✏✏✏Looking For DayZ Wiki Editors✏✏✏

For those of you who don't already know, we have a DayZ Wiki Page. However, it's not very polished and needs some editing and/or maintenance. I am currently under a trial for the managerial position of the DayZ Wiki Page meaning I choose editors, set tasks, deadlines, edit the page myself, etc. There are a few editor positions open at the moment. In a couple of days, I'll choose a few applicants in which we all work together in fixing up the Wiki page (for about 2 weeks). At the end of this period, I'll then choose certain individuals who stood out to me the most and showed that they can handle their position.

Requirements:

Must have an strong interest and be extremely knowledgeable in DayZ.
Must be able to word one's self and write well written English (all of the content must be written, none of it can be copy pasted).
Must have a significant amount of time to contribute and maintain the wiki.

Responsibilities:

Write and organize
Moderate and edit user submitted pages and content
Ensure that the game news and other user submitted content gets to the front page.
Work with other editors to ensure that the wiki is up.
Take screenshots, find pictures, structure and format user content.
Actively participate in the development of the wiki, inactivity will not be accepted.

Reasons you should get this position:

If you have already made contributions to Wiki page, that will definitely help your chances. However, I, along with everyone else can view the logs of who edited and when they edited the page so don't get any ideas to help boost your chances now

.

Also, please only post application on this thread. If anyone has any questions then just PM me.

Name: Chase

Age: 15

Time available: (UTC -8) Weekdays are usually 3-8, on weekends I can sometimes go full dayz, and sometimes I won't be on at all. On average (for weekends) I'm on about 5 hours.

Reasons you should get this position: I've devoted a ridiculous amount of time (and money) to DayZ. And am completely obsessed. I write short stories every so often. So, not to sound conceited, but my writing isn't shit. I'm quite knowledgeable on DayZ, in almost every aspect regarding Chernarus. Every other map, I'm clueless tbh.

Name:
Micah
Age:
15
Time available:
Mostly weekends, usually on about 30mins-1hour during weekdays, weekends around 10-18 hours
Reasons you should get this position:
I love helping, giving back to the community, quite knowledgeable with DayZ, and want to be a part of something bigger.

Thanks for your time, have a nice day!

Name: Mike
Age: 15
Time available: During the week usually after 3 est, weekends vary.
Reasons you should get this position: I've been playing DayZ for almost a year now, since they had US1 and US2 hosted by Tonic who is a retired DEV of DayZ. I'm quite knowledgeable with DayZ and Arma2 as a whole, since I have been playing the game for almost two years. And I am looking to give back to the DayZ community as a whole.

Name: Josh

Age:18

Time available:Pacific Standard Time 3 PM - 4 AM

Reasons you should get this position:I feel I'm very knowledgeable about the topics concerning DayZ, for example map design, all the maps information, how to edit the maps, weapons, items, skins, and I keep up with the most recent news and blog posts so I don't fall behind and miss anything. I'm also stoked about standalone and would love to help with the wiki as I have a lot of spare time and feel I could contribute more than others may be able to because of the large amount of free time I possess. If you considered me for the position I would highly appreciate it.
-Thank you

Name: Hank

Age: 17

Time available: I pretty much live on the computer, but im off and on I guess.
(On most/all the time on weekends, most time on weekdays)

Reasons you should get this position: Not only do I have a good amount of knowledge about DayZ, but I also know ArmA like the back of my hand..
I've never made a mission, or a game.. But i've been playing Arma/DayZ for a very long time.
(I played arma before DayZ came out) So im confident I could supply the Wiki with greatly written general
information about ArmA/DayZ. And with dedicated time spent on it :3 I also could stick around for StandAlone (If Possible)

Thanks For Reading MY Application (:

Name: Shannon
Age: 24
Time Available: Whenever needed

I'm basically always at home at the moment glued to the computer monitor. I just completed a tafe course so I am unemployed atm looking for work. I have been playing DayZ for about 5 months now, but that is dedicated time. I have thrashed the game and like to think I am quite knowledgeable when it comes to Chernarus, Utes and Namalsk. I haven't spent much time on the other maps. Getting this position would suit me great for the time being as I am not currently doing anything with myself and would be a great time consumer.

Name: Simon
Age: 17
Time available: 4pm-10pm (GMT +1) on weekdays and all day on weekends
Reasons you should get this position: I have already contributed TONS to this wiki. [ Link to my contributions - User contributions for Simozh - DayZ Wiki ] I am the only one that has done something on this page so far, and I can continue. Not chosing me will be like spitting in my face and I reserve the right to remove my work since you know, I did all of that. I am not threatning , but If something, I have proven myself and deserve this.
I can easily edit any page that requires a table with contents (eg Weapons, Vehicles and so on) because I have the templates for it (that are quick to work with and I can share them with my "co-workers" if I get picked)

Name: FragrantParrot ( IRL: Gus )

Age: 15

Time available: weekdays 2-3 hours, weekends 6-8 hours.

Reasons you should get this position: I love contributing and being a part of something, the most satisfying feeling is seeing something develop from something bad to being really good, and helping to make that happen. I have been on MPGH for a while and am quite trusted. I have never tried editing a wiki before so I think this would be a really good experience! I know Chernarus like the back of my hand and the other maps pretty damn well too, I have been playing DayZ for around 6 months now for at least 2 hours a day so I know the weapons, equipment etc very well so I think I would make a good editor!

Thanks!

Name: Tuff_Leader (Or you can call me Sal)

Age: 14, Hope that isn't too young :|

Time Available: Week-days, from 3:00 EST, to around 10ish (approximation)

Reasons you should get this position: I have about 440 hours into the game on my steam, and one of the only reasons I have bought Arma Complete (Also an awesome game by the way) is to play Dayz. I have mastered all of the bone-breaking areas, most of the weapon spawns, default vehicle spawns, and a dayz server owner myself.

Thanks to everyone who applied. I'm just letting you all know that this wasn't an easy decision. I have chosen @simozh and @darkangel1 as my DayZ Wiki Trial Editors. My decision was based on past contributions to the Wiki, past contributions to this section in general and time availability. I wasn't too concerned with grammar, structure, etc in your applications being that no one's was exceptional. I encourage everyone to apply again if there are any more openings. Thanks, again.
@NormenJaydenFBI, requesting a close and for this to be unstuck.

Everyone has been picked.
/Unstuck
/Closed
