Do you have a wealth of phanfiction knowledge that you want to put to good use? Spend your free time trolling our “not found” tag and think how did they not find this one??? Want to make some new friends from all around the world and work on a big, collaborative project with them? Well…
The Phanfiction Catalogue is now accepting applications for new admins!
Before applying, please read the following:
We are looking for people who can give significant time and effort to running and improving the blog. Please only apply if this job is something you can really commit to!
A reliable computer is necessary. Editing within the theme is about 70% of the work on this blog and it’s not possible to do from mobile.
We get a lot of asks per day - sometimes we can have up to 100 asks in our inbox. Patience and the ability to give consistent answers are key.
There is no way to avoid potentially triggering fics/content as an admin. Please keep that in mind when deciding whether or not to apply.
What does being an admin include?
finding lost fics / responding to asks, and tagging those asks appropriately
fixing broken links on both the catalogue and the library
adding fics and authors to the library via html
creating masterlists of a wide variety of genres
other regular blog maintenance and upkeep
Fill out this first general information survey (you will have one week from today, September 2, to complete this part of the application).
If you’re chosen to move on, you will then complete a second, more in-depth application.
If you’re chosen to move on from the second round, interviews will be conducted over a WhatsApp chat.
After interviews, the new admins will be chosen!
We will message you over Tumblr if you’ve made it to the next round, so please keep your ask boxes open.
We will make a post when we’ve sent out all messages for that round.
If you change urls during the time of admin applications, please let us know asap!
Any questions, feel free to ask! Please send them off anon if possible so we aren’t flooding the blog with questions. We’ll tag all the posts with #admin applications.
Click on the picture to be taken to the survey (if the picture link isn’t working, click here). Applications for the first round will close on Sunday, September 9 at noon EST.
