User talk:Shadowphoenix/Personality/Results

Well i fall into atleast 5 of these categories so im not sure where to put myself--Cobalt | Talk  19:19, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * This is a work in progress, I am going to add new sections later on, why not ask peoples opinions and see what they think. You can always change it later :o) -- Shadowphoenix  19:21, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah I just added myself into 5 different categories. Hope that's ok.--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 19:23, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * New section: The incomprehensible editor, signed by me. :) --[[Image:OrgXSignature.jpg]] 19:25, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I would perfer you all put ur sig in 1 section, get ppls opinion on it and see where u think u can be placed. You can change it later -- Shadowphoenix  19:26, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, i would consider myself to be
 * Patrols - RC is the first page i go to and keep going back to, to find new pages on which to waste time. It's how i found this one, for example. I also try to watch for "trivia" and edits by people who don't understand skill unlocking
 * The Coherent Editor - I try to pick apart arguments i disagree with on a purely logical basis, and usually have 5 wiki pages open at once so i can check what im saying is actually correct.
 * The Fun Loving Editor - see User:Cobalt and User:Cobalt, i also tend not to see things from a serious perspective and find humour in pretty much everything
 * The Astute Editor - Well, i made my first userbox on my first day of the wiki, and have yet to have people quote policy links at me except GW:YAV when i tried not to cause offence by pointing out that a far more experienced users viewpoint was clearly wrong
 * The Semi-Abhorrent Editor - In so far as i think that many rules on this wiki are overly buereacratic and can impede correct information being added to articles see Talk:Spectral Agony

I hardly have enough contributions to have other users give an opinion though, so i'll just not sign anywhere--Cobalt | Talk  19:39, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I personally think I fit into all the categories that I signed. Someone that really knows me can limit it to one, if they want. It's just that some of the categories are too specific to just sign one. For example, if we compare this to sorting people by visual appearance, you'd have categories such as blond, Blue eyes, male, then I'd have to sign all of them, since they all describe me. Hope this actually makes sense.--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 19:48, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

@ cobalt, I would say to are an Amiable Serious Editor imo. :o) -- Shadowphoenix  19:51, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd say fun-loving for cobalt--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 20:00, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

"For example, if we compare this to sorting people by visual appearance, you'd have categories such as blond, Blue eyes, male" Very well put. For example, the 'patrol' category describes merely 1 characteristic of people who could easily fit into the other categories. You could easily have a 'Serious Editor' who spends their time on RC patrol thus fitting into both categories.

"I would say to are an Amiable Serious Editor imo" Perhaps i fit into that category, i suppose my edits are laregely serious in as much as my article edits are not vandalism and tend to have an objective purpose. However i feel that my grasp of wiki code is pretty good considering how long i've been here, making me an astute editor. I wont list all the other factors that place me in the other categories i mentioned, but i don't think it's really fair to classify people into such rigid achetypes. And no im not taking this too seriously, im just bored so posting on talk pages.--Cobalt | Talk</B>  20:09, 3 April 2008 (UTC)


 * "I'd say fun-loving for cobalt" Well im glad im no longer solely assigned to an editor category with "serious" in the name (it conjures up images of old bearded men with glasses and pipes who love filling out bank forms and get rubber stamps for christmas). Meh, i'll post something on my talkpage and see if anyone posts there. And this may appear slightly out of context because my wiki-sense tells me im about to see the words "Edit Conflict!"--<font color="Blue">Cobalt </B>| <font color="Green">Talk</B>  20:13, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

New categories
Doesn't fix much, unless you make a "Stern Outgoing Amiable Serious Fun-Loving Semi-Abhorant Patrol" category, I suggest you just let people sign multiple categories.-- (Talk) (Contr.) 20:30, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I only added 3 of the 25 that I have thought up to that draft, the others Im still working on -- Shadowphoenix  20:33, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, you Straight Forward Serious Respected Astute Patrolling Coherent Editors should stop being so negative sorry --<font color="Blue">Cobalt </B>| <font color="Green">Talk</B>  20:46, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't mean to sound rude, but why can't we sign more than one category? What are the consequences if we do?--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 20:49, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You don't even want to think about the consequences! (dont worry i will stop spamming this talkpage soon, my anti-virus has almost finished its scan) --<font color="Blue">Cobalt </B>| <font color="Green">Talk</B>  20:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Can't decide between fun-loving and casual. Put myself under casual for the time being. Misfate  01:38, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Well Marco, you can now put yourself under amiable freelance. [[Image:Thoughtful-new-sig.jpg]] Thoughtful 01:38, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
