latessa Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Hi! I'm excited! I made new editor! So I guess now I'll have to be responsible ...eeh? Okay...I'm so happy! latessa
tgilkison Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Quit Gloating! So, what did you have to do? I'm still waiting to become an editor. I made the mistake of asking for a directory that was 'too big' for a new editor. I have applied for another one that has less links...I don't get it yet. Just let me in, and I'll show you what I can do!
bobrat Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 I'm watching :Pirate: :Pirate: of the :tree: Caribean :tree: tomorrow
Nelliehardy2003 Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Yeah, I just applied to become an editor today. I hope I get accepted.
ctabuk Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 Congrats too, have you got all the pills you will need, sleeping pills, asprin etc? Would you do me just one huge favour? Tell the people who send you sites to review to join forums and read all the threads on DMOZ and that way you might not need medication! Good luck David
Gimpy Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 No you defineately need the medication. Congrats
abumohayed Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 The question is responsible ... as in .. eh! You sound like a lot of fun . I'm sure you would do fine Congrats is in order ...
mssi Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 I applied 2 weeks Ago and have not gotten a response.....How long did it take for them to accept you?
Markeez13 Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 I applied 2 hours ago...I am going crazy...I can hardly wait for my results!!!
oneeye Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 Sometimes it takes hours, sometimes days, sometimes weeks, occasionally months. It depends on the category, meta availability to review the application, and a range of other factors. Make sure you follow all the guidelines and advice given here as far as the process and checking up on the application goes. And best of luck (though luck shouldn't come into it if you've done everything right).
ctabuk Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Twenty Seven Years, I've been waiting! Ah hold on, minutes, but it seems that way
GuyCre8ive Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 I'm watching :Pirate: :Pirate: of the :tree: Caribean :tree: tomorrow lol, what the hell does that have to do with anything?
bobrat Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 go to latessa [the person who started the thread] - view the public profile - look at the listed web sites - look at the movie star - ..... Next hint tomorrow
BBTech Posted May 28, 2005 Posted May 28, 2005 Congratz on the position!! I just applied about 20 minutes ago, but we'll see what happens Patience is a virtue
Salim Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 I applied three days ago, and I keep checking my e-mail every 3 hours to see if I got any e-mail about my submission, it's hard to wait, and I can't forget about it either!
Salim Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 what happens next after becoming an editor? do you have to fill out some other forms, or you start working right away?
oneeye Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 You read all the guidelines, then read them again, then take a detailed look at the sites listed and those waiting for you to review, visit the internal forums and say hello (if you want), read the guidelines again, ask for a mentor (if you want), then have a go at your first edit. Anything you aren't sure of, check the guidelines, check the internal forums, then ask away in the internal forums. No forms, no residential training courses, no meetings with the new boss (there are no bosses, only more experienced editors), no pay at the end of the month, and no holidays.
firestorm Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Congrats on your acceptance to the editing team. We will look forward to seeing what you have to offer to the directory. Be sure to say hello in the ODP forums. We like to meet new people. Firestorm ODP Editor This is an editor comment and not an official ODP statement.
