User:Spittlespat/edit review

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Below right down how you think my editing skill is on the 1 - 10 star list! Do not count my talk edits, thought please also rate my edits on how well I edit my userpage!--Spittlespat (talk) 00:00, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Looking through some of your edits at random, when editing articles, be sure to avoid using the word "you", as it does not sound very encyclopedic. Also, your editing of your userpage is fine, but maybe spend more time working on articles and less time on your userpage now that you have it up and running.

Just a note here - although you do absolutely have the right to remove posts from your edit review, it doesn't really look good. That actually kind of defeats the purpose of an edit review. You know...like Sarah Palin resisting an investigation into certain parts of her political activities, as I suppose you've heard.
And nobody hates you. We're just expressing our POV, kid. The wiki can be a cruel world indeed...but it can also be your closest friend. Please don't take this message the wrong way...I hope I didn't WP:BITE?La Pianista (TCS) 04:52, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
In addition to what Pianista was saying, responding to the messages left by others, looks far more proffesional and mature, than simply deleting them. If you want to consider being an admin in the future, people will scoure through your contributions and subpages, trying to find faults within you. If they catch wind of you deleting 'unconstructive' comments on this page, they'll think that you have poor people skills. These may seem trivial, but can bite you in the long run.

One more comment: Would you consider applying for a real editor review sometime? —La Pianista (TCSR) 21:30, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
All right, I suppose I can give you a review:
Userpage:8
It's very cute, but you can make it even better. :) Some grammatical mistakes are there, too.
Edits:5
Most of your edits are on user talk pages or to your own userspace. As many others are saying (Blooded Edge, Chamal [I think]), it would be better if you contributed more in the mainspace.
Interaction with other editors:6
You are very well-intentioned when you offer help to others, but be careful when giving out help before others have asked. Some may take it the wrong way.
Hope this answered your question, —La Pianista (TCS) 20:04, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

hmm... I'd say 8 for your userpage (there still are spelling mistakes) and 6 for your edits. I want to see your name coming up often in the recent changes list, and I don't want to see the minor edit sign too often. And yes, I know that I'm being very cheeky saying this when I only joined wikipedia two weeks ago!! TopGearFreak Talk 17:31, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
