Revision as of 11:57, 16 January 2015
Dota 2
Hello Bryce,
I'm posting on (and starting) your talk page because I am very impressed with your recent work on the Dota 2 page. You see, I created that page over four years ago and have been its top editor ever since, bringing it all the way to Good Article status and it is now on the cusp of Featured Article status. However, I cannot continue editing Misplaced Pages regularly, which is why I am looking for a successor for taking care of the page and bringing it to FA status. Would you be interested in undertaking this task? DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 04:14, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
Hey!
I could definitly look at taking a look at the Dota 2 page. the main things I see that keep it from FA quality is the overall tone reads like an advert to me, I've taken down a lot of the peacock phrases to try and help bring it to a more NPOV that could score QA status. but I think there might be some larger problems as well ( structure of the article as a hole ) but I'd be happy to continue to try and help get it to QA quality. I'll read all the QA articles for other sportsgames and see what motiffs we can emulate to get it to top notch.

Your recent edits
Hello and welcome to Misplaced Pages. When you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 10:34, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
Not vandalism
I've removed my vandalism complaint at ARV in the light of your recent edits, most of which seem reasonable if somewhat pedantic. The problem is that your edits have a tendency to be aggressive rather than bold and when you make mistakes - as you have done - it looks bad. For example, removing an "unnecessary" use of the word "rather" in Business plan when the word is definitely necessary because it's clearly being used disjunctively. Your subsequent change to "instead" isn't needed, as the two words are synonymous given the context, but does no harm. I'm also not convinced about a couple of your edits on Executive summary which do seem very much like warring but I'll let it pass for now. andy (talk) 11:57, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
