Through my experiences as a new user to GTA Wikia back in 2008,I would say that the hardest thing for a new user to get the hang of is how to edit and what they have to do in order to be a good editor to the wikia.If I were to see that a new member is having difficulty is if they are putting relevant information but can not seem to put the words in order or seem to put to much information that some of it becomes irrelevant and if I were to help them I would tell the new user and make sure that the user understands the policy to this wikia.


Becoming staff isn't a reward for good edits, it's a job and a respoinsibility. How do you feel you could help us, and why should we promote you to become a Moderator? [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 01:43, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

I also beleive that getting promoted is a reward or privileg but I would be able to help GTA Wikia by checking as much pages as I can to see if I they need some more information or remove some information there that does not seem needed.A reason I believe that I should be a Moderator is I do check over alot of pages and I can help out with GTA Wikia pages as I have been a long time gta player and I know alot of the Grand Theft Auto series to help out with pages that need cleanup or is a stub.

To be quite honest I would not really say that I was "proud" but I do feel that I put some pages that were really needed such as the [[Beta Releases]] page I created a few months back or a few important plots from GTA storylines such as The [[First Gang War]].


Could you give one example of what you think is one of the best pages on this wiki, and a brief explanation of why you chose that. It should probably be an informational article, but you could use a list or category or similar if you explain why.

Again to be honest I do not beleive in the "Best page to the wikia" as I beleive that while there are some pages that are important that other pages,there are also some pages that have the same importance to another page.For example I beleive that [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] and the [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] pages have the same importance as if someone who was told by someone else to play Grand Theft Auto was to check these pages these pages would influence the person who has not played Grand Theft Auto to play the game and thats something I would like to see.


Do you have any questions about the wiki, its staff or the role of a Moderator, or any final comments before we make our decision? [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 01:43, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Maybe explain what was the hardest thing you've had to learn whilst being here? Gboyers talk 01:43, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
