Define and implement new tools and interfaces for moderators - Work with existing moderators and IT to define and implement new tools and interfaces to support the work of moderators. See "Improve tools and interfaces to support moderators" in Technical section above. Work-in-progress, 2014-09. Completed several improvements, further work in progress

arXiv moderator coverage and evaluation - Work with subject committees to attain a full complement of moderators. Develop and implement metrics for evaluating moderator performance, to share with subject committee chairs.As of 2014-09, physics has added 12  Over 12 new moderators added in the last year; only 3 unfilled positions (including General Physics). Work to do still on defining countable physics during 2014; 3 empty physics mod positions as of Dec 2014. Work not completed: defining and developing countable metrics for moderator performance.

General Physics moderation - Work with Physics Advisory Committee to implement an effective moderation process for the General Physics category. WorkGen-in-progress, 2014-09.ph moderator in place as of November 2014

Scientific Director - Work with various stakeholders to define the role of the Scientific Director with respect to daily moderation processes and workflows. Work - in - progress, 2014-09.

Evaluate administrative processes - Work with Scientific Director to evaluate arXiv administration processes and staffing, especially in light of evolving moderation tools. Work - in - progress, 2014-09.

arXiv category definitions - Work with Physics Advisory Committee to develop public subject category descriptions for existing physics categories. Only a small number of physics categories currently have descriptions. Defining the scope and boundaries of the categories will help users, moderators, and administrators. We have descriptions of most categories now, 2014-09. This needs to go to the Unedited descriptions have been gathered for most categories; yet to do: work with the Physics Advisory Committee for editing and approval.
