If you look down the right-hand side of the screen - There should be a list of the supervisors for the category. Just below that - there should be a blue link 'Become a Supervisor'. Click it - and follow the instructions.

How do you decide if you should become a Category Supervisor or a Floating Supervisor on WikiAnswers?
Well, it is mainly up to you, Don't forget, a Category Supervisor looks after certain categories, whereas a floating Supervisor maintains every category, just 'Floating'. Hence the name. So it depends whether you prefer just one category or not.

If a floating supervisor wishes to become a category supervisor, they can apply in the same way that a non-supervisor would, by sending an email to the appropriate email address.

What position is better being a Category Supervisor or Floating Supervisor?
Either is good. If you are very knowlegable in certain caegories, then you may consider being a category supervisor. If you knowledge falls into a bunch of categories or you don't want to be tied down to watching certain categories, you may want to become a floating supervisor. Note that category supervisors are not restricted to just their own categories - they can still work in whatever category interests them.
Can Floating Supervisors focus mainly on one category?
Yes, they can. Although in such a case, it's recommended that you consult with the current supervisor to see what he/she needs help with. Also, if the category is unsupervised, we hope that they'll become that category's supervisor.
How do you become something other than a contributor?
You can e-mail WikiAnswers @ Answers.com (no spaces) asking to be either a category supervisor or floating supervisor. To be a category supervisor you should be knowledgeable about the category.

Perhaps Ganderton (Gregg), the guy who made you a Supervisor. And the people who recommended for you to become one.
