I've gotten some good applications for the open spots on the wiki staff so far, which is good. However, I've only actually got a few of them, which, given that I like to make the hard choices and tough calls when it comes to position applications, is less good. I do understand, however, that the holiday season can be a busy one for everyone around the Brotherhood for various reasons. That being the case, I've decided to extend applications until well after the new year in the hopes that any holiday dinner food comas or new years hangovers (Drink Responsibly!) have passed. So, I'll be accepting applications through Friday, January 8th at 11:59 PM EST. For any interested, I'll repeat the announcement detailing the application process below:

Last month we ended up losing one of our Wiki staffers to the dreaded monster of Real Life, so we’ve been down a hand (at the least) of late. That being the case, I’m going to open up applications for at least one additional wiki staff member. I see a lot of conversations out there on the subject of promotions, especially Equite ones, and the lack of opportunity to work on things above the Clan level. Things like service on the wiki staff while making verifiable contributions is one of those opportunities, so don’t let this one pass you by. When I first opened up applications six months ago, while I got some really excellent applications, I didn’t get many applications. Then, very shortly thereafter, I saw people who hadn’t even applied complaining about shortage of DJB-level posts to hold in order to make the transition from consumer to producer. Well, this is your chance once again.

Just like the last time I opened applications, I’ll likely be looking to assign specific members to specific tasks or job areas on the wiki. If you have any interest in or ideas about ongoing wiki projects listed below, make sure to include that in your application. Also, if you have any new ideas for projects, feel free to include that, too. I’m always a fan of people with ideas.

If you feel like joining the wiki staff is something you'd be interested in, applications will be open until Friday, January 8th. Please send an email to me with the subject "Wiki Staff Application" and outline your experience and any examples of your work (either on our wiki or elsewhere). I would prefer that applicants have passed at least the Wiki Basics course if not Wiki Editing as well, but exceptions to that can be made for the right candidate.
