Redmarkviolinist (talk · contribs) It has been a while since my last review. I would like to know what I need to work on, and I would like to become an administrator in the future. ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ ^{Drop me a line}§ 21:04, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

1: Your articles that you have worked on are generally well-written (Battle of Marion is a decent article)

2: I feel that the thing you need to work on is your GA-Review abilities. Skimming over your Talk-page while replying to other stuff, I've noticed that you've received a lot of constructive feedback concerning reviews that certain editors felt weren't entirely accurate or representative of what they felt to be the case (me included, as of twenty minutes ago).

That said, however, I highly appreciate your enthusiasm for contributing to wikipedia. Just be certain to be slightly slower & more careful when reviewing GA-Nomination Articles. Cheers! Cam (Chat) 04:11, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your review. I've started to slow down in the GA nomination. I personally thought that the one that you brought up was fine aside from the Lead section. Cheers, ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ ^{Drop me a line}§ 04:17, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

1: You have been a frequent and valuable editor at Military History WikiProject, and have set a high standard for the rest of us.

2: If you want to become an admin you should spend a little more time fighting vandalism.

3: You have been a good adopter and i would advise you to carry this on.

Good luck if you decide to go for administrator! Gaia Octavia Agrippa ^Talk | _Sign 12:22, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

I really feel the need to give you an honest review here, so here goes.

• Creating this was a bad idea, transcluding it was even worse.
• [1] Don't use "speedy" unless it satisfies WP:CSD, and don't close Afds in favor of delete unless you're an admin. See WP:NAC. There's a few other troubling AfDs and CSDs, but I won't mention those specifically.
• Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians under 18 - Absolutely terrible idea. Privacy violation, pointlessness, etc.

Otherwise your work seems good. Keep trying to get articles to a high standard! Nousernamesleft^{copper, not wood} 22:26, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

• Oh, and your GA reviews recently have been questionable. I no longer review GAs, but you seem to be improving. Suggestion: this script provides excellent results. Nousernamesleft^{copper, not wood} 22:29, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Questions

1. Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?

   That would either have to be the Battle of Appomattox Station, or Battle of Marion. I have spent quite a bit of time on Military History WikiProject, creating and assessing articles.

2. 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?

   Unfortunately, I have. Just a little while ago, a user named Cimas attacked me, and put a lot of prejudice in about my age. The full details can be found at User:Redmarkviolinist/Stress.
