As you've probably noticed, many of the classes the Wikipedia Ambassador Program is supporting this term are getting active. Adding some or all the course pages to your watchlist is a great way to jump right into the ambassador role.
Compared to last term, this set of classes will be active on-wiki much sooner, and on average they will have more extensive Wikipedia assignments, with milestones spread throughout the term.
Right now we have 30 classes, 57 Campus Ambassadors, and 50 Online Ambassadors. Look for all those numbers to increase over the next few weeks. We especially need more Online Ambassadors who can serve as mentors for students, so please invite other editors you've worked with who know the ropes to apply!
Online Ambassadors: If you haven't added your profile to the list of available mentors, please do so!
When a student asks you to be his or her mentor, or if you are paired up with a student from a class in which students are assigned mentors, be sure to:
If you reach the point where you are mentoring all the students you want to, you can move your entry on the mentors table down to the lower "Additional Online Ambassadors" section, or simply mark "FULL" in the first column.
