[edit]- How long have you been on Wikipedia, and what areas are you active in?
- I have been on for a couple months and am most active within the musical and philosophical avenues. However, whatever I find myself studying irl is what I usually edit within Wiki.
- What languages are you comfortable communicating in? Are you active on any non-English Wikipedias or other Wikimedia projects?
- I am working proficient in Russian and am a basic communicator in Italian and German.
- Why do you want to volunteer with The Wikipedia Library? What role would you like to play?
- I would love to be involved in the Research or archival sections, as I have past and current experience in those areas. I am also incredibly flexible and would be willing to conjoin in any areas in which need a further aid to complete. I would like to participate with Wiki Library, as I have amassed a tremendous amount of knowledge about an eclectic array of information pertinent to both my actual areas of study, for which I would not have been exposed had it not been for Wiki. I would like to contribute back to the community and begin to integrate myself into the fabric of Wiki in a more tangible manner.
