My home wiki is the English Wikipedia, which I have been editing since March 2005 under the username "[[w:User:the wub|the wub]]". I often dabble in other projects too.


In 2011 I joined the Wikimedia Foundation as a Production Coordinator for the annual fundraiser. In April 2012 I became a Community Fellow for 6 months, working on a project to improve Wikipedia's help documentation. Now in October 2012 I have returned to fundraising as a consultant.
'''Thanks for being here!''' This wiki does not exactly follow the same rules as the other Wikimedia projects, since it is ''not open to all'' for editing, and in case of disagreement, the organ of decision will be the Board. A rule of thumb however is that if we gave you access, that means ''we trust you''. So please, do not be shy in editing this site. There is ample work for everyone :-)
* Please create [[Special:Mypage|your userpage]] with a short biography and other introductory information about yourself and the work you do. You may want to use the {{tl|user info}} template. Feel free to look at [[Special:ListUsers|other user pages]] for examples.
* All organizational pages may be found in the [[:Category:Foundation wiki|special category]].
* For those willing to help with translation, please see [[m:Translation requests]], and in particular the Foundation subpage [[m:Translation requests/WMF|/WMF]].
* Please watch for feedback on [[m:Foundation wiki feedback|Meta-Wiki]] and start discussions there.

I currently live in Cambridge, England. When not working on Wikimedia-related stuff (or attending meetups!) I enjoy travelling, origami, and playing guitar badly.

I will be helping with the implementation and testing of banners and donation pages for the fundraiser. I will also be assisting Wikimedia Chapters with their fundraising efforts, and liasing with other community members.

Thank you so much for implementing the redesigned version of [[Thank You/en]]. :-) I think it looks so much better, and I know that the fundraising team is crazy busy right now, so I really appreciate that this was able to get implemented so quickly. --[[User:MZMcBride|MZMcBride]] 06:04, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
:No, thank you! It really does look much better. I'll have a go at making a rotator for the stories when I get some time. [[User:Pcoombe|Pcoombe]] 18:18, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

== [[Template:Languages]] ==

Hi. The above-linked template doesn't currently work for country-language (or is it language-country?) codes, that I can see. Look at [[Problems donating/es-es]], for example. This can probably be fixed, just wanted to let you know that not all of the translations are being shown to readers for pages that use that schema, in the meantime.

== Proposed deletions ==

Hi. I'm working on cleaning up this wiki a bit. I've proposed the following pages for deletion. I'm notifying you as you're listed in the page history. Without objection, the pages listed below will be deleted in about a month. Thanks for all of your work here. --[[User:MZMcBride|MZMcBride]] ([[User talk:MZMcBride|talk]]) 21:44, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

About me

My home wiki is the English Wikipedia, which I have been editing since March 2005 under the username "the wub". I often dabble in other projects too.

In 2011 I joined the Wikimedia Foundation as a Production Coordinator for the annual fundraiser. In April 2012 I became a Community Fellow for 6 months, working on a project to improve Wikipedia's help documentation. Now in October 2012 I have returned to fundraising as a consultant.

I currently live in Cambridge, England. When not working on Wikimedia-related stuff (or attending meetups!) I enjoy travelling, origami, and playing guitar badly.

My work

I will be helping with the implementation and testing of banners and donation pages for the fundraiser. I will also be assisting Wikimedia Chapters with their fundraising efforts, and liasing with other community members.
