Yes you do. Once you're ready email or message Myrab51, who is the Managing Editor and she will get you set up.
To stay active as a Copy Assistant in the WikiReviewers, you will need to pick up assignments from the group coordinator. This is Myrab51. When you complete your assignment, you will need to message her to let her know and to request another one.
To become a Copy Assistant you should contact the WikiReviewers coordinator. See the related links below.
The Copy Assistants are people from the WikiReviewers Program. The Copy Assistants are entry level WikiReviewers. They are assigned spelling and grammar replacement tasks, helping to improve the overall quality and readability of the site. They are given a badge to show that they posses this rank.
A Copy Assistant, in the WikiReviewers program, is a user on the site that would like to brush up on their spelling and grammar skills. They do smaller tasks, such as spelling replacement. Although they are smaller tasks, they are still a big help to the site. It is not required that you take the test to get into the Copy Assistants, but the project types are more limited.
Most of the subgroups in the WikiReviewers, including the Copy Editors, require a test to join. They are the members that have proven that they have exceptional writing and grammar skills. They are given assignments that require skilled writing abilities. This can be anything from the cleanup of answers with poor spelling to balancing out one-sided answers. Copy Assistants are the only group in the WikiReviewers that do not require a test to join. It could be that the person did not pass the test, were not confident in trying it, didn't want to take it, or they just wanted to brush up on the spelling or grammar skills. There could be any number of reasons. The Copy Assistants are given less involved assignments. They usually involve tasks such as fixing the spelling of an assigned word in questions across the site. Even thought the assignments are less involved, they still share the goal of increasing quality on the site. If they choose to test later, they can move into one of the other groups and take on bigger assignments.
A copy editor is a person who reviews style, spelling, formatting, grammar, and overall quality of a document. On WikiAnswers, there is a group of Copy Editors within the WikiReviewers. See the related question below for more on the WikiReviewers.
You must pass the quiz to get into a main WikiReviewers division. However, if you do not pass, you are not just turned away. There is a sub group called the Copy Assistants, which does not require a test. The Copy Assistants take on different types of projects. They still do a lot to contribute and improve the quality of the site. If a Copy Assistant has taken on projects for a few months, and feels they are ready, they qualify to retake the test.
