Hi Tim, you asked about an "online CV".  To help me understand.. is the confusion concerning an online CV because people might not know what a CV "is" or whether they "needed" an online CV? --[[User:D. Matt Innis|Matt Innis]] [[User talk:D. Matt Innis|(Talk)]] 18:57, 1 April 2007 (CDT)

CV online

Hi Tim, you asked about an "online CV". To help me understand.. is the confusion concerning an online CV because people might not know what a CV "is" or whether they "needed" an online CV? --Matt Innis (Talk) 18:57, 1 April 2007 (CDT)

CV is Curriculum Vitae which is like a Resume for acedemics, doctors or PhDs. It shows all the articles that you might have written, or special accomodations, etc.. An example of an online CV would look like this [1]. We only need one for someone who wants to be an editor. To sign up as an author, we just need something that we could use to prove you are a real person and link your name to your IP address. The link you gave me to your blog was enough for me to see that you were who you said you were. So I set you up as an author. Now if you wanted to be an editor, that would be different. Then you would have to follow the Editor Application Review Procedure. I did notice several others that said they had no idea what a CV was when they applied. I think you are right, we need to address that on the Statement. Thanks for your input! --Matt Innis (Talk) 21:29, 1 April 2007 (CDT)
