Hello,
With the recent discussion about the es.wp and pt.wp decisions to turn off local uploads and use Commons only, I wonder if a page like this might be useful for the future?

Comments & additions welcome as usual, especially from the Spanish Wikipedia community, who might be able to comment on what works and what doesn't, and other necessary steps.
BTW I am really happy to see the enthusiastic response from the discussions, we now have four new native Spanish speaking admin candidates, and one native Portugese speaking (not to mention two English, as well :)). They all seem like excellent candidates who are very keen to help. I certainly hope that at least a few will stick around after the initial euphoria of a new sysop bit wears off. :)
regards, Brianna user:pfctdayelise

I'm now at home for my on-call week and will try to get some shitwork done as well, running for admin if I think I can keep up the shitwork :-)

Dealing with the shitwork really is not hard. However, I find it can get a little bit more time consuming than doing it on en.wiki since we are dealing with users using different languages, and thus I have to keep something like Google Translate or AltaVista Babel Fish handy. But I got a hang of it... which means I should run for admin soon...
