How do I become an editor?

If you have read all of the information in the Editors' Guide and are interested in becoming an editor, you can apply by doing the following:

  1. Read the Editors' Guide completely.
  2. Begin testing sandbox extensions and writing reviews of them. Do not skip this step! We will look over the reviews you have done in the sandbox.
  3. When you feel you have enough experience with how the site works, send an email to amo-editors at mozilla.org with the subject "AMO Editor Application" and the below information.
  4. Please be patient for a response. We will request that at least 2 existing editors or admins look over your reviews and vouch for you.

The email should contain:

  • Your name
  • Your e-mail address (same as your AMO account)
  • Which products you use (i.e. Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, Sunbird, etc.)
  • Which operating systems you can test on
  • Any experience you have testing or creating extensions
  • Any other relevant information

You may wish to join us in #addons on irc.mozilla.org to start getting a feeling for how things work.
