Please be honest, this isn't about showing off who does the most!

Likewise if there's something you would like to have more input in, or be in charge of, list it.

This page is for staff to pick their own roles and areas of responsibility for this wiki.

Please can all staff fill in their relevant boxes with what they would like, and we'll sort out the overlaps afterwards.


Key:

  • Article types - which areas of the wiki are you most interested in, eg vehicles, characters, old GTA games, modding etc
  • Content activities - which article cleanup activities do you like to participate in, eg rewriting text, article structure, categories, spelling/grammar, broken redirects, image licences, adding galleries, making templates/infoboxes etc
  • Management & community activities - are there any management-style tasks you like doing (or would like to do), such as greeting new users, dealing with problem reports, patrolling, writing policy, answering questions
  • Availability - please specify whether you'll be here every day, a couple of times a week, or less often. Also point out if you're likely to be more or less active over the holiday period.

Please be honest, this isn't about showing off who does the most! At the end of this process, we'll assign out some of these to each staff member as an area of personal responsibility, so if there's something you don't want to do, don't list it. Likewise if there's something you would like to have more input in, or be in charge of, list it.
