I don’t know who suggested that you attempt Mothership, but I think they did you a disservice by suggesting it. Not only are we full as far as Mothership Capacity, but we over actually over capacity. One of our Motherships is on Hiatus, so we promoted another, so we have 6 out of 5 Motherships. Besides being full, there are a great many individuals vying for newly opening Mothership positions, all of them are staff who started at the bottom of the ladder, & deserve preferential treatment because of their hard work.

I suggested to attempt Chat Mod, because we have a slot open, & your moderation experience would be ideal there, but mainly you seemed interested in updating our pages with your knowledge. You don’t need Staff Rights for that. However, there may soon be a position open that, while not explicitly staff, is respected & denotes seasoned editors. On Saturday it will be formalized, so it may be the title you want, but for the moment we cannot accept Motherships who have not had experience on Staff, nor is your experience, prodigious though it is, enough to go directly to Content Mod, which is why I suggested Chat Mod.

You are welcome to attempt the Mothership position anyway, but Mothership positions require a Staff Vote. After 24 hours if this Résumé still has a majority poll of the public, then I will call a Special Staff Vote, & highlight this thread. If you win that vote then you will be admitted to the Waiting List for Motherships, but I am doubtful that you will.

Good luck.
