Hi Ambassadors,
In our continued efforts to showcase the impact your work having on
Wikipedia, I wanted to draw your attention to a blog post we put out
today:
http://blog.wikimedia.org/2011/05/11/berkeley-undergrad-gets-hooked-on-wiki…
The blog post features Kevin Gorman, an undergrad at UC Berkeley who's
taking the "Politics of Piracy" class. Kevin was really drawn to
Wikipedia once he created his user account for class, and he spends
his free time editing the content of articles about mushrooms and
patrolling newly created pages to ensure they meet Wikipedia's
policies. A big thank you goes out to all the Ambassadors who've
worked with Kevin, especially the UC Berkeley campus crew!
If you've worked with other students who have ventured into editing
non-class topics, please let me know who they are (off-list) so I can
continue showcasing your awesome Ambassadorial work!
LiAnna
