PiRSquared17 (talk · contribs) I am not going to have a request for adminship (as it would fail), but I would like to know what I can do to become a better contributor to the Simple English Wikipedia. πr2 02:00, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

- Dear PiRSquared, your warm enthusiasm for this project is delightful and contagious, and the devotion you have for it is heartwarming. But as I have said on your talk page, it would probably be better for you to try to focus your talent and love for this project towards writing for quality instead of quantity. :) Edit counts, tagging...those things really aren't important, PiR! The important thing is if it will really help Wikipedia in a significant way. And another thing that worries me a little more: you must always keep an open and obedient ear for what administrators say. If they warn you about something...chances are that they're right! :) So to sum it all up succintly: just use your bot for tagging, etc., and pour out your knowledge and fervor on improving Wikipedia's knowledge!

- Hello my dear PiR, I hope you are not discouraged by all the blocks and warnings you have received. :) I love the way you speak with AGF innocence, even though it may annoy some people. I hope you will try to edit on articles in the way Esther said, though, instead of stub-tagging. I hope you are not angry at me! Remember, edit count is not important. And don't feel sad or think negatively of yourself: even though many people are irritated by you sometimes, lots still adore you. Warmly, Belle tête-à-tête 03:28, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

- You are a hardworking, passionate editor and it is good to see one with so much enthusiasm for what we do. Just remember that patience will befit you better than a thousand more edits. I think that you should maybe pick one article to be your project for the next little while, and work on it when you are bored. Simplify other articles in between, but having one focus will help with your patience and give you something you can be really proud of. I mean, stub sorting is boring, boring work and you have the capability to give it to a bot (which is great), so why not put some time into something a little more rewarding? (Although, of course, I should follow my own advice.) {{Sonia|talk|en}} 04:10, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
- One thing I might add is that you shouldn't feel like you have to do everything, or even jump into everything. For example, I can think of a recent time when I gently warned an editor (gently because it was a first warning), and you then immediately repeated the warning in different words. Sometimes it's easier for one person to handle such things. I will say that your desire to help is indicative of a strong interest in doing your best for the site, but as others have hinted as, it's not the quantity, it's the quality.

Questions
- Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- I enjoy expanding stubs for the Stub Cup.
- 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?
- I was once in a conflict with Diego Grez, but I think we have solved that. I bothered many editors because I was sorting stubs (like my bot User:PiRSquared17Bot1).
