Edits mean experience, but mods don't moderate articles, they moderate <i>chat</i>. If they demonstrate proper behavior for a while in chat (2 months seems really short. I'm thinking at least 9 months, but obviously some exceptions can be made.), I think it should be OK.

<p>9 months is kind of a long time, relatively speaking. I've had this account for a shorter time than that.

<p>Hmmm. Extending the time and getting rid of the edits. I like that. maybe something like 4 or 6 months though and 2 or 3 months without a ban.

<p>I'd say maybe 4-5 months

Alternative: no edit requirement. It's unnecessary for a chat moderator RFR and makes it more complicated for capable candidates to apply. And there's certainly no justification for any number of mainspace edits to be implemented as a requirement to become CM.</div> <p>^this

<p>My vote stays the same as in the last one. (100 edits, 50 mainspace)

I haven't changed my mind from before.

<p>I don't mind having an edit requirement, as long as the edits are not mainspace.

(Edited by Dr. Satl, M.D.)
<p>I feel that an edit requirement is necessary- many community votes/discussions involve chat, meaning they're important to chat and a CM should be participating in these. Also, having 75 edits means you are participating in/getting to know the community outside of chat, or are contributing to the wiki. Though CM's rights are only in chat, I feel they should still have a connection with the community in general.

<p>I would suggest removing the edit requirement, but increasing the time, perhaps to three or four months.
