I'm Wil Sinclair, Lila Tretikov's significant other.
I've always wanted a good excuse to get involved in the Wikipedia project and the Wikipedia community. Lila's appointment would be about as good as it gets. :)
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and understanding more about how the community and the Foundation tick. Feel free to contact me directly at wllm(at)wllm(dot)com anytime about anything.
Best. ,Wil

Hoi, Your significant other is the executive director of the Wikimedia Foundation. It is a bit more than just Wikipedia..
<grin> as you are "looking forward to getting to know everyone", does this include the "rest" as well </grin> Thanks, GerardM

True. I'll start with Wikipedia and branch out from there. :)
I'm not sure whom you're referring to as the "rest," but everyone means everyone.

Hello from Sweden! Very commendable of you to a) use this excuse to start getting to know the Wikimedia universe and b) introducing yourself here. Good luck! Do you have a user name/account yet?
Best wishes,

Nice. First things first, prevent others from impersonating you on other wikis: it takes a couple clicks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MergeAccount You can then start your journey across "the rest", that is: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_projects And to get even more general: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_movement
By the way, you probably want to revert your last two edits in main namespace yourself, and continue on talk page only. After a brief look to local policies and guidelines you'll acknowledge it's better to start with something easier.

Hi Wil, and welcome to our little universe! As a practical suggestion, this mailing list called "wikipedia-l" is hardly active. Most of the community discussions are on the wikimedia-l mailing list, on language-specific lists such as wikien-l (for the English Wikipedia), and on topic lists such as wikitech-l (software development), translators-l (translation), etc. You can find the complete directory of the mailing lists at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/ . On each of the Wikimedia sites there are also pages for community discussions, with names such as "Village Pump", "Cafe", etc. We like to talk a lot :)
