ADMINISTRATIVE SETUP OF SOC.RELIGION.ISLAM
Date: 15 Nov 91 02:45:12 GMT
(Greg Woods)
As you may or may not know, this group is multiply moderated. This means
that all postings are mailed to a program here which randomly selects
a moderator from a fixed list and forwards the posting on. I do not
read this group and have no connection with it other than maintaining
the multiple moderator software and making temporary adjustments to the
list of moderators (for example, when a moderator goes on vacation s/he
asks me to remove him/her from the moderator list while gone).
_____________________________________________________________________________
PROCEDURE FOR SELECTING NEW MODERATORS
The current moderators post an announcement for new moderators on S.R.I.
All interested applicants are sent a copy of guidelines and a list of
questions.
References from others are appreciated. Each new moderator has unanimous vote
of current moderators. The new moderators must:
1. Have some understanding of Islam (not necessarily a Muslim).
2. Agree with guidelines of Soc.Religion.Islam.
3. Be able to recognize flames/insults.
4. Have experience with USENET, preferrably a reader of SRI and have taken
some participation in discussions.
5. Be willing to volunteer at least 2-4 hrs of time for S.R.I. per week.
6. Secure unanimous vote from all current moderators.
_____________________________________________________________________________
SOC.RELIGION.ISLAM GUIDELINES
