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-wikip...
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!
