edit summaries[edit]
Greetings! I notice you've been doing a lot of really solid work on the Princeton University article, which is great to see. However, you might want to consider adding summaries of your edits as you make them in the "edit summary" box, as it lets those of us who follow a particular article to see a quick summary of what you've added. There's information about edit summaries here. It's not a big deal if you don't use them, but it's generally considered sort of "good manners" on Wikipedia if you do. Cheers!

Psych[edit]
I see people --including me--have been rather critical. Perhaps you need to rethink, and take a much more deliberate and extensive approach. If I can help, let me know DGG (talk) 04:32, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
wikipedia nuggets from someone with similar experience[edit]
I've had a 4 year love, long period of hate, then gradual acceptance of wikipedia on a general level. I haven't written an article in about a year and a half after the holier-than-thou cabal of wikipedia overlords finally annoyed me so much my charity was obviously not welcome. Anyways, my summer jobs lack of things to do finally drew me back and I decided to write an article about my university college (University of Texas at Austin College of Communication) because not much information existed and the serach engine optimization capabilites of wikipedia will mean every potential applicant who has an internet connection will read my work and also hopefully increase the awareness of the awesome film school I'm in.
Of course nothing in life is original so I tried to follow the formatting and wording of other succesful college articles when I stumbled upon you're work and the FA review from hell. I've learned personal satisfaction is all you can hope for on wikipedia because the FA even GA process is such an anal teeth pulling affair. So to conclude, if you ever make it back to wikipedia, maybe after a year or so of cooling off, you've got a friend. Andman8 (talk) 18:48, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hey no problem. I'm pretty much fluent in the mediawiki language and more importantly in the bs that runs this place. Wikipedia is pretty much identical to communism in that it looks fantastic on paper yet unfortunately people are fallible creatures. The dirty little secret is that anyone can edit yet an elite minority much like the pigs in animal farm (I promise I'll stop with the third rate metaphors) rule with an iron fist. But the idea of Wikipedia is bulletproof. I actually started up a now defunct internet business using the wikipedia architecture but instead people owned their own pages with no exclusivity factors such as notability and were allowed to embed google ads; but alas it never caught on. O and I noticed an image of yours was deleted, basically if an image is not ported over from wikimedia commons it will be deleted even if it has iron clad licensing, again more arbitrary rules no one ever tells you about --- but I think the end result is ultimately worth it if you look at your work as public service.
O and I facebooked gyan veda and think I found you so if you get a request from a "garrett minks" feel free.
