Co-ordinating Editors role:
+
WikiChristian needs writers and editors who are passionate about Jesus and who have thought about and studied carefully the issues of faith that they write about and edit. Any registered editor can be involved in this and can edit any unlocked article. This page does not list all editors. Rather it lists the senior editors whose role it is to pursue good content development in major areas of WikiChristian.
* To write original content for his/her area of special interest / expertise
 
* To monitor and when necessary adjust new content and edits being created by others in his/her area of special interest / expertise
 
* To aim to ensure that content is:
 
** Well organized
 
** Well written
 
** Written from both a kind and compassionate viewpoint as well as a viewpoint of truth and trust in the Gospel; in particular the content should fit the overall style and feel of WikiChristian and be in line with its statement of faith and vision; the content should not set out to offend or be divisive but it should also not try to hide Biblical truth; it should be written with humility with acknowledgement that there are shades of gray and varying opinions
 
** Not overly technical in language; able to be understood by the intelligent layman, but also useful to a student of theology
 
** Encouraging to faith and discipleship
 
** Accurate
 
** Relevant
 
** Detailed
 
  
Major areas needing one or two co-ordinating editors:
