| Is adoption right for me? | ||
| Adoption is a voluntary mentoring program through which potential adoptees undergo a mentoring period in which they learn about the basics of Wikipedia, Wikiquette and how to best contribute to the encyclopedia. Adoption is for users who are still new and want to learn about the various aspects that are necessary in keeping Wikipedia accurate and free from defamatory, racial or discriminative material which is overall damaging to the project in that it hinders the progress of the good-faith people who want to help and make the encyclopedia as whole an enjoyable learning environment.
For users who have some experience you might be looking for Admin Coaching instead, admin coaching is also a voluntary mentoring program. The only difference is that the Admin Coaching program is for users who want to become administrators in the near future. Both programs are highly successful, users who participate in either program become more confident in themselves and learn valuable skills. | ||
| What I look for in an adoptee | ||
| What I look for in an adoptee is an eager, willing and positive attitude towards contributing to Wikipedia, every adoptee has different likes and dislikes as such my lessons are only the basic foundation of my program, I aim to teach each new Wikipedian the basics. I will teach adoptees based on their interests, not mine.
There is no need to rush, adoptees should take their time in doing set tasks so that they can progress steadily. That said there is nothing wrong with completeing a task early, so long as the adoptee learns that is what matters. | ||
