[edit] Drake Maijstral
Drake Maijstral (talk ยท contribs) Hello! I just started, and I would like for someone to take a look at the way that I handled a request for edit on a protect, controversial topic. I am especially interested in finding out whether others agree or disagree with my own opinion of my ability to be NPOV and stick to facts and policies. Drake Maijstral 02:25, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
Reviews
Very few edits to go off of, but I reviewed every single one (there were only 18). On talk pages, you are very cordial and contribute a lot of good stuff. I think the way you handled the controversial issue was fine, in the future, you'll be able to make the edits yourself. Since the page Fred Phelps is semi-protected, you'll have to wait until your account is four days old. I did notice that none of your edits are to the mainspace, meaning editing contenct of actual articles, instead of talk pages. Even while your account is under four days old you can edit unprotected pages. Since your new, I'd also recommend reading over the List of Policies. You don't have to pore over it, in fact, you don't even have to do anything, but I'd recommend skimming and scanning over most of the policies. I think you did a very good job with the controversial issue and with professional training in such procedures, I think you'll be an excellent editor. Useight 04:54, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Questions
- Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- I wish I could say so, but so far, I only have 2, and they are basically the same! I think that I did myself honor in keeping any of my own POV to myself, sticking to facts, and making a strong case though.
- 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?
- Actually, the reason I am wanting someone to review this is to get an idea of how my writing might be viewed to figure out if I should ever work on controversial issues in the future - which is something that I think I will be able do do very well, since I have professional training in mediation and arbitration - or if what I think of as one of my skills is not as good as I think it is.
