Project Facilitator

From DPCanadaWiki

To be created/developped and updated A Project Facilitator (PF) is an administrative position at DPC, below that of Site Administrator (SA). The Project Facilitators' primary function is to help Project Managers, but only when the PMs need it. A PF can do anything a PM can do, with the difference that the PF can do it for all projects.

Visit DPC Administrators to see a list of current Project Facilitators.

PF's primary function is to help Project Managers, but only when PMs need it. A PF can do anything a PM can do, with the difference that the PF can do it for ALL projects.

So, a PF can look at an image or proofed page to answer a specific question in a project thread. A PF can move a project into Unavailable if there are serious problems (such as text/image mismatch) so that the PM can fix it later. A PF can edit project comments to add clarifying detail if the need for it becomes apparent in the discussion thread.

PF's have been instructed to be VERY careful about doing things to projects without prior permission from the PM.

What PF's can't do: move projects from one PM to another; change a project state in a manner the system doesn't expect; or grant PM, PP, or PPV status. For these things you will need to contact a site administrator.

There are currently 4 PFs, although if this function proves useful I expect that there will be more as the site grows.
