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. ,Wil On Sun, May 4, 2014 at 11:07 PM, Gerard Meijssen <gerard.meijssen(a)gmail.com> wrote:

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 On 5 May 2014 01:21, Wil Sinclair <wllm(a)wllm.com> wrote:

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?

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. Nemo
