In need of RTB Wiki editors

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

As most of you know, the RTB wiki was recently taken down. Nobody seemed to use it, it wasn’t very organized and it was infested with spam bots. We’re working on getting it up and running again and better than before. The biggest change is that this will no longer be just an RTB wiki documenting RTB, but an RTB and Event wiki, complete with a database of event contraptions uploaded by our users.

We would like to invite the community to come help set it up. This isn’t for general use yet- there’s lots of rough edges. We’ve got a skeleton main page, no help section and only a couple of articles. You will need to use special pages and the search tool to navigate, we don’t have a finalized structure yet.

If you have a skill you think would be valuable, please mention it. Include a sample of your work: links to tutorials you’ve written and would like to upload to the wiki, any work you’ve done on other wikis, or if you’re interested in layout, a website with a nice table you made using CSS. However, you are not required to have any of these skills in order to participate, if you’re interested in just writing some articles and helping out in general, you’re welcome to apply.

At the moment we are only looking for around ~5 people but we will slowly expand this group. Eventually there will be a beta to invite the general community to come and upload their own guides.

Your job will include writing articles, templates, and tables. Your work will ultimately determine the organizational structure and the look of the final public release.

When your application is accepted you will be added to the RTB wiki usergroup, gain access to the RTB wiki sub-forum, and get permission to view and edit the rtb wiki itself shortly afterwards.

To apply, please post in this thread.
