</div>

== The steps ==
; 1. Volunteer
: Where everyone starts — Submitter, Sorter, or Confirm. Your work goes into a private review queue; nothing you touch is public until an admin approves it. Just do your role well.
; 2. Trusted volunteer
: After around '''25 solid contributions''' and a clean record, you can request a review from your profile. Trusted volunteers can '''edit article pages directly''' and '''upload media''' — you're no longer confined to the queues.
; 3. Editor
: For volunteers who've shown sustained, accurate work. Full content editing and page moves across the wiki. '''By invitation''' from the team.
; 4. Admin
: For volunteers who've shown consistent judgement over time. Admins publish confirmed records, handle the queues, and keep people safe. '''By invitation only''' — admins are chosen, never self-appointed, because the role can see and act on everything.

== How to move up ==
* '''To trusted volunteer:''' hit ~25 contributions, then use the '''Request a trusted-volunteer review''' button on your profile.
* '''Editor and admin:''' no application — the team watches for consistent, careful work and reaches out. The best way to get there is simply to keep doing good work.

== What we look for ==
* Accuracy over speed. A wrong record is worse than a slow one.
* Care with people's safety and privacy.
* Following the [[ICE List:Volunteer guide|volunteer guide]] and sourcing everything.
