HammerHeadHuman (talk · contribs) It's always good to see what others think. I, of course, think all of my edits are flawless, you, and the public at large, may not. - HammerHeadHuman (talk)(work) 04:19, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Reviews

  • It is good that you revert vandalism when you notice it and also warn the user appropriately. Also, thanks for informing editors when you propose a deletion of an article that they've worked on. Nice work on the Thomas Dixon, Jr. article. The referencing is well done, with only a little room for improvement yet. You've neutralized the tone of the article a great deal as compared to its state before your work. The writing is very good; I only noticed (and fixed) a couple of grammar errors that I think you just overlooked. There are a couple of sentences that you start with the word but. One of them seems helped by such a use, the other does not. One reason to begin a sentence with the word but is a need to draw extra attention to the difference being introduced in the new clause. You really used the comments at the peer review for all they were worth. I think you addressed all of them. I checked out your user page. I know editors have differing opinions on appropriate content for a user page, so take this next point for improvement in that context — it seems to me that there is a bit too much on your user page other than material that would aid in the creation of an encyclopedia (for example, time-zone userboxes would be helpful in letting me know when I should expect you to respond to messages; language userboxes let me know that you can help out with certain translations of sources or other language wikis; sushi userboxes aren't so useful). You don't have to change this, but it's something to think about. I see you're involved with stub-sorting. I encourage you to continue this, or when it gets boring, find another tedious (but needed) task to help out with. It's nice when there a lot of people doing a little bit of work like this. Your contributions at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion and mediations are certainly worthwhile — not simply keep, or delete votes, but actual arguments for your position... good! I like the position you took at Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2007-05-01_Walther_P22 in trying to ensure that all parties felt that their points had been heard. In summary, keep up the good editing. I don't actually have any points for improvement for you as regards your editing, other than inviting you into other areas of Wikipedia that need assistance. There's WP:COIN, for example, that has quite a backlog. Keep hitting that random article button and find some more articles that you'd like to improve like the Thomas Dixon, Jr. article. We need your help! Sancho 05:40, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Questions

  1. Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
    I guess my changes to Thomas Dixon, Jr. are my favorite. I put a lot of time into that article, and I think it has improved vastly. I am especially pleased because I found the article through a random page search. I also like my userpage (but I guess that's the point).
  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?
    Most people I have met have been rather cordial. There have been a few disputes, notably the deletion of List of people with the first name Julie, but everyone makes good points, and a consensus is generally reached. See also Talk:Julie (given name).
