Two questions: will I be notified if my application was rejected, and also, how long does it usually take from the submission of the speech to when it its accepted/rejected.

If you have a good speech that isn't just nonsense, you have a very high chance of becoming curator. There are not any advanced prerequisites, so you should be fine. If you, however, see that people who applied later than you have become curator, then your application probably has already been read.

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

It'd be cool to be curator someday!

I like music videos and simple yet fun games, I actually have a wide variety of likes! But above all, I prefer animations. Really, I only want to be curator so I can help scratchers get popular. It always feels wonderful when I know I've helped somebody.

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

Here is where you must post your speech.

And now there are hundreds of people wanting to be curator. If you really want to do it, you should follow the Scratch Teams directions and give some examples of what you might curate.

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

I was just thinking, do they e-mail you as well as commenting to you when they want you as a curator?  hmm

Ah!!! This is really late, hopefully you've gotten an answer but if you haven't:
They at first tell you through the scratch website, and to find out more information, they tell you through email. That's what happened for me.

and...
Bump!

Some curators request for projects to be submitted. Try submitting prohects when they ask and maybe they'll curate it!

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

Wow. I'm glad it's okay to rePost  wink

And if you still reading this, there's a place where you write; What should I curate? (and not curate)

I'm really interested about the "and not to curate" which you didn't write.

I'm really interested about the "and not to curate" which you didn't write.

Really, it should be your own choice, and because these projects are going on the front page, slightly violent projects (guns, slight blood) shouldn't be curated.
Also, because the reward is comparable to being featured, nothing too popular or made by someone too popular should be curated. You can curate any type of project, however, as long as you feel it is worthy.

Did I forget to include that in my post? Silly me. I always forget things.

Edit: No wait, I included that. It's at the bottom of the list where it says "NOT".

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

Yes, I know this is a bit late, but whatever:
This is a great guide to how to become a curator! liked how you thoroughly explained the topic. Could you, by any chance, check this out, my curator speech , because I'm really unsure about it. I think I did a good job.

when gf clicked
forever
if <(am I curator) = [yes]>
 forever
 be happy

end

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

Okay, I read over your speech. I think the "speech"y part is fine, but you may want to add onto your examples.

Rather than just saying which projects are good, perhaps say why you liked them and why you might curate them.

Re: Can I become the curator? and other curator questions.

Is there a application or just a speech? If so is it just a simple little thing or is it more of a presidential speech. Persuasive? Why you want to be it? What kind of speech? Just have a lot of ??????'s. Also do i have enough projects/experience. :S

It's just a speech. It doesn't have to be all deep and moving, but it should be informative.

It'd be nice if you had more experience than others applying to make it easier to get the role.

Hey, joshuaho, if the question was already answered before, especially a long time ago, you shouldn't be answering it. If you would like to bump this topic, bump it, but it seems you're only necroposting at this point.
