are - can they get on with others? do their actions suggest problems down the track? do they understand policy, can they understand the reasons behind the policies (often key to ensuring the spirit and not strictly the letter is enforced) and can they pick good edits from bad ones? I have not specifically reviewed your contributions but if you or others can provide a reasonable collection of recent diffs to demonstrate these points, I think you'd go a long way to convincing me and others to vote for you. In general I have seen nothing that concerns me in the last couple of months. Be careful with sense of humour as others have said as a joke in Australian English may be an insult to a non-English speaker unfamiliar with the idiom (look at a current AN/I for example with a Dutch user claiming someone threatened to kill him when they were just using a time-worn cliche.)

important, but you probably have what most people are looking for. You are well-versed in several areas. Plus you have a cool name that shows that you understand science well! I would support you if I saw you come up on RfA, except if people came up with some damning diffs. Keep up the good work. Keeping a check on your sense of humor is unfortunately important. People have a tendancy of taking humorous comments wrong because they are not expecting humor. I've both given and received humor that have been taken the wrong way. I try to be polite and gracious instead of humourous.
106:
still, just to see which way the policy trends are going these days. Obviously the article-writing stufff is going awesomely and it's all improved mightily. Keep a check on the sense of humour and remember that you can take a joke too far if you're not careful, and if the other person has humour failure. ;) ~
316:, both of which I thought I handled OK. Of late, I've been doing a lot of GA reviewing and dealing with sometimes disgruntled editors that way, but I'm not easily stressed around here. Oh, and on Commons I've blocked a vandal or two and gotten some angry emails, but meh :) 01:33, 21 December 2007 (UTC) 137:
The main things I look for when reviewing or when voting in an RfA are generally speaking non-technical. I'm basically looking for good behaviour, good judgement, restraint when needed and a tendency to not pour fuel on fires, and clear explanations of positions. The key things I look for in an admin

Hey H2O. Since you say you're thinking of running again, I wanted to look through your contribs specifically for article writing, a concern brought up in your last RfA. You've been doing a great deal of writing, but you seem to have slowed down with the vandal reverting and AIV reporting. Try to pick

to re-add the material, but that the discussion was going nowhere. And then I saved this page. Throughout the entire discussion, I believe I remained civil, stuck to policy, and didn't attempt to bite or offend the newcomer - simply explain to them why their contribution, in its current form, wasn't
231:
Feel free to respond (that's why we do it here and not at RfA, so that by the time an RfA's up and running you're appropriately prepared and have already answered some of the points). Always have the option of taking it to the talk page of the review if it's taking up too much space or getting onto

Our exchanges have been positive. You have the edit count should easily meet everyone's minimum count standard. Your good and featured articles demonstrate that you care about the project and that you definitely have writing skills. You've done several DYK articles. While a broad experience base is

Blah blah blah, run for adminmnnmn I would support, actually I'm nominating? Didn't know about that plan but I hear that's how it's going. ;) If you don't want to do anti-vandal stuff, don't bother, plenty of other people do it. Doesn't hurt, of course. Might want to have a look around CSD and AfD

that up. Also, you might want to do some more CSD tagging and AfD work. You seem to have addressed the writing concern amazingly, but have left some admin-related areas. You are a hardworking, determined editor. Barring mistakes of Vandalbot on wheels proportions, You'll have my support. Happy
56:. Once again, I'm just looking for general feedback - if you want to RfA orientate that'd be fine, but I also would like some feedback on my editing habits, etc. Yeah, I'm sure the experienced reviewers will have some idea of what I'm talking about :) 410: 352: 305:
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?
232:
topics not envisaged by the review. My stance is that I'll be happy to support if i see more evidence, and I haven't seen anything that would make me oppose since the last one.

I wasn't initially going to respond here, but since I'm in somewhat of a dispute now I figure I'd bring up some diffs so I don't forget them. I

Of those FA's that "you've worked on", can you point out the diffs that would be helpful to evaluate the extent of your contribution to them?

Yes, several, although I don't really get too stressed. Most recently, there was an image dispute on

I don't mean to canvass or anything, just a note that the RfA is currently...well...up. And running.
