So I moved it to be my personal Autograph page.
