Gardeners primarily monitor, clean up and organize content, and generally make sure everything is running smoothly.

Compared to regular contributors, Gardeners watch the recent changes across the wiki to make sure the content added (or removed) is coherent, appropriate and properly organized. Through this process they also assist other contributors in using the wiki. To continue the metaphor, these Gardeners grow, nurture and weed on the wiki.

Anyone able to commit to regularly visiting and monitoring the wiki is welcome to become a Gardener. Sign your username on the Discussion page to register your interest.
