E. Use the Cannot Work (Reject) button to ask questions and temporarily remove the article from your queue if you aren't able to continue to work on it without additional help.Explanation
The reviewing editor will be notified of any comment you leave on the Comments tab within the article. The reviewing editor will also replace your guidance editor as the person who'll be notified if you use the Send for Help method from the Comments tab.
The Cannot Work (Reject) method is your best option if you need to temporarily remove the article from your queue to get more work; your question will go to both the reviewing editor and your senior editor, and the article can be returned to you after your questions are answered. Do not click the I'm Done button until you have either made all of the requested changes or worked with the editor in CMS to determine another resolution for the article.

- C.
The day after the invoice period closes, by 9 a.m. Pacific time
Correct Answer
B. The day the invoice period closes, by 11:59 p.m. Pacific timeExplanation
Invoice periods begin at midnight on the 1st and 16th day of each month. The first invoice period ends at 11:59 p.m. on the 15th. The second invoice period ends at 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the month. Any time added to Work Tracker after an invoice period is closed will be included in the following invoice period.Rate this question:

What happens if you don't submit your invoice by 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the pay period (the 15th or the last day of the month)?
- A.
You'll be able to add more time to the invoice later. Your pay will be processed when you submit the invoice.
- B.
Your pay will not be processed this pay period. All the intervals from this time period will be added to the next pay period's invoice.
- C.
Your invoice, as it stands at 11:59 p.m., will be automatically submitted to the pay department. You will receive your pay for the listed intervals by the 7th or 21st. If you later add other intervals for that same pay period, they will be counted toward your next pay period's invoice.
Correct Answer
C. Your invoice, as it stands at 11:59 p.m., will be automatically submitted to the pay department. You will receive your pay for the listed intervals by the 7th or 21st. If you later add other intervals for that same pay period, they will be counted toward your next pay period's invoice.Explanation
All invoices must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the pay period. You can submit your invoice manually using the Submit Invoice button on the Work Tracker tab. However, if you don't, it will be automatically submitted for you. If your work spans the last day of the pay period into the first day of the following pay period, the time you spent up until 11:59 will be submitted, though you'll be able to allocate your time when you've finished your entire work interval, even if it's after 11:59 p.m.Rate this question:

Imagine that Louise and Marjorie are Remilon freelance writers using the Work Tracker system. Read the following description of their work styles and consider whether each is the Work Tracker appropriately.
- Louise works in defined segments. She does all the research for Article A and then writes Article A. She then does all the research for article B. Then she does all the writing for Article B.
- As she works, Marjorie goes back and forth between research and writing. She does the research for her article's first section and writes it. Then she does the research for her article's second section and writes it.
- A.
Louise is working appropriately. Marjorie's style is not appropriate.
- B.
Marjorie is working appropriately. Louise's style is not appropriate.
- C.
Both Marjorie and Louise are working appropriately. As long as they keep track of the length of time spent on research vs. writing, either workflow style is OK.
Correct Answer
C. Both Marjorie and Louise are working appropriately. As long as they keep track of the length of time spent on research vs. writing, either workflow style is OK.Explanation
You work however you like, whether it's on one article at a time, separating research and writing tasks or jumping between articles throughout the day. We ask only that you keep track of how much time you're spending on each article, and how much of that time is spent on research, as well as time you spend on training and other tasks within a 10-minute window of each.Rate this question:
- 26.
Imagine that Jed, Elmer and Bruno are Remilon freelance writers using the Work Tracker system. Read the following description of their work styles and consider whether each is using the Work Tracker system appropriately.
- As Jed works, he switches from article to article and from writing to research within each article. He doesn't pay attention to the clock. When Jed goes to Work Tracker, he knows that he worked on 3 articles, so he allocates the time exactly evenly between the articles. He isn't sure how much he spent researching, so he divides each article's time 50/50 between writing and research.
- As Elmer works, he keeps an eye on the clock from time to time and develops a general idea of approximately how much time he spent on each article. When he clocks out, he makes his best guess about dividing the time between the three articles he worked on and between writing and research for each article. He's confident that his answers are accurate to within about 10 minutes.
- As Bruno switches from article to article and between writing and research, he uses a stopwatch and a notepad to keep track of how much time he spends on each task. When he clocks out, he has 207 minutes to allocate. He knows that he spent exactly 58 minutes on Article D (exactly 35% research), exactly 1 hour and 13 minutes on Article E (exactly 65% research) and exactly 1 hour and 8 minutes on Article F (exactly 55% research). This leaves 8 minutes as non-billable minutes, which he knows is precisely how long he took to eat a blueberry muffin as a break.
- A.
Jed
- B.
Bruno
- C.
Elmer
- D.
Both Elmer and Bruno are correct, as long as the freelance writer is accurate to within 10 minutes and the time spent keeping track doesn't exceed 5 minutes per interval.
- E.
Jed, Elmer and Bruno are all correct.
Correct Answer
D. Both Elmer and Bruno are correct, as long as the freelance writer is accurate to within 10 minutes and the time spent keeping track doesn't exceed 5 minutes per interval.Explanation
If you find it's more useful to jot down the actual times you spend starting and stopping a task or to use a time tracking solution (several types of these are available online), that's fine. The time you spend using these systems shouldn't exceed 5 minutes of a work interval, though. However, if you're able to track the time you spend on each task in your head, that's great too. As long as you're within 10 minutes of your actual start and stop times, it's fine. However, simply dividing a work interval evenly between the articles you wrote and other tasks you performed doesn't give an accurate depiction of how you're actually spending your time.Rate this question:

What will happen if you request a Priority Second Review?
- A.
After my FAR has been reviewed by my guidance editor, it will be sent to another content editor for a second review.
- B.
After my FAR has been reviewed by my guidance editor, it will be sent to my senior editor for a second review.
- C.
The article I write after my FAR will be sent to my guidance editor for a priority review rather than going into the general edit pool.
- D.
The article I write after my FAR will be sent to another content editor for a priority review rather than going into the general edit pool.
Correct Answer
D. The article I write after my FAR will be sent to another content editor for a priority review rather than going into the general edit pool.Explanation
Articles you write after your FAR is approved are submitted to the general editing pool. Content editors can check out articles to edit the same way you check out titles, so your articles might not be reviewed for several days or more. To ensure that you get more timely feedback, you can request that the article immediately following your FAR be reviewed promptly by a content editor. To learn how this process works and how you can make a request, read through the Priority Second Review page in Confluence.Rate this question:

When are payments received by Remilon to your PayPal account?
- A.
No later than the 1st and 15th of every month.
- B.
No later than the 7th and 21st of every month.
- C.
No later than the 10th and 25th of every month.
- D.
Both invoices are paid on the last day of each month.
- E.
Both invoices are paid by the 15th of the following month.
Correct Answer
B. No later than the 7th and 21st of every month.Explanation
Invoices are paid no later than the 21st of the month for the first work period and the 7th of the following month for the second work period. In some cases, invoices might be processed earlier, such as when these dates fall on weekends or holidays. However, payments will never be processed later than these dates.
If you have not received a PayPal payment by Remilon, or been notified by Remilon of a problem, by the 8th or 22nd of the month, please send an email to [email protected].Rate this question:

When should you allocate time to the Minor Edits category in the Work Tracker?
- A.
When you only make small changes to articles you haven't submitted for review yet.
- B.
When you only make small changes to articles you've completed and submitted for review, but they haven't yet been checked out by an editor.
- C.
When a senior editor or publishing community coordinator assigns you specific work in the Minor Edits work pool.
- D.
Small changes you make to anything other than an article in either the Confluence or CMS system.
Correct Answer
C. When a senior editor or publishing community coordinator assigns you specific work in the Minor Edits work pool.Explanation
The Minor Edits category is only used to track time against specific work that has been assigned to you by a senior editor or a publishing community coordinator. You probably won't have Minor Edits work assigned to you very often, if at all. Most of your time should be tracked under the Research/Writing tab in Work Tracker.Rate this question:
