The Wiki Curator Program rewards and formally recognizes editors who have distinguished themselves in editing and maintenance of the UniWiki, above and beyond other editors. The Wiki Department offers these individuals the status of Wiki Curator to recognize their contributions.
Wiki Curators
Wiki Curators are editors who are eager to go the extra mile to ensure both their own edits and those of others are of good quality. They are recognized as experienced contributors to the UniWiki and assist in its upkeep and development. Wiki Curators are members of the Wiki Department.
Wiki Curators do not need to be members of EVE University. All capsuleers are encouraged to become Wiki Curators by contributing their knowledge and expertise. While EVE University does host and administrate the UniWiki, the UniWiki serves all of New Eden; thus, all editors should feel welcome to participate in EVE University's mission to create an accurate and comprehensive resource.
Benefits of being a Wiki Curator
- Join a group of high performing editors who want to make the UniWiki into the most beautiful and truthful publicly available knowledge repository in all of New Eden
- Gain access to the Wiki Curator Discord
- Advise the Wiki Manager, lead and propose UniWiki:Projects that will shape the future of the UniWiki
- Receive a mention on the Wiki Department page even after you retire
- In-game, Wiki Curators who are also members of EVE University carry the title of "Wiki Curator"
Becoming a Wiki Curator
You become a Wiki Curator and a member of the Wiki Department, when the Wiki Manager gives you the Wiki Curator award.
To become eligible for the Wiki Curator award you must:
- edit the Wiki for around three months
- maintain an activity level of an average Wiki Curator
- show excellence and distinguish yourself among other editors
There are many ways in which you can show excellence and distinguish yourself. Examples include:
- completing a Wiki Project or doing a task from the UniWiki:To-Do List
- making good use of your 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 making you into a Wiki Curator.
Responsibilities
The scope of an individual Wiki Curator's involvement varies, but in general they will:
- monitor the 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 communication channels
- provide or relay feedback and input to the 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 other large-scale changes to the UniWiki
- organize and update the UniWiki as a whole by enhancing articles, review changes by others, proofread, add more links, improve style and so on
A Wiki Curator is not necessarily the top authority on a topic, but more of a coordinator for content improvement and a caretaker for existing content.
Activity requirements
To maintain Wiki Curator status, Wiki Curators 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 Curator drop to a rate that the 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.
It is customary for the Wiki Manager to ask the Wiki Curator for a final wish before retiring their role.

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:
