 * Not enough expericence as an associate editor, apparently did not work on any submission, see user contributions. Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 08:42, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
 * it does not appear that you've been active in open source. Could you elaborate on your contributions to commons, wikipedia, etc? --mikeu talk 01:37, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
 * No answer to the questions were provided after 5 months. I am unconvinced with publishing and open access experience.  OhanaUnited  Talk page  12:45, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
 * for now. However, I appreciate that a large part of the reason for not having gained experience as an assoc. editor in handling an article yet has been lack of opportunity since there hasn't been a recent submission in the relevant fields. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 01:36, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

Closed as decline, but with a note to prioritise as assitant for processing an article through review. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 10:25, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

Associate editor application of Emanuele Natale

 * - We have such a lack of expertise on theoretical computer science that we had to recruit a guest editor in order to deal with the submission on Binary search algorithm. The candidate is certainly very qualified academically, and has significant expericence in Wikipedia and sister projects. Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 18:46, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
 * . No concerns. T Cells (discuss • contribs) 12:55, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
 * - covers a very useful set of research fields and clear open experience - github and wikis share a lot of principles in common. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 02:15, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
 * - happy to support an editor in this area. Chiswick Chap (discuss • contribs) 09:47, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - Another great addition! --Saguaromelee (discuss • contribs) 12:17, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - essential area of expertise, especially considering how algorithms will increasingly affect all life on earth - and scrutiny is more important than ever. I also assume competency in French language which will be an asset in ensuring more French language can be incorporated where appropriate Jacknunn (discuss • contribs) 03:42, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Result: Accepted as associate editor.

Editorial board application of Yulia Sevryugina

 * - Particularly useful experience with teaching using the wiki dashboard, as well as both subject-specific chemistry and academic librarianship knowledge. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 06:39, 28 March 2020 (UTC)
 * - welcome background and practical skills. Chiswick Chap (discuss • contribs) 09:10, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

Editorial board application of Moritz Schubotz

 * Question: Given your open experience and interest in the technical aspects of Mediawiki, do you have ideas on the Wikijournals' workflow and infrastructure? Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 19:33, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I think for publications that use software, we should establish a reproducibility guideline and implement a protocol for reproducibility of the results obtained by the software from open tests datasets inspired by https://www.springer.com/journal/12532. Other than that I was not involved in the technical details of the publication workflow, but overall it seems reasonable. For the details about mathematical formulae on Wiki and in the PDF, I can probably fix most problems;-) --17:31, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
 * - Not only for the expertise in computer science and experience with Mediawiki, but also for someone who could help improve the journal's practices. Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 08:50, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * - Deep technical knowledge would be invaluable to the project, let alone the field-specific compsci knowledge. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 10:23, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * - per the above discussion. Chiswick Chap (discuss • contribs) 09:48, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
 * - Useful experience and background for the journal. --Saguaromelee (discuss • contribs) 12:20, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Another fantastic addition to the team, and I am particularly interested in ensuring the WikiJournals are aligned with FAIR criteria, including STARDIT design Jacknunn (discuss • contribs) 03:43, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Editorial board application of Jong Bhak

 * - this seems a highly suitable candidate. Chiswick Chap (discuss • contribs) 10:43, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * - Ticks all the boxes. Obviously a highly experienced genomicist, but also publishing experience with an open access BMC journal (Genome Biol.) will be very valuable. Coding and wiki experience in multiple languages of additional benefit (I note that the Korean Genomics Center website is also a wiki). T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 11:18, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Questions - What does 'geromics' mean? Why do your articles at Google Scholar appear with the author name 'Jong Park' instead of 'Jong Bhak'? Why not mention your Wikipedia user page and personal website? Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 20:17, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * ==> I used to use Jong Park until I got married my wife (2004) who wanted to use "Bhak", as my Korean name "박" actually sounds like "Bhak". Park is a Korean name given by the government in the past when Koreans first created passports years ago. "Geromics" is a word coined by me (a neologism). Gero + Omics. It means omics study of Gero(aging, gerontology).
 * I have been into omics and have been running Omics.org.
 * My personal home page is JongBhak.com.
 * My wikipedia personal page is: Jong_Bhak. - Jong Bhak

Editorial board application of Fernando Pinheiro Andutta

 * Comment: The experience looks thin, even for associate editor. Wikiletters looks like a prototype that may or may not take off: an aspiration, not an achievement. Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 07:20, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Welcome aboard! Having an editor with expertise in continental shelf oceanography (small scale) would be great! Have you an interest in editing and contributing to articles on Wikipedia regarding various continental shelves large and small? --Marshallsumter (discuss • contribs) 23:19, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I think more information would be useful on this. Could you summarise the aims and achievements so for of wikiletters? Your works as listed by Google Scholar look interesting. Are your teaching activities in the same topics? What languages do you code in? T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 11:30, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
