- Please add your name to the list if you wish to help, and remove yourself when you do not intend to contribute further. The former waiting list has been deprecated. It is hoped that the law of supply and demand will result in a balance between having too few clerks who are overworked and having too many clerks who are bored. If you do not make any clerk-like edits to the RfCU area for too long a period of time, you may be removed from the list above. You may add your name back, but be sure to clerk regularly.
- Clerks should be users who are in relatively good standing within the community, and are experienced with Wikipedia. Clerks should have a good working knowledge of Wikipedia policy, especially in the area of sockpuppets and the situations where checkuser is important. Clerks are asked to keep the Clerks' noticeboard on their watchlist to be kept informed of procedural changes and requests from the checkusers.
- Trust between the clerks and the checkusers is essential. Clerks who persistently make problematic comments on requests or otherwise violate decorum may be asked by the checkusers to cease contributing here. Be aware that this position is rather dull and carries no particular prestige; status-seeking will not be looked upon kindly.
[edit] Guide
A guide to clerk activities can be found at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Procedures. This provides an overview of what clerks should do, shouldn't do, as well as examples of how to go about it.
[edit] Noticeboard
There is a clerk noticeboard at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Clerks/Noticeboard; clerks are asked to keep it on their watchlist and attend to requests where they can. This is for requests from checkusers as well as coordination among the clerks.
[edit] IRC channel
There is an IRC channel #wikipedia-checkuser-clerks for coordination among clerks and between clerks and checkusers. If you would like to use the IRC channel and the bot, please ask GeorgeMoney, Luna Santin, or MichaelBillington for an invite exception. If you would like an auto-voice please ask Mackensen for being added to the access list. The manual to the bot is User:GeorgeMoney/IRC/Bot/Clerk.
