It varies. For me personally I presented myself straight to the Vertical Director because I had internal access as a volunteer at the time, but that’s pretty irregular. Normally, Fandom Staff look for mature users who are very active in a given vertical & invite them, or hire old freelance writers in the case of Content Team Members. As for why certain Wikis have some & others do not, it’s largely based on popularity, strategic value (e.g. new season coming out in near future), or because the Wiki Manager team made the Wiki ourselves.
