How many hours can you dedicate to your task at hand throughout the whole week? Describe where possible: Seeing as I would love to have some sort of input into this community in one way or another, 10hours a week could easily see my dedication onto the subject.
When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?: One strength would definitely by my array of application, whatever the task my writing sculpts so that the outcome is as desired. A weakness seen throughout would definitely be my inability to be boxed into a writing authority. I thoroughly enjoy my style, and really find it hard to conform with structures for publication.
Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is:
Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?: Platform as in..? If you are talking about my own personal publication platform or just the ability to produce; either or im sure this answers it https://chumwrites.wordpress.com <- old work but still relevant nonetheless.
Are you comfortable with doing the research required for writing the article yourself?: Yes 100%, researching on my own is definitely preferred as it helps me grasp the biggest picture/ input my own quirks into the researched information.
Do you see yourself going inactive anytime soon?: Not really, have always dabbled in the forums as a viewer so don't see why actually producing articles would drive me to go inactive.

How many hours can you dedicate to your task at hand throughout the whole week? Describe where possible: After classes and work, I'd be willing to commit at least five hours during the weekdays. Weekends are much more flexible for me and so I could adjust to however many hours that'd be needed to finish my task load. Five hours at minimum for the weekend.

When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?: My biggest strength is being able to read from a 3rd person. When I write a post or give information to someone, I try to separate when the reader knows, and what the reader wants to know. An exaggerated but relevant example would be like trying to teach a high school student how to launch a space shuttle. There are a lot of pre-requisite knowledge you would need--like advanced physics, calculating heat dissipation through differential equations, astronomy, mechanical engineering, and etc.. The basis of a well-written entry starts by knowing what information your audience has access to. From the first word to the last, I attempt to fill in the "gaps" of knowledge through explanations. Writing becomes inefficient and pointless if your audience has no clue what you're talking about to begin with.

Which brings me to my next point. My biggest weakness is time. When I write, I write slowly. Creating an entry requires research and double-checking facts. Creating factual inaccuracies are the absolute worst thing you can do as a writer--especially if your position holds influence. For example, I spent an unnecessary amount of time researching and thinking about best way to describe 'a person who goes to high school.' In my head, I went through the possible options of using: highschoolers, high-schoolers, high-school students, or high school student. No doubt that any of these options would have served its purpose just as well as the next, but it's definitely a weakness.

Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is: I've never held a paid position in writing. My only formal contributions were for a professional Counter-Strike player on the website tarik.gg. The project was short-lived, and I only had the opportunity to write a couple eSports related entries.

Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?: Yes. I have a suitable workplace that allows me to write with minimal distractions. My method of writing lengthy paragraphs usually starts by me opening up a fresh Word document (or Pages in the case of my Mac) and working from there. I find it much easier to read and re-arrange my syntax, and then just pasting it into my workflow.

Are you comfortable with doing the research required for writing the article yourself?: I'm perfectly capable of researching information for my articles in the works. This is an excellent quality to have as a writer, but purposefully confining yourself like this can become inefficient. Asking people for help--whether it be for an opinion, leads for research, tips, a starting point, can save you so much time. Sharing information with your peers does nothing but good. It speeds up the creative process, and can help make mental connections to produce unique content.

Do you see yourself going inactive anytime soon?: No. I currently have no reason to to inactive at this time. I am a full-time student however, and so there may be times where I may have to shift my focus throughout the week. I will try my best to manage my schedule and honor my time commitment to the Writers.

How many hours can you dedicate to your task at hand throughout the whole week? Describe where possible:

I can dedicate a solid fifteen hours per week, and an additional five to ten hours depending on my schedule for that week.

When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?:

My greatest strength is also my greatest weakness. I have a subconscious tendency to write at a reading level that is higher than what most people are used to.

Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is:

If the question is specific to HackForums, then no.

Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?:

Yes.

Are you comfortable with doing the research required for writing the article yourself?:

Absolutely.

Do you see yourself going inactive anytime soon?:

I can't see myself leaving this forum any time soon.

[Nuworld]

Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?:

I'm not exactly sure what is meant by "platform". Some elaboration would be helpful.

A platform would be for example.
Note pad, Note pad ++, Word, PDF and or any other platform to write with.

Thank you for clarifying.

[Emily Brontë]

How many hours can you dedicate to your task at hand throughout the whole week? Describe where possible: Throughout the week I am able to dedicate anywhere from 2-3 hours daily (excluding Saturday).
When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?: When writing I tend to repeat myself as I get further into a piece as I lose my train of thought at the worst times. However I am able to bounce back relatively quickly to deliver quality work. A strength I possess is simply the ethic of work and dedication to the task at hand. I do not quit until the piece is so good that I would be willing to turn it in myself for review with 100% confidence in my abilities. Quality comes first in my writings.
Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is: I have not written for a group, but have ran an essay writing service as well as written for several services. Nothing I have submitted was late or lacking quality, and I pride myself on this.
Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?: Yes my setup is amazing.
Are you comfortable with doing the research required for writing the article yourself?: As a student and military service member who has had to put maximum effort into nearly everything, doing the work required to produce exemplary content is no issue to me.
Do you see yourself going inactive anytime soon?: No HF is life

When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?: I have a strength of creativity and the ability to write unique paragraphs in a short period of time. A weakness I have would be that I sometimes make typos when typing very fast.

Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is: Yes I used to write for a tech blog which then evolved into an Apple News Channel. Sadly, that blog has been discontinued dude to lack of motivation by the team.

Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?: Yes I can do that on my MacBook Pro like I've always done.
If by platform you mean software, then yes that is something I surely have.

Please note that we're not fussy about perfect grammar or even spelling. We need people who can dedicate time to the Wiki, lookup sources and write proper information regularly. All your submissions will be edited for grammar mistakes and spelling, so it is not the most important thing. Just be sure you can write comfortably for long periods of time and do research.

3) The third stage is where an applicant's vocabulary and grammar expertise is put to the test.

As much as we try to give everyone carte blanche in their duties, being a journalist/Flagger though has its own rules and stipulations. The basics of them are:

• Knowing how to draw, understand and act according to the borderline of seriousness and having fun.
  
• Having a sense of professionalism when writing an article, especially from a third person's point of view.
  
• Knowing how to adjust an article's foundation at critical moments (objective to subjective [and vice versa], etc)
  
• Knowing the basics of writing an article.

How many hours can you dedicate to your task at hand throughout the whole week? Describe where possible:
It depends on the week and the task assigned to be quite honest; anywhere from 5 hours to 15 hours can be dedicated in a week for HF Wiki. While I cannot give you an exact amount of time for each week, I can say that the task at hand will be done to the best of my ability each time.

When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?:
Strength: Being able to write an intellectual sentence and find sources to back my claims.
Weakness: My choice of words can be awkward sometimes and it must be revised for clarification.
Other: I would also like to note that there is always room for improvement for me; I failed my (reading and) writing SOLs in Elementary school, but now I am a 4.00 student in college.

---

Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is:
I suppose I have for some school assignments, but nothing significant (i.e year book).

---

Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?:
No preference, but I write in Word 2016 most of the time for my papers. I can use Notepad++, Google Doc, or HF Draft System too.

---

Are you comfortable with doing the research required for writing the article yourself?:
Well, this a good question for me. I absolutely love researching for knowledge and hate researching due to the time consumtpion, but my curiosity drives me to keep researching. Although it is not finished, this is a thread project I started. Most of the time I do not write that way online, however, I write in detail like that for my classes; I would be more than happy to show some of my writings I have done for this past and current semester.

---

Do you see yourself going inactive anytime soon?:
For exam week I will go inactive. Also, I plan on working full time during the summer, so during those hours I will not be online.

I want to fix that user group page so badly, it's outdated. 🤣

Almost forgot to make this the most beautiful application ever.
[sp]

Since I didn't even make it to the interview stage, the only other thing i have to say is fix the damn user group pages. Thanks.

How many hours can you dedicate to your task at hand throughout the whole week? Describe where possible: I have 6-7 hours free time every night after work which should be more than enough required.

When it comes to writing in the English language, what is one strength and weakness you typically see throughout your writing?: My weakness would be that I can sometimes rush my writing and not go into as much detail as I probably could/should have, however I'd put that down to the amount of writing I have to do at work. I've never really done any other form of writing outside of work so I believe this issue would be non existent if I were a member of the HackForums writing team.

As for my one strength, I would highlight my strong vocabulary. I have an extensive knowledge of the English language and can almost always find a substitute for any word. I understand thoroughly what a certain word pertains to, where certain words are applicable, making the appropriate selection depending on the sentence etc. I have a lot of other strengths however I understand you have asked for one singular strength.

Have you ever written for another team/group/purpose? If yes, please state who the group in interest is: I have to write summaries of incident reports at my workplace. Basically, anything that involves an injured staff member, damaged job, unsafe working procedure etc is followed up by an immediate incident report. I have to research what happened in thorough detail which includes interviewing staff members, inspecting jobs and machines, watching security camera footage and then write a report that goes to the production manager.

Do you have a platform on where you can write large paragraphs comfortably?: Yes, of course. With the amount of writing I do daily, this is a must have.

Are you comfortable with doing the research required for writing the article yourself?: Yes, 100 percent. Research is definitely not an issue for me as I have to research every incident at my workplace (explained previously). I would say I excel in research and that it is probably my biggest strength in general.

Do you see yourself going inactive anytime soon?: No.
