Ever since I reverted an edit by a vandal by the first time (of course, having in mind that I should be careful and try not bite newcomers), I wanted to contribute more by stopping vandals (without starting an edit war). But over a short amount of time, I became bored by stopping vandals this way, and looked for alternative ways to contribute. Soon, I discovered that one could review pending changes as a way to prevent vandalism. Because of the amount of experience I realized it requires, I decided to take some time to study how Wikipedia works more and edited my user page plenty as another way learn more how Wikipedia works. I know it might seem as if I am out of my mind because of the low amount of edits I have, but I remember reading here that the edit count of a wikipedian is not a reliable way to judge users as it only measures participation and not quality. If I am rejected and thought to be too inexperienced, I will respect that, and return another day (when I am thought to be better) to apply again.   ⠀—‌‌  Glosome‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌  04:00, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

  Not done I'm not someone to play WP:EDITCOUNTIS, and never will be. That said, you need to show that you have the experience though quality of edits, and persistently over time. You only started seriously editing a week ago, and I can't judge if you know the intricacies of the BLP policy and reliable sourcing, nor can I tell how your interactions with new users are. So I definitely need more time, more solid policy driven edits to be able to consider your request. Please also see the basic criteria for becoming a PCR. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 05:35, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have been on wikipedia now for 2 years but at first it was not easy to understand how to contribute but now having an experience in serving to it, I am working to stop vandalism , making articles neutral, adding pending information as well as appropriate tagging, less on merging if asked or required but editing articles as required. In last two months I have been doing same continuously. I even requested for other rights previously but not having experience was the issue cited by respective administrator but if possible grant me the rights for a period of time. I will work continuously for these issues and afterwards I will ensure by my contributions to get them back. Manupriy Ahluwalia (talk) 09:03, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have concerns about you not using edit summaries to explain your reverting, when it's not blatant vandalism, especially in this case where you restored a copyright violation. Could you comment on this? -- Amanda (aka DQ) 02:20, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Balon Greyjoy

A few months ago, I requested New Page Reviewer rights to see how I enjoyed some of the more "behind the scenes" aspects of Wikipedia. While I have been fine with making sure that inappropriate pages don't get approved, the part that I've really enjoyed is approving an article by a new(ish) user, and occassionally checking back and seeing that they have stayed involved in Wikipedia. In that same vein, I would like to be able to verify pending edits, both to keep inappropriate edits off of Wikipedia, and to approve positive edits. I have improved several articles to GA status and reviewed many as well, and am especially familiar with BLP standards and how to look for copyright violations. Additionally, new page reviewing has taught me the guidelines on notability/vandalism/nonsense. In summary, I think that I could make a positive impact to Wikipedia by reviewing pending changes.
