dogbows Posted October 9, 2004 Posted October 9, 2004 All points bulletin! We now have a regular Joe as an editor. What on earth is the ODP coming to? Congrats miromulus!
miromulus Posted October 9, 2004 Posted October 9, 2004 Thank you dogbows, thank you jgwright. I will remember your advice: Just apply to be an editor. Sycophanting around here won't get your account auto-magically upgraded... :-)
birthdayblews Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 Sorry to interrupt you lot congratulating yourselves (probably deservedly) but could one of you tell me exactly what is involved in being an editor. Is it just a question of going thru a list of sites and saying yes or no. I'm thinking of applying.
jgwright Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 Is it just a question of going thru a list of sites and saying yes or no.No, it's more than that. For a start there's no 'list', you've got the whole www to categorize. Actually there are a few more chores besides finding, adding, deleting and editing sites (and categories) as well but I won't let you in that secret. And the factors that mean a site gets deleted or listed really can be quite complicated. I don't know if that's turned you on or off. Advise look around here a bit more then if you're still interested apply for a category you're knowledgable in with just a few sites (10-50?) and you'll find out a lot more about how it ticks...
birthdayblews Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 Right, thanks - I didn't think it would be that easy. I'll look around a bit more and take it slowly.
dogbows Posted October 10, 2004 Author Posted October 10, 2004 And miromulus did not think he would qualify for an editor because in his words "I am just a regular Joe".
gboisseau Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 No more skunk bows? DB, I see you went out of the skunkbow business Guess I'm gonna have to find another supplier! lol!!
dogbows Posted October 10, 2004 Author Posted October 10, 2004 Well, you weren't around much for a while, so it did not seem obvious why it was there. And BTW, why would I be upset that you find a different supplier. You are a thief, not a buyer.
gboisseau Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 LOL!! - I was on a special project for a while, so I wasn't around to post much. But, now that it is done, his stinkfullness will be around again!
kelkid Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 Congratulations Congratulations morimulus. Good luck as an editor.
ccton Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Well, it seems a good idea to change my name as StandardJoe
dogbows Posted November 9, 2004 Author Posted November 9, 2004 CC, I noticed your application was in Chinese, so it can sometimes take longer for non English applications to be reviewed. Not as many Chinese speaking Metas to review applications. It took longer for miromulus. I think his was in Romanian. Just hang in there. It will happen when it happens. And Good Luck.
