Hey everyone :)
I'm happy to announce that earlier this week Adrian Lang joined
Wikimedia Germany's software development team. He'll be working
part-time with us. His main focus will be helping out with user
interface tasks around Wikidata.
A bit of background about Adrian: He joined the German Wikipedia in
2007 and became a sysop that year. In 2008, he worked as a sysop on
German Wikipedia and on Commons and as part of the German OTRS team,
before he gradually left the community again. While active, he wrote
various JavaScript tools for facilitating new images patrol, page
deletion and moving images to Commons among other things. Afterward,
he spent two years working on the PHP-based wiki engine DokuWiki as
part of his professional life. For the last one and a half years, he
worked as a freelance software developer focusing on doing JavaScript,
client-side as well as with Node.js.
We're thrilled to have Adrian on board. Please say hi if you see him around.
Cheers
Lydia
