So, the main role of a CA is to help contributors and supervisors do their stuff: asking, answering and editing questions.
Here are just a few activities that CAs perform daily:
- Temporarily watch uncovered topics.
- Welcome new contributors, and find valuable new users.
- Encourage active contributors.
- Stop vandalism in its tracks.
- Project assignments, such as cleaning up answers to more popular Q&As, including adding headers and bullet points.
- Keep an eye on alternate questions/merges.
- Clean up poorly worded questions.
- Watch new users and profiles.
- Salvage trashed questions that can be re-worded into legitimate questions.
- Feature questions.
- Split off new questions from alternates.
- Recruit new supervisors.
- Permanently delete trashed questions.
- Come up with new topic ideas.
