Advising new users is a powerful responsibility. You are guiding the future of the Fandom, and may be developing the next generation of wiki leaders!
To help you in this awesome task, we have created some guiding principles:
- Be sure to know the wiki's rules and abide by them as you guide your apprentices.
- Take care to not get in the way of other users and listen to their comments and opinions.
- Be kind, gentle, and patient. Remember, you are advising not telling your apprentice what to do.
- Encourage communication at every step. Not only with you, but with other community members.
- If your apprentice becomes frustrated or angry, respond with calmness and politeness. If they continue to be unreasonable, explain that you won't continue to advise them if necessary.
- If you don't know what they need, ask them to explain more, don't guess.
- If you don't know how to help, ask someone who does, or help your apprentice use the forum.
- Allow your apprentice to grow at their own pace, but encourage them to try new things.
- Have fun! It can be very satisfying to help someone take their first wiki steps, you could be setting up someone with a passion that will last them years!
Please sign below to show your agreement with these principles and your commitment to working with your apprentices to help them grow into both competent editors, and valuable community members.
