How to be useful

  • If someone is working on a new article, help them. Add relevant portal/series templates and categories. Without being in the way, do a little clean up. Lead by example.
  • When someone is being useful, provide them with feedback. Let them know their contribution to the wiki is useful.
  • When someone writes a decent article, give them an award. Invite them to continue writing for ED. Your job is to help ED retain it's contributors so they may someday become great like you.
  • Review Did you know?...
  • Review new articles
  • Patrol recent changes
  • Check current threat
  • Update good/bad articles
  • Special maintenance page
    • will make list
  • XOTN

Don't

  • Don't {{crap}}{{deathnotice}} on articles less than two weeks old. If you're not going to assist someone who is new and doesn't have a clue then do something else.
  • Don't move articles being worked on to someone's user space. There is no reason they can't work in the main space. Again, if you can't be helpful, then leave them alone.
  • Don't get into edit wars without discussion saying something in the talk page.
  • Don't delete images unless they are in violation of ED's policies.
