So, we never did get any kind of training documentation started. I have two new volunteers who would love to help mod videos \u2013 how shall we get them started?<\/p>\n

Suggested process:<\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  1. Read through the Submission Guidelines<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Read through this P2P2<\/span> P2 or O2 is the term people use to refer to the Make WordPress blog. It can be found at https:\/\/make.wordpress.org<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> for context and history. It\u2019s not that long. \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n
  3. TagTag<\/span> Tag is one of the pre-defined taxonomies in WordPress. Users can add tags to their WordPress posts along with categories. However, while a category may cover a broad range of topics, tags are smaller in scope and focused to specific topics. Think of them as keywords used for topics discussed in a particular post.<\/span><\/span><\/span> a video to \u201cclaim\u201d it for review. <\/li>\n
  4. Watch the video. <\/li>\n
  5. Post any questions to this site.<\/li>\n
  6. If you\u2019re certain it meets our standards for accuracy and video\/audio quality, post to this site that you think it should be published.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    For your first 3 videos, your trainer will review the video too, to make sure you haven\u2019t missed anything. After that, you\u2019ll be able to schedule videos for publication independently.<\/p>\n

    IMPORTANT: We only schedule 3-5 videos for publication per day. This is to avoid spamming all the people who are subscribed to WordPress.tv. Please don\u2019t publish a whole slew of videos at a time, because sadness.<\/p>\n

    ALSO IMPORTANT: This blog is public, though it does discourage search engines. If a question comes up with a video that might be sensitive, we try to be discreet with people\u2019s names.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    Please suggest changes\/additions\/deletions. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
