Wikipedia:Editor review/Ronk01

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ronk01 (talk · contribs · count) I began editing Wikipedia about five years ago as an IP. I made most of my contributions to medical articles (in real life I am a board certified cardiothoracic surgeon.) I first joined in March of this year, when I wanted to edit a semi-protected page. During the compulsory waiting period, I joined WP:MED and discovered an article that I wanted to work on, Cardiac skeleton. After a short Wikibreak, I returned, only to involve myself in a discussion over the title of epinephrine, I brought the case to mediation, discovering I discovered the Mediation Cabal, where I successfully mediated five cases. I've collaborated on Prem Rawat and other controversial articles. Additionally, I spend time reverting vandalism, and have the rollbacker and reviewer permissions. I am here to find out what the community thinks of my work, and to get some suggestions for improvement, before a possible RfA withing the next six months. Thank you in advance!

Questions

  1. What are your primary contributions to Wikipedia? Are there any about which you are particularly pleased? Why?
    Most of my early work was behind the scenes, which isn't really that big of a contribution,(though I am particularly pleased with my mediations). I am rather pleased though with the merger of Cardiac skeleton, the ongoing work at Eosinophilia, and my page creations. Of course, my 1,300 vandalism reversions are a nice touch as well.
  2. Have you been in any disputes 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?
    I have been in only one true editing dispute, on epinephrine, which I promptly took to mediation when it became clear that help was needed, though the discussion was civil at all times. I believe strongly in the dispute resolution process here on Wikipedia, and I intend to continue my commitment to civil discourse.
