Would you be able to commit to having an article done by the 20th of this month?
Would you like to write this article again in the future?
Item Watch
- The people who write these articles should be willing to brave the GCD and the Site Feedback forum on the first few days after any new items release. They should be able to incorporate the opinions of other Gaians as well as their own into this article. If they choose, they can speculate it's impact on the economy, but that can also be left for the Market Watch article.

Featured [something] Writer
- These writers will conduct interviews with the various people featured in our publication. The people who have been honored with the month's featured profile, featured journal, featured home, and those who win the avatar arena between the 20th of the previous month and the 20th of the current month, will all be featured. In addition, this publication will be choosing a charity, roleplay, and project to feature, in order to cover a broader spectrum of the community. Please note that many of the people who are featured do shut off their PMs and friends requests while they are featured, so you may have to find alternate ways to contact the featured person. If you need help with this, let us know instead of just not doing the article.

Writers who write articles for at least 3 seperate months will be considered Staff Writers, and will recieve a small amount of compensation for each article they write from then on. Depending on money brought in through donations and through advertisments, this amount could grow, and as such it is not set (as we won't be paying anyone til at least December). Any staff writer who provides no articles for 3 consecutive months will no longer be considered a staff writer, and will have to start over.
