Hello Fellow Wikimedians,
I am pleased to announce that New England Wikimedians’ website has officially launched,
located here:
http://ne-wikimedians.org/. I would encourage everyone to create an account
if you plan on editing, as accounts are required for editing (to prevent spam). Also,
since we are hosted on Wikimedia DC’s website servers, you will be unable to use your
account details from any accounts that you run on Foundation wiki’s, and you will need to
create a new account, unless you already have one on the WikiConference USA site or their
own wiki. Everyone is welcome to modify what is already there and use it for our outreach
work.
Also, I forgot to mention this yesterday, but if anyone is interested in helping out in a
more official capacity this year, please let me or Maia know, as we are happy to have any
help, no matter what your skill level.
Finally, if anyone has any suggestions or questions, please feel free to e-mail me,
regarding both the site and helping out in the coming year. I will also send an e-mail to
other mailing lists in the next few hours to announce this site (so my apologies ahead of
time for double-posting), but I figured that I would announce it to the user group first
before we made an official announcement to the global community.
Kevin Rutherford
