Lincalinca (talk · contribs) I just want to know what you guys all think of my editing. This is kind of my "How's My Driving? Call 1800 EAT SHIT" sticker on my wiki-car. linca^linca 06:14, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Reviews

I reviewed some of your comments, particularly at Talk:Dream Days at the Hotel Existence and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums. I am impressed by your familiarity with the inner workings of Wikipedia and your dedication to collaborating with other users to produce excellent articles.

I have a few pointers for you.

1. Wikipedia is not censored, but if you don't need to use words like "shitload", you should maintain clean language. Actually, nobody cares. :)
2. Please use edit summaries almost all the time, instead of most of the time. You can set "my preferences" to "force" an edit summary.
3. With all your experience in writing articles about music, I would encourage you to clean up some of the deficient articles in Category:Album stubs and elsewhere that could benefit from expert attention. Some articles should be deleted; others expanded. You should become familiar with WP:MUSIC in order to understand the subject-specific notability guideline.

I wish you good luck. Shalom ^Hello 03:17, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Another review

Hey Linca! Obviously, this is a very biased review (the best kind). Firstly, I agree with Shalom's edit summary comment, although you use them almost always in the mainspace, which is good. However, you use (quite frequently) summaries such as "tweak" and "add info" - useful in some contexts, but they don't always fulfill the purpose of edit summaries, which is to fully summarise your edits so we don't have to load the diff.

{{Studio60}} is awesome - you deserved the barnstar for it, great work on that. Gah, I hate editor reviews where I don't have a shitload to say ;) Keep up the good work, and listen to Shalom, who's a much better reviewer then I am (and a bit less biased).

Questions

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

   As a graphic designer, I'm happy with how my edits way back on the respective track listings for As/Is by John Mayer went. I'm also pretty pleased with the template I made for Studio 60 (which is here), as it earned me a barnstar, and was also replicated for The OC also.

3. 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?

   Not really. At times, I'll roll my eyes, but I'm not a stresshead. One case where I've been a bit unimpressed would be the petulance with the Untitled Korn Album in July when editors insisted on adding information that was unencyclopedic and continued to add this, despite an explanation on the talk page, and each reversion of the edit was given an edit message pointing to the discussion. That was a bit disappointing, but not stressful.
