That's what I thought too. However, as Brad said, I'm sure most people will have at least a Paypal account. Paying editors by the piece (or by word count) would give them an incentive to do more than a couple of weeks' work for you. Enough editors "on call" as it were would help you when things get too much. You could either pay immediately on reception or get the people to invoice you per month (which would further separate the clowns from the serious people, IMO).

As to picking trustworthy people who can do the job properly, I agree with Brad that Code Project membership status would be one way to determine whether someone is generally serious about this site. The writing abilities of article authors can easily be checked, and although forum postings will generally be of a less polished standard, reading a few will tell you whether the person can string two words together properly. Beyond that, of course, a good old resumé will help you find people who have actually done this kind of thing before.

Anyway, I would definitely be up for it! I'm a Gold member, I've written a few well-rated articles, I've done freelance editing before, and I even have a Master's degree in English. What more could you want? Wink | ;)
