@bjepson @mobilejoel @ekrasner1 Please review the outline above, and let me know if you'd like to edit anything by Monday.

@kpisano Thanks for this!

Couple thoughts

  1. For guidance and checklists, are there any sorts of content that would be favored / not favored? What contributions are we looking for essentially?
  2. Maybe we could provide an example of "high quality" post? I think @ekrasner1 could definitely provide some solid insights here.
  3. I wonder if there would be interest in working directly with certain community members to get authorship rights in the PVD Geeks WordPress, maybe after they've contributed a couple times and collaborated with @bjepson / @mobilejoel ) ? One thought is formatting of text / images, which may not translate well from one format (markdown / WYSIWYG) to WordPress' version of WYSIWYIG. These users would of course have limited permissions / access within the WP system.
