I bounce around projects a lot, but some things I've stuck with for longer than most include answering COI edit requests, AfC reviewing, recent change patrolling, new page patrol (mostly redirects), and adding short descriptions. On the content end, lately I've been working on decrufting and improving the sourcing on dog breed articles, writing articles on (perhaps surprisingly!) notable fandom topics, and expanding small mammal stubs. You can see my barnstars and assorted shines at the linked page.
If I get something wrong or there's something you think I could do better, please let me know! And feel free to ping me or drop a note on my talk page if I haven't replied to something for more than two days.
If I reviewed your Articles for Creation (AfC) draft
{{AFC status|align=right}}...you can leave me a message if you have any questions. However, you may get a faster response asking at the Teahouse or at the AfC help desk. You may also want to look at my notes on AfC sources, which address common issues with AfC drafts.
Note that to be fair to all submitters I do not review drafts on request. If it's taking a long time to get to your draft, please be patient. We typically have a long backlog and all reviewers are doing this for free in their spare time.
If I reviewed your COI edit request
...feel free to ping me for followup questions or further requests, but reviewing one of your requests doesn't mean I'm going to continue reviewing all followups. In some cases I may also review only part of a request (usually the straightforward one). In that case I try to make it clear that I will not necessarily get back to it but sometimes forget, sorry! Other editors should always feel free to jump in on "my" reviews.
Unfortunately there is often a long wait especially for long, complicated, or controversial requests - please remember that we are all volunteers doing this in our spare time. To increase the chance of a fast review, I recommend splitting your request into small pieces, submitting potentially controversial, promotional or otherwise difficult to check requests separately from simple updates and corrections, formatting your requests with before and after diffs, and citing every change. You may also want to take a look at the simple conflict of interest edit request info page and a guide to effective COI edit requests.
There are currently {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Wikipedia conflict of interest edit requests}} requests in :Category:Wikipedia conflict of interest edit requests.
