Jorndel | Applying for Editor (Users Request)

Code:

Well, just some few persons asked me why I don't apply. I didn't see the need for it. Because I'm not going to write to much on the wiki.
What I do there, is more to administrate what others have done, and make the pages look more "user-friendly". I also upload & take images that I see is useful.
My English grammar isn't the best. So I'm more of an Supporter/Resource person for the Editors. And another thing I wonder... @ @Burgessjr said I was co-manager.Wonder what he meant with that.

Name: Jørn.B (Jorndel @ MPGH)
Age: 17 (22.Jan)
Time available: 0-24 Hours. (It all on what I'm doing and how motivated I'm that day.)
[But around 1 hour daily is spend on the wiki working, rest is just checking and doing small fixes]
Reason: Well, I do support and contribute with my "work". I do also think I can improve the user-interface for people, so it will be better for our users to use the wiki. I do already have contact with other people writing on it.

Some other things:

Code:

I don't think it's right to apply for Editor. It's about what you do, not what you're going to do. It's like Staff applications, we have to proven our will to contribute. And so we should do for the Wiki as well.  The motivation for people to write, should NOT be to get the user-tag and colored name. (Some apply for that so...)

What have I done?
I think I have already said that

And I attend to continue doing so.
As long there are people working on the wiki, and some don't finish the work proper.
I will continue to fix and work on the user-friendly'ness for the wiki. And I think, that is my main goal. And it's mainly what people focus on.

Name: Ahweii

Age: 16

Time available: standard working hours time. 9am - 5pm on Mondays to Friday, and Sunday. I'm in Singapore ( GMT+06:46:48 )

Reasons you should get this position: i have a mature mindset, goes into research of call of duty very frequently, good knowledge in CoD series, i speak with fairly apprehensible english most of the times. I've also been into FPS for quite sometime and would really have passion helping this COD WiKi out. I ace in literature and english too.
I've been trained in writing long essays of report regularly as one of a game operative in the past.
Im really excited and passionate to get this job. I've played long hours on cod and find out every detail as much as possible.

What have you done and what do you plan to do on the wiki: I've decided to help up on the weapons area as i know most of the weapons inside out. i unlocked the diamond camo myself without the ' CAMO EDITOR ' in the BO2 sections. i found a way to unlock diamond camo for LMG, SMG and Specials. So far i've visited the wiki once, and to be honest, there's not must in that wiki. i could give a guide to those people on how to rank their weapon up fast, and how to unlock the gold camo ASAP. I know someone has already posted on how to get the Diamond Camo on that wiki, but he or she is not giving enough info on how to use the weapon to the fullest. I could also share on some of the recommended classes i use, and why i chose that as a class.
