=== Becoming a Wiki Curator ===

An editor becomes a Wiki Curator when the Wiki Manager gives them the Wiki Curator award.
 
 
 
To become eligible for the Wiki Curator award you must:
 
* edit the Wiki for about three months
 
* maintain an activity level of an average Wiki Curator
 
* show excellence and distinguish yourself among other editors
 
 
 
You show excellence and distinguish yourself by:
 
* completing a Wiki Project or doing a task from the To-Do list
 
* making good use of your [[Special:MyPage|User Namespace]]
 
* using sandbox or draft pages before publishing major changes to an article
 
* creating or improving a template
 
* communicating and cooperating with other editors
 
* writing expressive edit summaries
 
 
 
If you believe you should become a Wiki Curator, but haven't been contacted by the Wiki Manager, feel free to contact them. The worst thing that can happen is that the Wiki Manager tells you what else you should do before being made into a Wiki Curator.
 
 
 
== Wiki Officer ==
 
 
 
'''Wiki Officers''' are active Wiki Curators recognized as experienced contributors to the UniWiki and assist in its upkeep and development. In-game, Wiki Officers who are also members of EVE University carry the title of "Wiki Curator".
 
 
 
=== Responsibilities ===
 
 
 
...The scope of an individual curator's involvement varies. Some curators work to organize and update the UniWiki as a whole, while others focus on specific areas of knowledge. Wiki Curators help enhance articles, review changes by others, proofread, add more links, improve style, and so on. A curator is not necessarily the top authority on a topic, but more of a coordinator for content improvement and a caretaker for existing content. ...
 
 
 
* Monitor the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] on the UniWiki for signs of an editor that may need help or indications of trolling/vandalism
 
* Assist others with regards to the UniWiki in the [[UniWiki:Welcome#Communications|UniWiki communication channels]]
 
* Provide or relay feedback and input to the [[Wiki Department|Wiki Manager]] with regards to issues experienced on the UniWiki, new changes after implementation, etc.
 
* Assist with tests and development of new features, templates, extensions or [[UniWiki:Projects|other large-scale changes]] to the UniWiki
 
 
 
=== Activity requirements ===
 
 
 
To maintain Wiki Officer status, Wiki Officers are expected to maintain a reasonable level of activity by taking part in [[UniWiki:Projects]], completing tasks on the [[UniWiki:To-Do List]] or doing other UniWiki related activities. It is, unfortunately, difficult to place an exact definition of what a "reasonable level of activity" entails. Should activity levels for a particular Wiki Officer drop to a rate that the [[Wiki Department|Wiki Manager]] does not consider sufficient, the Wiki Manager will reach out to that individual to discuss the situation and provide time for communication, improvement and understanding, prior to acting to retire their role.

== Wiki Curators ==
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
== Becoming a Wiki Curator ==
 
 
 
Wiki Curatorship has very few requirements, so it is one of the easiest roles to obtain:
 
 
 
'''Requirements:'''
 
* Interest in a topic
 
* Decent editing skills (formatting, style, proficiency with English for proof reading, etc.)
 
* EVE University forum account
 
 
 
Wiki Curators do not need to be members of [[EVE University]]. All members of the EVE community are encouraged to contribute their knowledge and expertise. While EVE University does host and administrate the UniWiki, the UniWiki serves the entire EVE community; thus, the entire EVE community should feel welcome to participate in EVE University's mission to create an accurate and comprehensive resource.
 
 
 
To qualify, simply start editing any page(s) in the wiki you consider relevant to a topic of your interest. Curatorships will vary in size, with some made up by a single page and others a few, such as [[Planetary Industry]]. Lots of users already have plenty of wiki edits to pages that would more than qualify them to claim official curatorship for that area.
 
 
 
When you feel comfortable with the topic and think you have a decent idea of which pages are involved, create a forum thread in the '''Web Services and Development''' [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewforum.php?f=270 Wiki subforum] with the set of pages listed requesting feedback from the community on whether it makes sense to group those pages and if anybody else has an interest in helping out. That is a great time to also make a push to improve the pages overall, if needed.
 
 
 
Send a forum PM or Evemail to the [[EVE University Management#Wiki Manager|Wiki Manager]] if they haven't noticed the thread after a couple of days so that they can chime in. After discussion has progressed to the point where it becomes apparent whether or not the area justifies the curatorship, and that a worthy candidate is available, the decision will be made and celebrations can begin.
 
 
 
Alternatively, you can apply to join the wiki team directly using [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSed1DicoDn40QGmyBv_i1IbZ3GmCpnemS3pVbcDKlCaGyN2bg/viewform this application]. Particularly active editors who consistently produce quality contributions may also be personally invited to join the wiki team by the Wiki Manager or [[EVE University Management#Director of Communications|Director of Communications]], though they are of course under no obligation to do so.
 
 
 
Wiki Curators receive access to the [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewforum.php?f=245 Wiki Staff subforum] on the EVE University forums. Curators who are also current members of EVE University will also be invited to E-UNI Staff Slack to facilitate communication with other members of the wiki team. EVE University alumni and other non-member curators may also receive access to Staff Slack subject to Director approval on a case-by-case basis.
 
 
 
Some curators will eventually go inactive for one reason or another. If it isn't apparent if somebody is still active, send them a PM or contact the Wiki Manager. Don't shy away from an area of the wiki needing attention, whether it has an active curator or not. Ultimately the goal is to simply improve the wiki's content.
 
 
 
You never need the approval of a curator to participate in editing the UniWiki. Wiki Curators exist to help coordinate editing and improve the overall quality of the UniWiki, and do not claim "ownership" of a given section or article.
 
 
 
== How to curate ==
 
 
 
So you have an interest and would like to become a curator for an area. Now what are you supposed to do?
 
 
 
* Curators do not need to be an expert on the subject matter (although it certainly helps to at least be familiar with the topic).
 
* You do not need to do all the work yourself. For larger topics covering multiple articles, help coordinate other people.
 
** Note: Coordinate in-game and in the forum. The "Discussion" pages in the wiki are very rarely checked and most forget they even exist.
 
* Review changes made to the relevant pages and help polish them by proofreading, adjusting grammar, adding formatting, or linking text to other pages in the wiki. Feel free to verify the actual information, or ask somebody to double-check if there is any doubt.
 
** You can add wiki pages to your [[Special:Watchlist|Watchlist]], which will send an email to you when a watched page changes. You don't have to check every time the page changes, but it can help to know when they do.
 
* Encourage others to contribute to the wiki. Wiki Curators are not gatekeepers controlling access, they are facilitators.
 
 
 
== Class Library Curator ==
 
 
 
One of the most central features to [[EVE University]] is our class system, and our audio recordings are organized on this page:
 
 
 
* Page(s): [[EVE University Class Library]]
 
* Curator: TBD
 
 
 
== Works in progress ==
 
 
 
The {{tl|Work in progress}} template is intended to mark articles that are actively being edited by one or more contributors. Applying this template to an article means taking temporary responsibility for the improvement and expansion of that article. It is not simply a means of marking articles that need work; {{tl|update}}, {{tl|cleanup}}, and {{tl|merge}} can be used to indicate that an article needs work or review without committing to that work.
 
 
 
This template should not be left on articles for more than a few days; its presence implies that work on that article represents a priority for its contributor. If you come across an article with this template and the article has not been edited in several days, please remove the template.
 
 
 
----
 
 
 
{{See also|Wiki Curator Program}}
 
While all EVE Online pilots have access to (and are encouraged to!) edit the UniWiki, we recognize that there are some individuals who are eager to go the extra mile to ensure both their own edits and those of others are of good quality, and content are kept up to date. EVE University offers these individuals the status of "Wiki Curator" to recognize their contributions.
 
 
 
The current UniWiki curators are:
 
 
 
* [[User:Evon R'al|Evon R'al]]
 
* [[User:Rayanth|Rayanth]]
 
* [[User:Arin Mara|Arin Mara]]
 
* [[User:Cassiel_Seraphim|Cassiel Seraphim]]
 
* [[User:Drebin 679|Drebin 679]]
 
* [[User:Hirmuolio_Pine|Hirmuolio Pine]]
 
* [[User:John_Juulianos|John Juulianos]]
 
 
 
The following individuals have been recognized as Curators in the past, and their contributions are still very much appreciated!
 
 
 
* [[User:Abelard Andedare|Abelard Andedare]]
 
* [[User:Christopher nolm|Christopher Nolm]]
 
* [[User:Felyza|Felyza]]
 
* [[User:Jean inkura|Jean Inkura]]
 
* [[User:Lulu lunette|Lulu Lunette]]
 
* [[User:Noctis locus|Noctis Locus]]
 
* [[User:Noemie belacqua|Noemie Belacqua]]
