BeWelcome FAQs - Check-up and Update

It is important to regularly check and update our FAQs for Bewelcome users. Please use this site to

• indicate that you have checked a particular section of the FAQs (by going to edit and inserting 4 ~ , which will display your username and the date)
• mark an outdated FAQ by inserting OUTDATED
• mark wrong links by inserting WRONG LINK and preferably try to find out the correct link and also insert it
• suggest better wording by inserting SUGGESTED WORDING and the text you suggest
• Suggest new FAQs by inserting NEW

Unfortunately at the moment I'm not sure who can work on the FAQs online - apart from myself (Claudiaab), so I would like to keep all the suggestions for alteration here, I will then put them online, once you notify me that you are done with a particular section.

I'll try something as soon as possible --Bikepunk 19:33, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

folowing, my proposal for a new, updated section :

1: How can I help BeWelcome?

Being an active member is the first way to keep BeWelcome running. Keep it in mind.

Then, to help further, you have actually two possibilities :

• Get involved as a Volunteer (link to http://www.bewelcome.org/about/getactive)
• Donate (with a link to http://www.bewelcome.org/donate) to bear the expenses of the project

2: How is BeWelcome organised?

(a diagram would be more than welcome with : BoD, GA, Volunteers, members...)

BeWelcome is a project completely run by volunteers.
The legal structure behind BeWelcome is BeVolunteer(link to http://www.bevolunteer.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page), a non-profit organisation.
