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 Interaction]]. Lots of users already have plenty of wiki edits to pages that would more than qualify them to claim official curatorship for the area.

Line 18:

When you feel comfortable with the topic and think you have a decent idea of which pages are involved, create a forum thread in [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewforum.php?f=31 E-UNI General Discussion] 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 to the [[EVE University Management#Wiki Manager|Wiki Manager]] if they haven't noticed the thread after a couple of days to chime in. After discussion has progressed to the point where it becomes apparent whether or not the area justifies the curator, and that a worthy candidate is available, the decision will be made and celebrations can begin.

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.
