Looking for a new category to edit? A complete list of Help Wanted
categories in all subject branches is available at Test/Help
Wanted. However, there are a number of interesting categories with
a large number of unreviewed that deserve to be highlighted. Please note
that a call for help doesn't necessarily mean that the current editors
are doing a poor job - only that the category could use some extra attention.
Thanks to everyone who's signed up for a category from this list. Many
of last month's most desperate categories now have only a very small number
of unreviewed! Great job, everyone!

Note - when applying for any of these categories, please remember
that just because a category is listed doesn't mean metas will auto-approve
people for them. These categories will be treated like any other category
by metas when approving/rejecting category requests. If you're interested
in a category but don't think you have enough experience, consider applying
for one of its subcategories first.
Special Note!
Think you might like editing in the new Kids
and Teens branch? Why not give it a try? All ODP editors applying for
new permissions in Kids and Teens are evaluated on their knowledge of subject
areas, but even more important their willingness to help create a kids
and teens safe directory.
Kids and Teens needs experienced editors to develop the subcategories
under Your Family
such as Divorce,
Brothers
and Sisters, and Grandparents.
Editors are also needed to help develop Celebrity
and Movie
categories in Kids
and Teens/Entertainment and Dance
in the Kids and Teens/Arts
category. |
