So crowbar why does it seem like very few people get accepted as editors? I noticed several postings on denials. Is that a common occurrence?

Although I am not crowbar. Luckely I would say as one of him is enough BTW, welcom back crowbar.

In this case adding 1 to 1 doesn't make 2.
Yes, you can see several people asking about the rejection of their application. But does this mean only few people are accepted. No. The people who get accepted don't have a reason to post here.

Thank you, pvgool, . (and you can answer for me any time)

The application is a process, rather than a form. It sometimes takes several tries to get it right. All editors go through it and for many current editors, it took more than one try.

There's a purpose to this procedure, and we all go through the same process after we're editors, to apply for additional categories we'd like to edit in, so it's not personal, it's "business" so to speak. Even current editors have to demonstrate their knowledge of our editing guidelines, the category, and give reasons before they're granted other categories to edit in.

Welcome back, Marine!

Dude, my heart never left, I'm afraid, . Worst addiction I ever had.

Hey, crowbar I was accepted today as an editor. I am super excited!

That's why I didn't help you, I didn't think you needed it. Congratulations and a warm welcome to the family, .
