I bounce around projects a lot - some things I've stuck with for longer than most include AfC reviewing, recent change patrolling, new page patrol (mostly redirects), typo_team/moss, adding short descriptions and sometimes even writing articles. Lately I've been working a lot on dog breed articles. You can see my AfC log, deletion stats (XfD stats, CSD log) and NPP log at the linked pages.
If I get something wrong or there's a problem with one of my edits, please let me know! And feel free to ping me again or drop a note on my talk page if I haven't replied to something for more than two days. My memory is short and there's a lot of things on- and off-wiki competing for my attention. I do tend to alternate bursts of activities with long breaks, so I might be unavailable.
If I reviewed your AfC draft...

...feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. However, you may get a faster response asking another editor or leaving a message at the AfC help desk, since I'm not always very active. You may also want to take a look at User:Rusalkii/AfC source guidance, which is meant to address common issues with AfC drafts. Please do not email me unless the problem can't be discussed publicly.
Note that to be fair to all submitters I do not review or re-review drafts on request. We usually have a long backlog and it may take a long time to get to your draft: please be patient, all reviewers are doing this for free in their spare time.
If I reviewed your COI edit request...
[edit]...feel free to ping me for followup questions or further requests, but my reviewing one of your requests doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to continue reviewing all followups. I tend to review in bursts and then drop reviewing for a while. In some cases I may also review only part of a request (usually the straightforward one). In that case I try to make it clear that I will not necessarily get back to it but sometimes forget, sorry! Other editors should always feel free to jump in on "my" reviews.
Unfortunately there is often a long wait especially for long, complicated, or controversial requests - please remember that we are all volunteers doing this in our spare time. To increase the chance of a fast review, I recommend splitting your request into small pieces, submitting potentially controversial, promotional or otherwise difficult to check requests separately from simple updates and corrections, formatting your requests with before and after diffs, and citing every change.
There are currently 89 requests in Category:Wikipedia conflict of interest edit requests.
Did you know...
[edit]
that the Princess of Xiaohe, a 3,800-year-old mummy, was so well preserved that her eyelashes are still intact?- that the southernmost worm species, Scottnema lindsayae, reproduces best at temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F)?
- that Pulaski's Masterpiece, billed as the "world's most valuable dog", disappeared without a trace in 1953?
- that while reviewers generally praised The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs, one reviewer complained that the author was "so nice about his colleagues that it makes you long for a juicy academic vendetta"?
