Howdy, I am SkiDooGuy, I've been a Canadian and United States Local Champ since May of 2015 and  am an Country Manager for Canada, the United States, and Palau. I started editing October 2013 and assisted with the roll out of several major initiatives in the United States such as the switch to using functional classification for our road infrastructure. As a Champ I have from the role of deep technical understanding to one of large scale community management, improvement, and sustainability. I am currently working at looking at how the community interacts with new editors (those at the 1st or 2nd log into the editor) as well as how the roles of AM and CM are presented to the editing community at large. This project will attempt to make the roles appear more attainable to those editors who currently feel as though there is a large expectation of time commitment and community involvement to be an AM. In the current clime of decreased new editor encounters and retention it is very important to ensure our standards reflect not only the high quality they currently do, but also an inclusiveness that ensures new/low ranking editors feel they can have a place in the community while maintaining their real world lives.
