What do you think is the hardest thing for new editors to get the hang of (whether a technical skill, a policy or just the way we do things here); how would you spot they were having difficulty; and how would you help them? Maybe explain what was the hardest thing you've had to learn whilst being here?

Nomination
I nominate MattyDienhoff to become a member of staff. His edits are of consistant quality and has shown good knowledge of how the wiki works.
MattyDienhoff, please reply with whether you accept or decline this nomination, and why.
I accept, because having extra abilities will make it quicker and easier for me to do what I do, wikis can always do with more helpers, and I know I'm capable. --MattyDienhoff 06:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
Questions
Do you think vandalism is a big problem at GTW? How would you deal with someone who did something like delete all the content on one page? What might be the possible reasons for them doing that? Gboyers talk 16:18, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Comments
I just went through this users contribs and randomly clicked the diffs links. This user seems to know what he is doing. He uses talk pages often, and discussion is an important part of being staff (whether asking users for opinions or helping other users). Something that shows that this user knows what he is doing, is all the recent categorisation in his contributions. Categorising is easy to know how to do, but what makes it hard is having to know the category system (there are alot of categories). So if he knows the category system, it is a sign that he might know alot about how the wiki works (if any of that makes sense). Matty, How would you use the new tools (see here for a list) to help the wiki? Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 08:14, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
