Board Admin Popular Post A. Wong Posted August 10 Board Admin Popular Post Report Share Posted August 10 Hi everyone! We are pleased to announce a better application process for becoming a CPTDB Wiki Editor. We know there have been numerous requests and many that have gone without a response. Our apologies for this. To maintain a high quality resource, we require that edits and contributions are entered with accuracy and care. As such, editing is limited to those who demonstrate attention to detail and quality posts on the forum. Going forward, we have created a new CPTDB Wiki Editor Application Form for those who are interested to apply. There are some skill testing questions specific to Wiki editing, however, do not be discouraged if you don't know the answer. We will review the applications periodically and contact those who we may consider via private message. Thank you for your interest! 9 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulated Posted August 17 Report Share Posted August 17 Hello everyone, just a little update on the new Wiki Editor application process... The moderator team has received a huge number of requests - at last count there have been over 50 applications received since the new application form has been launched! This obviously will take the small team of moderators a bit of time to go through, so we thank you for your patience. We will be starting to inform successful applicants and create new accounts this weekend, so look for a PM and/or email regardless of whether you were accepted or not. As a reminder for new editors, please follow the Naming Conventions and the standard layout, and be sure to preview your edits before saving them. If you have any questions, please reach out to myself or another member of the moderating team for advice. A couple of notes from trends that we have observed: submitting multiple applications will not improve your chance of becoming a Wiki Editor; additionally, continuously messaging other administrators/moderators on the status of your application will also not speed up the review process. Both of these will likely increase the likelihood of your application being denied, as it demonstrates a lack of ability to follow rules and directions. Please be patient, as we are working through applications roughly in the order we receive them. If your application has been denied at this time, do not worry. In the meantime, you can work on your posting quality on the forums, and you can contribute any changes to the Updates and Additions subforum, and improvements in these areas will be considered when reviewing future re-applications. Thanks to everyone who has applied so far, and congratulations to the new Wiki Editors! 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
