CZ Talk:Editorial Council

Created CZ: Editorial Council with election information, and moved the previous contents to CZ: Editorial Council/Pre-2010 Election Howard C. Berkowitz 02:00, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

This page change was not authorised by the Editorial Council and is therefore not the official page. Since there are no actual errors of fact, I will leave it in this state for the time being, until the EC decides what should appear here. Martin Baldwin-Edwards 04:21, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

If the Editorial Council will have to convene to authorize every page change it will be quite a while before they get to any actual Citizendium business, don't you think? David Finn 06:40, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

It's the format that is the issue; normally the Secretary is responsible for making official changes, anyway. I am leaving it as it is, since it's preferable to outdated info. Martin Baldwin-Edwards 07:04, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Fair enough. I guess I am used to regular citizendium pages where changes you don't like can quickly be undone. Probably best to ask that this page be locked right away and a draft page started, that way no danger of non-EC members editing it by mistake. David Finn 07:28, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I do not think that locking the page is needed. Unwanted edits can easily be reverted. --Peter Schmitt 10:13, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Official recognition of expertise

Article 14 of the Charter states

Editors are Citizens whose expertise in some field of knowledge is recognized and formally acknowledged by the community. Official recognition of expertise — obtained through education or experience — and its scope shall be based on guidelines established by the Editorial Council.

I hereby request the Editorial Council to provide these guidelines. --Daniel Mietchen 01:21, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Daniel, there is a start to this under expertise management in the CZ Wiki. It will have to align closely with knowledge management. Howard C. Berkowitz 01:36, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
