Overview
The Tower Historian is a staff role in the Department of Research and Records. It is responsible for documenting the history of the Tower's real world and web activites and maintaining all site-related portions of the TarValon.Net library.
It is not a role subject to rotation.
Chain of Command
The Tower Historian reports directly to the Director of Research and Records.
Duties
- Responsible for maintaining all site-related portions of the TarValon.net library, primarily those involving history of staff positions held on the site.
- Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Histories - making sure the history of the tower is well documented
- Changes -
- Any time structure is changed the new structure will need to be added.
- Personnel - making sure each department is updated every time they have a change, making sure that subgroups, such as online events have a page, recording winner of "best...." on that page.
- Bondings/raisings - keeping up do date
- Community pages - making sure the links are valid and that content isn't inappropriate
- Parties - Documenting official events, getting reports and pictures up - working with Director of E&C/MoR.
- Communicates with Department heads or people assigned by them to make sure all pages relevant to the TarValon.Net pages are adequately maintained.
- Responsible for checking-in with the Department Head once weekly.
Requirements
- Must be a member in good standing.
- Must know wiki formatting or be willing to learn.
- Must be willing to spend a minimum of 2 hours a week at this position.
- Familiarity with the bylaws, chain of command and administrative structure is very helpful.
History
Since May 2010, there have been two Historians at any given time. This is due to the level of workload involved in keeping the History up to date whilst continuing to expand areas in the site's long history. Rather than have one Historian and an Assistant, as was tried in 2005, it was judged that as both were staff roles "assistant" would be an incorrect term.
