We are a wiki website that focuses on the criticism of Islam. Please see our [[WikiIslam|About]] and [[FAQ]] pages for additional information. We are looking for an Social Psychology intern or student who can help increase editing activity on the website and identify issues that prevent an increase in such activity. We have a long lists of [[WikiIslam:Tasks|tasks]] that we need editors to do. You will not be involved in these tasks but you'll be looking at how to increase editing activity so we can get these tasks done.

You may take this role if:
* you are seeking an internship, or
* you are doing a project about Online Communities, or
* you are writing a research paper where you could write about what you learned from this experience, what you implemented and what the results were.

This is a very creative role where you have to figure out what needs to be done to attain the goals mentioned on this page.

# Optional task: Making the website more user friendly for readers
# Prior experience in website community growth, or leadership positions in other scenarios and education/experience in Web design can help (but is not required)

Required Skills/Education/Experience:
* If you have been an editor on Wikipedia before, that can help.
* Coursework in Psychology or Social Psychology where human-website and human-human interaction was studied (or similar coursework)
* Creativity and a willingness to take initiative
* Excellent written communication skills
* Attention to detail and exceptionally organized
* Optional: Familiarity with Mediawiki software and how it can be modified to implement changes in the interface or any part of the website (other than directly editing pages as they normally are).
