Becoming staff isn't a reward for good edits, it's a job and a responsibility. How do you feel you could help us, and why should we promote you to become a Moderator?

:I am quite experienced with the way wikia works and my edits purely serve to help improve this wiki by giving only information that is given in-game rather than assumptions. If I will be given moderatorship, I will also help with moving and deleting pages when neccessary, and, when neccessary, warning or even banning members who ignore the rules of Grand Theft Wiki. It's a job that I won't be the best at and will never be, but I will try to be as good as I can be and will never abandon this responsibility, unless school will be eating my time or if I'll be on a holiday, which will never be longer as a week. -- [[User:Master Sima Yi|Master Sima Yi]] 16:34, May 20, 2010 (UTC) | :I am quite experienced with the way wikia works and my edits purely serve to help improve this wiki by giving only information that is given in-game rather than assumptions.

::[[Moderators]] don't actually have the rights to ban users or formally "warn" them. In fact, Administrators rarely use these functions. The best method is to help them understand why it is damaging to the wiki, and provide a good example of how they should conduct themselves. Of course this won't work on big attacks or people who are really pissed off, but it's the best way to deal with small-time spammers, vandals or those who add opinion/assumptions etc. There is no time commitment for you to be on X hours per week, just a collective responsibility amongst the whole team to lead this wiki and keep it running smoothly!

:::Yes, I know. I should've put 'if neccessary' before 'banning'. If they ignore the warnings that are given or are indeed to aggresive to be warned, it should be taken to more extreme matters. However, I think that I have seen about 2 vandals/spammers on this wiki in the whole time that I spend here, so I don't think it will be that much of a problem. -- [[User:Master Sima Yi|Master Sima Yi]] 05:39, May 21, 2010 (UTC) | |||
Are there any little [[Grand Theft Wiki:Tasks|tasks]], jobs or vendettas you perform around the wiki that you are particularly proud of?

::How would you take the good things about these articles, and apply them to other types of pages that aren't as good? Can you think of an example where a whole category/genre of pages (ie Vehicles) could be improved?

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?
