Left 4 Dead Wiki:Requests for Staff

Requests for staff (RfS) is the process by which the community decides who will become a Staff member. A user either submits his/her own request for a position on a staff team (a self-nomination) or is nominated by another user.

Support a User by leaving a signature and a reason why you support, and the same for not supporting. Non-constructive posts will be removed.

Staff members are decided through a person's contributions and their activity on the Wiki. Before requesting a staff position, take a look at where your edits lie. This also applies to supporting or opposing to a user's request. If they are lacking constructive edits or their edits are within a different field than the one they're applying for, they obviously aren't cut out for the job.

IPs are not allowed to edit this section.

Janitors
Janitors are users who are always on the lookout for spelling errors, useless information, run-on sentences, etc.

User:Nightmirage
I, Nightmirage, request to become a janitor here on the wiki. I check the wiki everyday, and when I have free time I can usually be found improving pages. I am a stickler for grammar, spelling, and capitalization. As a rising junior in college with a writing intensive major, I believe I have sufficient knowledge to be entrusted with cleaning up any mistakes in the aforementioned areas.

Some of my contributions:
 * I am continually working on capitalizing words that need to be capitalized (especially Survivor and Infected which are often neglected)


 * I check almost all edits to make sure run-on sentences or incorrect grammar have not been added.


 * I also check for spelling. I have always excelled in this subject, and if I am unsure I'm not afraid to get help from my trusty dictionary.


 * I am not at all hesitant to undo additions of useless/redundant/obvious information as my contributions show.

I've been on this wiki for over half a year now, and I would really like to be able to help with more than just regular editing. Thank you for your consideration. Nightmirage 23:56, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
