I can tackle this. --Robert W King 15:47, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
Sounds great! (If you're not actually working on AZ yourself.) --Larry Sanger 15:51, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
- Whoops, nevermind then!--Robert W King 15:51, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
- Wait, do you mean if I'm working for the Assignment Zero staff as in one of them who runs the project or if I'm a contributor?
Actually, I think there's a difference between staff and rank-and-file contributor. If you're the latter, I guess that's OK. After all, we want to have an article about CZ, but the Policy on Self-Promotion forbids me from working on it. Who could work on it, then? The rank-and-file, anyway. --Larry Sanger 16:02, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
- My question is who could approve a CZ article. :-) ---Stephen Ewen 17:43, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
- I suppose that as long as I'm documenting the project as it is, and not praising or criticizing it(keeping neutral) then it should be okay. I have no special interests in the way AZ is run as I'm not there to make it a success or not--I don't pull those strings. If you approve, then I'll create the article.--Robert W King 16:10, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
I approve! --Larry Sanger 17:30, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
- Then by Sanger's Grace it will begin tomorrow. --Robert W King 21:35, 24 April 2007 (CDT)
How does it work?
No explanation of that on the article--that's what I want to know. --Larry Sanger 14:04, 25 April 2007 (CDT)
- Still working on it.--Robert W King 14:43, 25 April 2007 (CDT)
US centric?
Is AZ just US centric or does it actively discourage participation by folks outwith the US of A?
I ask because of this parenthetical statement in the current article: "we're all scattered all over the U.S. and communicate electronically."
