Talk:How do some Scratchers get special roles in Scratch?

Four months?

It says on this article that you can become an SDS curator by being "active, and helpful, for four months". But, is this "four months" thing actually true? Because I haven't seen it anywhere else on Scratch. It usually just says "a long period of time". So, where exactly did four months come from?

Thanks

Hm, good point, didn't Hamish become one before 4 months? I think it could be changed.

Yeah, so there's no way that's actually true. Should I just take out the four months, and replace it with "a long period of time", then?

When, I wrote this article, I was under the impression that it was 4 months. That's what the official project on SDS-Updates says as well. However, yes, I was chosen at 3 months and 2 weeks. I was a bit confused too, but this might help.

So, generally, we look for curators who have been active for 4+ months. But exceptions can be made to the criteria, namely these three rules:

• Have they been on Scratch for more then 4 months?
• Are they trustworthy, and have had no cases of harming Scratch in the past?
• Are they ban- free? Meaning, they've never been banned in the past.

In conclusion, I think we should change it to:

“

active, and helpful, for four months (although some exceptions can be made)

”

Hope that helps!

First Person?

Does the "you"s need to be edited out of the article? I find the reason for needed editing quite confusing. Thanks,

Scratch Stability Team

This article says there is a Scratch Stability Team. But to my knowledge, there is not one.

The Scratch Stability Team have an article on the Scratch Wiki. However, it is now inactive, and there has been no activity from it for years.
