Well,
If someone (e.g. Tinu) is a English Wikipedian, it'll be a lie to say "I
Edit Wikipedia in Malayalam" :)
So, Wikipedians will be saying "I Edit Wikipedia" or will be explaining
(which will be answering the questions mentioned in
) in the language
they primarily edit, so, if you edit English Wikipedia, say I edit
Wikipedia in English.
Any more confusions? Please ask Noopur!

it would be good to specify 'in English'. Not
everyone might know for

Just quipping in, if you say it in English it can
mean you edit in
English.
That can be one way of doing it. :)
