Introduction

The Apprentice Initiative is basically the main group of editors on the Assassin's Creed Wiki, which consists of Apprentices and Masters.

Apprentices

The Apprentices are those who are eager to learn about the Wiki and are willing to get in touch with the rules and normalities to become better editors. Apprentices have a better chance to once become Istruttori, or even Staff. To become an Apprentice, an interview must be passed; I will explain the best preparation to the interview later in this guide.

Masters

The Masters are Istruttori - thus a part of the Staff and Istruttorium - that take only the best of editors into their teaching. They are known for sociability, editing skills and their usually major improvements to the Wiki. They are the sheer core, and are those who uphold the high standard of the Wiki.

IRC

The IRC is the main meeting point for Masters and Apprentices; most of the assignments are given through the IRC, and it's a noteworthy place to keep up with the news and recent activity on the Wiki. It is also the place where the interview will be conducted, so be sure to come by; I will explain why, again, later in this guide.

Passing the interview

The best part of this guide comes now. The tips. In all honesty I will tell you what it takes to pass the exam and to be a productive part of the community on the Wiki. First, for those who only possess a short attention span, there will be a sum up of the tips, which will later be detailed further.

The Ten Commandments:

1. Have patience. Those who were planning on reading only the sum up, take this as a warning.
2. Try to gather as much information about Assassin's Creed as possible.
3. Know the rules and standards of both the Wiki and IRC.
4. Know how to edit in both WYSIWYG mode and Source mode.
5. Gather 100 edits. This is the minimum of edits needed to begin the interview. It's not many, since you will need every bit of knowledge about the editing itself, to pass.
6. Have a high quality of writing style, spelling and grammar.
7. Be respectful towards to the others.
8. Know the AC Wiki itself, inside and out.
9. Don't be a noob.
10. Bribing the interviewer will also help. Just kidding.
