Is the idea of mentors/helpers viable and are you willing to support it ?

Jess, it might be useful for you to tell Woodrow what kind of support you are looking for.
General advice on Islamic living?
Specific Islamic teachings?
Emotional support with being a revert in a non-Muslim environment?
etc

That might help Woodrow in partnering you up with the best suited mentor.

Can i set up a system for managing this or only mods allowed to do so ?

What type of system do you have in mind? Of course we want you to use your system, but please keep us informed as to what you are doing. Since it is on the forum we do want to be certain no forum rules are violated.
 
what all i wanted to do was to create a page where people can enter their names requesting for a mentor which you moderators or me can visit and allot them from another list of people willing to volunteer.

I basically plan to use google docs .. :P

Are you thinking like a stickey thread or a seperate section?

A stickey thread can be feasible. A separate section may pose some problems.
 
OK get ready here is the entire plan ..

Basically it would require a sticky thread asking for volunters as well as a place for requesting mentors.

That thread would be accesible only to registered IB members.There we would point them to a web-fill-up form (depending of course if they are mentor or a volunteer).

These are the pages...

Now once they fill up , Moderators will be checking the spreadsheet containing the fill-in data from the forms..LEts take the example for volunteer spreadsheet which would give the details from the form (grey) and we can mention whom we alloted that person to ensure other mods also know.this spreadsheet can be edited by multiple mods.(which of course is a feature of google docs.

I hope everything is simple and doesn't violate any rules :P ?

As the Qur'an says that no one should accomodate over his abilities.So, I won't. But I do think that your idea is really good because we need to give special attention to the new comers.

Indeed we should also ensure that people being alloted are knowledgable bros/sis

Awesome Idea! I can help people and give support. It is important that reverts should know that we are helping them as a part of family, Insha'Allah! :statisfie
 
Any mods or Woodrow .. can you help with this :S ?

this is final bump :(

Count me in Zakirs.I think we need to design a page of rules to ensure that when we do not have an answer etc, we know when to look for one and how.
Great idea brother, dont be disheartened by poor response, wuthering heights was knocked back 50 times b4 going into publication. Keep trying its a great idea:D
