− | This wiki has outgrown me over the years, and I'm uncertain how I can help. I am neither part of the Doom community nor a competent FPS player; mostly I've organized and summarized research by others. Let's also remember that Wikia's maintenance is my fault — note the timestamps [https://doomwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=&page=30%2C000_Levels&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=] [https://doomwiki.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ryan_W&oldid=79253#30.2C000_Levels] [http://community.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum%3AAR%3AAdoption_request_for_Doom_Wiki&action=history&year=2012&month=-1&tagfilter=]. At the very least, if you have a general question, try [https://doomwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Doom_Wiki:Central_Processing&action=edit§ion=new here] or [https://www.doomworld.com/forum/1-doom-general/ here].

− | <li>Stop users being hounded off the site based on "policies" that don't exist, are clearly disputed, or were written by one person a decade ago without discussion.</li>

| |
− | <li>For topics I know a little about (mostly [[Vanilla Doom|vanilla]] gameplay and associated [[Special:PermaLink/61280|levels]]), make all articles complete, [[Doom Wiki:Style|polished]], and easily navigable.</li>
| |
− | <li>For topics I know nothing about, find experts. I've no clue how to actually go about this — we are an all-volunteer project with none of the rewards of a forum or social media, so we can't just guilt-trip people to donate their time. The current level of participation is unsustainable, however, and we know that collaboration among experts [[zdoom:Main Page|can occur]].</li></ul>

− | === About being an [[Doom Wiki:Administrators|administrator]] ===
| |
− | | |
− | [[User talk:Ryan W/2007#Sysop|In 2007]], this was purely a technical position. I was permitted to do obvious and tedious tasks (deleting someone's vacation photos, cleaning up my test templates, banning neo-Nazis) without filing paperwork each time. In return, if I didn't comprehend some of my new tools, I was expected to ask for help before [[Doom Wiki:Central Processing/2014#Misuse of Interwiki extension|breaking anything]].

− | | |
− | Since the {{dwforums|id=52973|title=fork}}, its meaning has changed to be more like a forum mod: enforcing an overall project "vision" above and beyond stated consensus, teaching new users about contributing, maintaining relationships with the rest of the internet. I don't believe I'm at all qualified for these, and I certainly don't meet [[Doom Wiki:Central Processing/2015#Openings for new admins|the criteria]] from the most recent thread. As of July 2017, I think I'm doing a VERY VERY SMALL amount of good (spam, page moves, system message typos), but obviously I could be wrong.
