The Wiki Curators Program rewards and recognizes editors who have distinguished themselves in editing and maintenance of the UniWiki, above and beyond other editors.

Wiki Curator

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. The list of Wiki Curators is found on the Wiki Department page.

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 Officer
  • 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 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.

Wiki Officer

Wiki Officers are active Wiki Curators recognized as experienced contributors to the UniWiki and assist in its upkeep and development. Wiki Officers are members of the Wiki Department. In-game, Wiki Officers who are also members of EVE University carry the title of "Wiki Curator".

Wiki Officers do not need to be members of EVE University. All capsuleers are encouraged to become Wiki Officers by contributing their knowledge and expertise. While EVE University does host and administrate the UniWiki, the UniWiki serves all of New Eden; thus, all capsuleers should feel welcome to participate in EVE University's mission to create an accurate and comprehensive resource.

Responsibilities

The scope of an individual Wiki Officer'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 Officer 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 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 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.

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:

The following individuals have been recognized as Curators in the past, and their contributions are still very much appreciated!
