Wanted - Chief Wikifier

The MiniTrade is seeking a person capable of performing the following tasks:
Maintaining an up to date "Wanted Page" of required articles.
Organise said page by priority.
Checking the quality of pages applying for bounty.
Paying the bounty if page meets quality and removing it from "Wanted Pages".

Though ShireWiki does a "wanted page" automatically, this numbers almost 1500, and many are of low or no priority. The Chief Wikifier would make their own, separate page, organised in lots "150" "100" and "50", where "150" were the most important pages. MiniTrade would then pay that amount for the successful completion of the page (to the Chief Wikifier's satisfaction). Though the ordering of this list would be left largely to the Chief Wikifier's discretion, as a suggestion, essential pages would include every current County being done. MiniTrade would start by transferring 1000 to the Chief Wikifier's bank, and the Chief Wikifier would then transfer that money to others as pages were completed, and come back to MiniTrade when that 1000 is exhausted. The Chief Wikifier would be paid separately via bounties, with an initial bounty of 250 for the completion of the initial "Wanted Page".

Those interested should apply in this thread.

If you want, by all means apply for the job. I don't mind who does it, as long as someone does it, and does it well.

I wouldn't mind being responsible for ShireWiki. I've been trying to secure permission from the Anticans, Benacians, and Alexandrians to use some of their wiki articles... ShireWiki can be the new MicroWiki if we work at it! :)

So are you both applying, and I have to decide between you?

Hey, I'm the Kaiser!! :kaiser :angry


so appoint Maksym.

Maksym,
ShireWiki can be the new MicroWiki if we work at it!
We were microwiki. Most content on microwiki (and others) was originally from Shirewiki when it was called Microwiki. Shirewiki imploded once, and had to be glued back together. :document (See my pretty medal.)

The decison was made to make it more local, but then the MNN-wiki melted down, and we restored a lot of deleted articles.

BTW, under the conditions of a wiki, they are open-source, so technically you don't need permission to copy them.

Attribution is a nice thing......

Anyway, we should get some sort of consensus from the community if we intend to replaced MNN-wiki.

MicroWiki is here: http://micronations.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

I stand corrected, then :document
Well, MicroWiki isn't really a Micras Sector wiki. It's more for seccessionists- at least it seems that way to me.
MicrasWiki is a lost cause, I'd say...
I'd petition renaming ShireWiki again to a more internationalist approach... then again, I do most of my cultural development on ShireWiki, so it wouldn't be too much of a hassle for me to be Chief Wikifier.
Yeah, consider me an applicant. A very enthusiastic one at that :)

Accepted, on two conditions.
1. You do up a basic "Wanted Page" within, say, 2 weeks (earlier is better)
2. You're aware that though you're welcome to do other pages up, MiniTrade is only paying for articles relevant to Shireroth. That includes nations that Shireroth has had significant interaction with, but we're not here to fund the entire sector ...

MicroWiki is a strange duck. For some odd reason, :D a plurality articles relate to Shireroth than to any other subject.

(And the 2nd largest category was the FRC. I wonder how that could have happened.)
