Well, Wiki-Editing was never really "big" for me at first. I was intrigued by the Assassin's Creed saga and after the teaser trailers for it, the forums were packed, and blogs were created by Staff showing signs of Active Staff and a widened community. We have many activities such as: A program of Recruits who've shown enough dedication to the Wiki to accumulate 500 edits. They're interviewed over the Internet Relay Chat (IRC) and are decided whether they're good enough to be Staff. From there, the Apprentice is assigned a Master and is trained and taught the basics of editing. Once reach 15 ranks, it's time for the most stressful part. THE NOMINATION, if the User is "Yay"d by Staff, he/she is granted rollback rights and inducted into Staff, if not then they're given rollback rights and shall resume their duties as a regular editor. They have rollback abilities and the ruling vote on article nominations. Trusted and proved users, they are members of the staff board, and participate in decisions and ideas related to wikichanges. The best way to prove yourself to be sysop material is here. Just clarifying semantics for those interested: Istruttorium is the organization, Istruttore is singular and Istruttori is plural. The meaning of the word is instructor, teacher or guider. Wiki mantainers. The most powerful rank in wiki below 'Crat, they can do pretty much everything and have a greater mobility. Admins usually spend most of their times making the wiki an awesome place just as Istruttori do, but if you mess with a sysop he can kick your ass. So always respect staff members (and everyone else for that matter). Editing normal pages like their own boss, they only take orders from themselves, but they also take warnings from others, so beware.
