Hello everyone,

Apologies for the cross-posting but thought this might be of interest to anyone attending Wikimania. Please do have a look.

Thanks,

Stevie

Hi all, I wanted to point you to a new profile on the Wikimedia Foundation blog, this time with Storyteller Victor Grigas. http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/06/27/the-value-of-telling-wikimedia-stories/

I hope you'll like the background info on Victor, but more importantly I hope you will share with your networks that Victor is trying to interview a bunch of Wikimedians at Wikimania in a couple weeks as part of the Storyteller documentation. Some of the interviews eventually go on to the fundraising banners, but many more stories prove to be important records of the people who make Wikipedia and sister projects possible. We've done several profiles on the WMF blog, for instance, and we plan to continue featuring more.

You can reach out to Victor through his user page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Victorgrigas

Thanks! Matthew
