Pretty much. The ThinkTank moderation system works by having "subject matter experts" review and approve articles and article revisions as they are posted. Each moderator has a subset of tags in which they are considered an expert and they are allowed to approve articles marked with those tags.
Moderators are mainly asked to give articles quick reads to ensure that they meet the
rules and
formatting standards set forth on the website, and are giving correct information. Articles and revisions require a minimum of two approvals before they go live.*
ThinkTank is looking for people who are experts in their mentoring area(s) and are willing to spend some time checking the website and approving new articles. You can go to the ThinkTank website to get an idea of the kinds of articles that need approving.
*it should be noted that this was the system at the time the website was developed and released in December 2008. I assume it has not changed significantly since then, but I could be wrong
