Gynopedia moderators are people who help translate existing Gynopedia pages into other languages. There are no formal professional or educational requirements. However, you should be a fluent speaker/writer of the language that you want to translate, and you should feel comfortable working independently.

Now, as a translator, you have A LOT more privileges than a basic contributor. This means that there’s a great deal of trust involved, so you'll need to first go through a basic screening process before we grant you translator privileges. As an FYI, this is just to be on the safe side, since Gynopedia deals with some sensitive subject matter. We definitely won’t interrogate you -- just ask a few questions to confirm that you’re genuinely interested in translation (rather than spamming, trolling or wreaking havoc on the website), ask you to be transparent about why you're interested in the project and what you hope to get out of it, and confirm that you're a collaborative problem-solver.
