Interests and ambitions
Wilemon23 would like to learn about how to more efficiently catch vandals, and also wants to create new pages. They also want to become an administrator at some point.

Curriculum
Policy and background In this phase of the curriculum, I will teach Wilemon23 the founding policies of Wikipedia, such as the five pillars, and go into depth about What Wikipedia Is and What It Is Not.

WikiMarkup This phase is just a quick brushup on the wiki language by running through the Manual of Style.

What makes an article Here, I will go into detail about the different parts of an article, such as the lead section, etc. to assist Wilemon23 in creating articles.

Deletion In this phase I will show Wilemon23 the different ways an article can be deleted, to prepare him for new page patrolling.

Tools of the trade Based on his interests, I will show Wilemon23 many tools that will make his work here easier and much more efficient, such as tools for vandalism reversion and the like.

Vandalism Reversion This phase is just a quick brush-up on when to revert a user, when to warn them, and what is simply a good-faith edit--and not vandalism.

"Old School" New page Patrol In this phase I will show Wilemon23 the oldest and perhaps the most reliable way to patrol new pages.

Deletion listing In this very brief part of the curriculum, Wilemon23 will learn how and when to list a page for deletion...without any special tools, as it is simply an important piece or knowledge that shouldn't be missed.

The Wikipedia Namespace Here, I will try to get Wilemon23 involved in the background side of the project, by participating in XfDs, dispute resolution, RfAs, and other similar tasks.

Admin stuff Though I am not an administrator, I will do my best to explain the qualifications that are required of them, including the confusing difference between a block and a ban, page protection, deletion, etc, etc.

Test Yes, Wilemon23, there will be a test. But have no fears; it's not that bad.
