New subject: Inquiry into Singapore Wikipedia Team by The New Paper

11 Jan 2011

Hi Bjorn,

Thanks so much for your interest! Unfortunately, there isn't really a
local group at the moment. I'm forwarding your e-mail to the
WikiMedia-SG mailing list, which is where the organization of this
event is happening. There might be long-term editors on this mailing
list interested in talking to you directly, or who have a better idea
than me as to where hardcore Wikipedia contributors might be found in
Singapore. If they do, I'm sure they'll get in touch with you
directly.

Otherwise, I'm afraid your best option will be to come down on
Saturday, where you can meet with all of us and get a sense of how
many Wikipedians there are in Singapore and what we do. Hope you can
join us for some cake!

cheers,
Gaurav

Hello Gaurav,

This is Bjorn from The New Paper. I got your email from my polytechnic
course mate, Ding Xiang. I believe he is your colleague.

This is regarding a story we're chasing on a group of hardcore
wikipedia contributors located in Singapore. We are looking to do a
story on this select group of contributors and possibly do a feature
of the members of this group.

Would you be able to grant me an interview with, say, 4 or 5 members
of this group? Would really appreciate your help with this.

Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you soon!

Regards,

Bjorn Teo Wen Cheng
