Unlike many public wikis, the Lost Plays Database is not open to public editing: for quality control, potential contributors must apply to the editors for contributing privileges. This is a 2-step process.
1) To express an interest in contributing, follow the link in the top right corner to log in. Click the link to request an account; you will be prompted to:
- • enter your name and email address (preferably institutional, where appropriate);
- • accept the terms and conditions of contributing to the Lost Plays Database;
- • provide a brief bio including relevant academic publications. This information will assist the editors in deciding whether or not an applicant is suitable, and will also become the bio-data publicly displayed on the wiki under the contributor's user name (assuming the applicant is granted contributing privileges).
2) You will then be sent an automatically generated email containing a link which must be clicked to verify your contact information. The editors will use this email address to contact you regarding the status of your application.
Any questions should be directed to the editors at: lost-plays@unimelb.edu.au
