Request an editor review
Before requesting a review, please understand the following:
Shortcut:
  • Editor review is a process that allows users to have their behavior and contributions to Wikipedia evaluated by peers, who will provide constructive feedback on areas for improvement. Anybody may request a review, regardless of their tenure at Wikipedia.
  • While an editor may remove comments about them that appear to be off-topic or simply personal attacks, it is important to remember that the editor review process may produce comments that the editor may not like or personally agree with, and the editor being reviewed should make every attempt to use this collaborative process to communicate with others. Editors should not refactor comments they dislike. These should either be simply removed or discussed.
  • Administrators requesting a review of their administrative actions should see administrator review.
  • This page frequently gets backlogged, so requests may wait up to several weeks for a response. If you have less than 300 edits (or your last request was within the last 3 months), your request may be removed without notice.
  • Please consider reviewing another editor when you request a review
  • Users requesting feedback on their newly created article should do so at requests for feedback.
If you would like to be reviewed, please follow the steps below:
  1. Create a subpage using the box below, replacing USERNAME with your username. Please make sure there is no space after your username, as this makes it hard for reviewers to reach your request.
  2. Do not save the page yet! Follow the instructions in the box above the request page. Please remember to fill in the requested fields.
  • Optional, but highly recommended: You may put the {{Editor review}} template or the {{Editor review sticker}} template on your user page to advertise the review page.
  • Optional: It is possible to add a userbox onto your User page (after the review is finished) by placing {{User Editor review}} at your user box section on your User page. Instructions on how to use templates may be found here.
  • Optional: As only admins can see your deleted contributions, these admins have volunteered to perform editor reviews focussing on deleted contributions (this will probably be of most interest to newpage patrollers)
  • Optional, but highly recommended There is a large backlog at Editor Review, so take some time to review some of your fellow Wikipedians.

[edit] Klilidiplomus*

Klilidiplomus (talk · contribs · count) I've been contributing to Wikipedia for more than 2 months. After 4000+ edits, I'd like to hear what others think of me. ─═Klilidiplomus █ Talk═─ 18:46, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    Cleaning up vandalism and spam, and tagging pages for speedy deletion. I'm especially pleased about my CSD work, because I have managed to apply the proper criteria most of the time.
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    None that I know of. I prefer to stay away from content disputes.


Reviews

  • You may have heard this somewhere else already, but if you intend to run for adminship in future, you will definitely need more than quantity of edits to get you through. Since you have worked on CSD, consider chipping in on deletion discussions and other maintenance processes, writing short articles or even making minor improvement on new articles on New Page Patrol. Good luck! - Mailer Diablo 11:10, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Alpha Quadrant*

Alpha Quadrant (talk · contribs · count) It has been about five months since my lasts editor review. I would like to know how I have been doing, and what I need to improve on. Thank you Alpha_Quadrant (talk) 22:45, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    As of late, I have primarily worked at Articles for Creation, Requested Moves, Possibly unfree files/Files for Deletion, and Articles for Deletion. On occasion, I have assisted in dispute resolution. When I am not active in those areas, I am usually working on link rot cleanup, disambiguating, recategorizing, adding references, and minor copyediting. I mainly work on Unites States related organization articles. I have written a handful of articles, a few of which I took to DYK, but nothing near featured or good article quality.
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    I have only been the subject of one major dispute since my last editor review. Back in October several editors raised concerns over early AfD closures that I had made. I could have most definitely handled it better than I did.

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    I think all of those contributions improved the project.
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    Over two years ago, I misinvoked WP:EVULA (felt that I was right) in continuing to revert what I felt was vandalism, and got blocked for it[1] without notice. The duration of the block was 28 minutes. That block taught me to think twice before making a second revert, and to instead follow the WP:DR path. I have occasionally come into contact with users who I felt were not here to help write an encyclopedia, and I have been civil while encouraging them to either stay and be civil or leave.

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    I am mainly a reviewer and a new page and help page patroller. I mostly write articles in and contribute to things related to fungi, plants and animals. I have developed a few many stubs like Common eland ( I am particularly pleased with it for I have done a lot to improve it from a stub to a B-class article ) and many others into better articles. I have removed vandalism and deleted improper articles often, too. I like things like userboxes and templates ( you know that seeing my userpage ). But, over all, I have always loved Wikipedia and simply help it as much as I can.
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    I have never been in any edit war or dispute till today. If I ever face a war ( though I do not expect I will ) I would try my best to end it and pacify the user(s). I would contact an experienced user or protect the page if the war persists. I have made many a mistake mostly when I was new here - like making unnecessary edits, uploading copyrighted files and so on, if you count these as disputes.


Reviews

  • Tip : Try to use your edit summary more frequently. Doesn't have to be in detail, shorthands (like 'expand', 'sp' or 'reply') is perfectly okay. - Mailer Diablo 22:34, 31 December 2011 (UTC)


Please add more comments! I want to be reviewed, please add whatever you think would be proper.

LikeLakers2 (talk · contribs · count) Hi, I'm LikeLakers2. I wasn't sure about whether I wanted to be reviewed on this page, but after I read over some already-existing reviews that have been answered, I decided to take a shot at it. LikeLakers2 (talk | Sign my guestbook!) 18:49, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    I am usually patrolling Category:Wikipedia pages with incorrect protection templates and WP:RFPP. I also have reverted vandalism occasionally, and I used to be active on WP:AIV. (I'm not active on AIV anymore; I don't exactly remember why) I am generally one of the more lenient editors of WP; i.e. I sometimes, though not always, let a user off without warning them the first time. (I still revert their vandalism, however)
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    Yes, I have, actually. I try not to go too far, while trying to stay calm (and I never am intentionally impolite) in even the rudest/worst of situations.

Additional information: I have a somewhat-self-induced ban on myself, where I am not allowed to edit the userspace and user-talkspace of any user other than my own, unless it is for reverting vandalism, or simply striking up a conversation with a user. I also have somewhat a good sense of humor, though I am not sure if I have ever expressed that directly on-wiki.

TRLIJC19 (talk · contribs · count) I'm TRLIJC19. I've had rough patches on WP including 3 blocks for edit warring but I'd really like to get back on track. TRLIJC19 (talk) 20:46, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    My primary contributions are to Grey's Anatomy articles. I am a member of WP:WPGA and really try to help out with them. I am very pleased with the article I just wrote, Rebecca Pope. I added photos but they were removed due to CR violations. I would like to know how to add photos to her page without them being removed. I also like to work with WP:GAN.
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    Yes I've been in several. I used to deal with it by partaking in edit wars but recently I've talked about it to the user directly. In the future I would continue to talk to the other user and try and work it out.

  • 3 blocks for edit-warring is an indication that you will need to improve on how you work along with other editors - co-operation with other editors is important. The talk page should be the first stop if you get into a dispute, not the revert button. Keep up your good work on the GAs. - Mailer Diablo 22:31, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Nolelover

Nolelover (talk · contribs · count) Well, its been a little over a year (and 7k edits) since I became really "active" on the 'pedia, and I'm realizing that I've definitely been slowing down lately - if not in actual contribs, then in the amount of time I put into this site. This isn't a curtain call by any means, but I would like to see what other editors think of my work here in the last few months. I really can't remember how and when exactly I got started on WP, but it was working with User:Vyeh on Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri that first got me hooked, and where I really realized the amount of work that goes into this site. Since then I've started a couple stubs, patrolled many a page and been the butt of many geek jokes from my RL friends, but I've loved (almost) every minute of it. All comments, whether glowing or absolutely damning are appreciated, but please note that I have no interest in RfA so there's no need to frame your reviews that way. This is not a precursor to my attempting to pass that great institution, but simply an honest request for any and all feedback. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 14:30, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Per my request to another user to review me, I am updating this page. It's now past a year and a half, and closer to nine thousand edits... Nolelover Talk·Contribs 16:22, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
I should also note that I have an alt account. --> NLinpublic (talk) 18:00, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    Other then the aforementioned SMAC, which went from this to GA, I've never done any major content work. Obviously I've worked on many articles, but I seriously doubt I've added more then a couple paragraphs of prose to any of them. Like I say on my userpage, I'm better at getting article from really bad to OK, rather then OK to GA/FA. However, I am happy with the work I've done on articles like Ehsan Sehgal, not because of any major content work I've done, but because of the work that goes into teaching a new editor the ropes. I'd also like to think I do a decent job at NPP; my CSD log, which only shows the latest month (where I became more inactive anyway) is here, but that's probably fairly representative of my overall work there. In the Project namespace, I am extremely happy with the work I have done at WP:WWF, where I am assistant coordinator, and currently the day-to-day manager with a couple of other editors inactive for various reasons. Other then that, I tend to gnome around, fixing whatever crops up in my path. I also do a bit of College Football related editing.
    (Added at 16:22, 29 December 2011 (UTC)) Note that since this was written, I have resigned at WWF, although I'm still active there.
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    Well, as much as I would like to be like other editors on this page and say that I haven't been in any, but that I would work with the other editor to achieve consensus (linked, ofc) on the talk page, I've been around the block a few too many times for that. I can't say that I've really been a participant in any major editing disputes, but I have seen firsthand how hard it can be too work with someone when you believe their mindset is wrong. However, I looked for something to show how I do operate in those situations, and I found this one in my talk archives (second diff) and this one. There is probably also something in the SMAC archive between me and User:Dream Focus, and there are a few things in my second talk archive that I won't link individually. I have done some minor mediation/resolution/been the bad news bearer, and that landed me in rather hot water here. (Note that I am not the editor Pedro is referring to in his edit summary, and here are more diffs. All this revolved around User:Guoguo12's ill-fated RfA.) I think that's about it on that front.
    (Added at 16:22, 29 December 2011 (UTC)) A much better (and far more recent) example occurred at Ehsan Sehgal, Ehsan Mehmood Khan and Babar Malik. There's more discussion at the article's talk pages, my talk, Ehsan Sehgal's (the user referenced above) talk page, and the talks of a couple Ips. The gist of it was that these and other Ips and a couple registered editors began reverting and removing info on those pages, and started an edit war with Sehgal and I. To be entirely honest, I did not handle that well. I'm pretty sure I broke 3rr and I should have asked for another editor to look in sooner; I'm just a little to personally involved with Sehgal to make entirely unbiased statements.

[edit] Fltyingpig

Fltyingpig (talk · contribs · count) I have been editing for around six months and I would like to know about what other Wikipedians think of me. pluma Ø 04:48, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    My primary contributions have been reverting vandalism, correcting typos, regulating redlinks, and doing other wikignomish activities
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    I got a page I written turned into a redirect page without consensus from an other editor with around 80,000 edits when I was still a signator, but I didn't know what to do about it, so I just got into a big edit-war, but since then I haven't got into any edit wars because I have been pretty timid and wikignomish because of that.


Reviews

  • Review by Trevj:
    • Note: Further reviews welcomed. Below is my first ever editor review, so the additional comments of others would be useful, please. Thanks.
    1. Userpage is informative and organised.
    2. Talk shows civility.
    3. Edit summaries are welcomed, but could in some instances be more meaningful, e.g. this could have stated reword: 'to a zoo and some other attractions' -> 'to some atractions like zoos', although this is a matter of personal preference. There's also no need to state "I [...]" because they're your edits we know it's you who's done them!
    4. Your fights against vandalism are noted.
I hope the above is useful. Happy editing! --Trevj (talk) 14:54, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Review by Mirokado:
    • My first review too...
    1. You are clearly enthusiastic and motivated to make high quality contributions
    2. I also noticed the edit summaries but would suggest differently from Trevj: this just illustrates what he said about personal preference. It is excellent that you always provide summaries but they could be a bit less verbose. I don't think there is much point in repeating the content change verbatim, that is what we have diffs for. You could ask yourself "how can I say concisely what I have done and/or why so that a reviewer can decide whether to look at my change in more detail and will know what to expect from a diff?" In the example above, I think "rephrase for neutral POV" would have been fine
    3. In addition to any comments here there are also various sections on your talk page which provide ongoing feedback on your contributions. I hope you are "paying attention" to what has been said there
    4. You mention one early problem with an edit war. Please don't be discouraged by occasional setbacks like that, they help us to learn, so while being careful to avoid edit warring do not be too diffident either when considering a change you think is necessary.
I hope you continue to enjoy editing. --Mirokado (talk) 13:30, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

    I have very good CSD work and i have started my contributions to wiki with this edit which are usually done by the beginner and have added to this article with this edit which is constructive and then i have taken a break for long time after my reentry to wiki had quite good edits 1
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    Probably not!But i don't know.But i have warned several times by s/he for my misuse of the anti vandal tool because my brother who is blocked for a while in commons and i have over come this issue recently with the help of Quadell of course this is my fault letting him to go through my account.Never loose my cool if i get disputed with another editor if it gets too far then i prefer going to ANI who always have there reviews or else contacting a wiki admin personally to help/intervene to make balance for unnecessary dispute,lighten the mood, defuse conflicts, and make Wikipedia a better place to be.

  • Roh G is an enthusiastic Wikipedian who wants to work well with others to improve Wikipedia. As a beginner, he still has much to learn about the way Wikipedia works, but he seems willing to do so. He had problems with someone else using his account, but he asked for help and the problem seems to have gone away. He did a few GA nomination reviews, which helps with the backlog -- he wasn't terribly good at it, since he's just starting out, but he seems to take suggestions very well. When he found himself over his head in a review, he asked for help appropriately. When I asked him to wait before doing more reviews, he was happy to hear the advice. When I brought the Manual of Style to his attention, he linked it from his userpage and used it in a review. He seems to have the right attitude, and is learning quickly. – Quadell (talk) 12:58, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
Quadell! thanks for your review.Positive review really makes me happy and to work out more on those which I haven't work on the other part of wiki.This brings me more energy to me.regardsRohG ??· 13:45, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

    Fortunately, I have not been in any editing disputes or edit wars. If I was in one, I would calmly explain my stance on my edits and collaborate with other editors on what everyone thinks is right for the article.

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    My primary contributions to wikipedia include creating articles related to photovoltaics and sometimes related to tourist spots in and around Ooty. I also do a bit of vandalism fighting occasionally by patrolling recent changes. I am particularly pleased with my contributions to and organizing them into Template:Photovoltaics, because of the effort I put in. I'm also proud of the work I put in Pale Blue Dot to have it listed as a good article and my DYKs and ITNs listed here
  2. Have you been in editing disputes 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? If you have never been in an editing dispute, explain how you would respond to one.
    All I can remember is here, which reflected here and here, but I'd rather call it misunderstanding than a dispute. And I believe I was pretty cool throughout. I wouldn't be unnecessarily losing my cool if I get into a dispute with another editor provided it doesn't get personal. I understand that both sides of most disputes which are approached civilly support improving wikipedia content but with different views and it would be unnecessary to heat up.
