Hey, I worked hard on those puns. :(

*sulks*

Bonus points for people who pun in their application

I'd apply, but alas, I don't have as much free time as I used to. D8 Good luck to those who apply!
 
Re: Bulbawikis start staff recruitment drive: Want to be on staff? Hit us with your b

Good Luck to all the applicants! :D

Oh, this sounds like fun! Writing is one of my strongest (if not my strongest) points. I think I could really contribute something here :-D But, I've never used bulbawiki before :( And all I have to show (for my writing) is the latest short story I wrote, and an essay from last semester.

I can still write stuff for bulbanews though, yeah? Do you just a pick a topic at random and submit it, or...?
Thanks :)

Sorry if I'm not supposed to ask here .-.

If you've got news to report, any user can create an account and write an article with the new article assistant. Regular users' articles written in such a manner get submitted to the "Draft" namespace and must be published by a staff member. Writers/Reporters can choose to publish their article straight away, skipping that extra step.

Columnists are expected to write the 'opinion pieces' such as would be found in a normal newspaper - something based in fact, but which may be considered opinionated or unconfirmed, for example an analysis of a Pokémon in competitive battles. Something not too dissimilar from several of the National Bulbagraphic articles, but not a one-off piece (The idea isn't to steal content from National Bulbagraphic, but to supplement it.)

The only question I want to know is that if you get paid or not? If so, then hell yeah!

Thank you for the response, Werdnae ^^ I may just have to do that.

I would be interested in applying, as I am huge fan of the bulbapedia website in general having lurked around on it for several years now >.>;;

The only thing I can show to demonstrate my writing is some fanfiction and poetry I have uploaded online.. but I did in the past run my own forum and moderate for a couple of friends on a forum they owned. I am also very new as a member does it matter how long you've been a member of the forums?

To apply for Bulbapedia you must have been a member for at least six months and have at least 500 mainspace edits.
 
Re: Bulbawikis start staff recruitment drive: Want to be on staff? Hit us with your b

A member of the forums or Bulbapedia? Or both?

Something I've been curious about; how long does it take to get notified of being hired? Would I know shortly after I file my application, or are you holding it off until the 25th to get in contact with all the successful applicants?
 
Re: Bulbawikis start staff recruitment drive: Want to be on staff? Hit us with your b

We are holding off until after the 25th to make contact with shortlisted candidates.
 
Re: Bulbawikis start staff recruitment drive: Want to be on staff? Hit us with your b

I see, thank-you for replying.
 
Re: Bulbawikis start staff recruitment drive: Want to be on staff? Hit us with your b

Last day!

If you're been thinking about going for this but haven't come to a decision yet, you need to make your mind up :p
