- Review from nn123645: Going through what I see on your user page and your BRFAs you appear to be overzealous and slightly uncivil, as evidenced in edits like this. While Editor Review isn't for reviewing admin potential, I can almost guarantee that if you were to go up for RFA today you would not pass. While you are not being graded based on professionalism, I find the fact that you multiple typos (patrol, occasionally, multiple, etc.) on your user page yet the fact you have a user box for Typo correcting to be a bit contradictory. In talk page messages you should follow basic net ediqutte, which would include avoiding things like all caps as in an internet context that is widely regarded as yelling. Looking at your hotcat usage, I find that arbitrarily adding very general categories such as in these edits ([1][2][3][4]) is not productive and is borderline malicious. Adding categories like "pages" and "people" are way too broad to be helpful. Adding While you are encouraged to be bold and ignore all rules that does not mean that you should ignore the the consensus policy and do things that would likely go against censuses or things which would be questionable. The fact that you were blocked for "unproductive edits" yet continue the same behaviour also concerns me. I would encourage you to read all of Wikipedia's policies, sign up for the adopted user program and seek editor assistance or ask your adopter if you are unsure of something. I appreciate your enthusiasm for the project, but ignoring consensus and policy will do nothing but get you blocked.

Questions
- Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- A long time ago I beat cluebot with a piece of vandalism.
- 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 felt stress when I got blocked from wikipedia. Turns out after a hour of reading policies, I WASN'T WARNED. I felt stress through the next day untill I checked and was unblocked!!!
