In order to get the widest possible fan contribution, we'd like to make editing fanlore as non-threatening as possible, and get our help resources up to snuff. To that end, we're attempting to get some screencasts made. Now, I can record a screencast, but when it comes to editing out all the pauses and jittering, and speeding up the typey-bits to make it not annoying to watch, I admit, I'm not so hot.

However, it occurs to me that this should be a fairly trivial exercise for some of the amazing vidders I know we have in the fan community.

We would like screencasts on, at minimum the two following subjects:

1) Getting a fanlore account! This is the first hurdle for new editors. A screencast should walk the viewer through getting an account, and let them know how to set up their OpenID, should they wish to add that.

2) Editing a new article! Want to start a new article? How do you do that? How do you make a wiki link, and add headings?

Additionally, if screencasts include a voice component, subtitles would be awesome, and make them more accessible.

If you'd like to make a screencast, or help with one, or suggest other topics that could be usefully screencast, please let me know!
