Hi Everyone(Devs),
Just want to share with you my achievements in WMF for the past 6 months i have been here. My stay here is so awesome that even myself is amazed about it, i have done so far the following things in this organisation and i really see it as a motivation to do more..
- Fixed more than(>) 20 bugs for the org in various extensions and in the mediawiki core(https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/owner:D3r1ck01+status:merged,n,z).
- Mentored GCI #2016 that just ended some few weeks ago.
- Authored one extension (Mailgun extension) for WM
- Help in one way or the other to make sure that little problem on IRC are solved by new comers in the organisation and also doing the same thing to other new comers the way other great guys here did to me when i just came in.
I feel so proud of myself and i want to do more and more contributions to the organisation. Please i will like you all to guide me so that i can stay on the right path and make the Foundation(movement) to be a better one. Your comments are highly appreciated. Thanks to all members of the WMF dev team :)

Looks like you are off to a pretty good start! Thanks for contributing to the projects. I'm especially glad to hear that you are helping us scale by answering questions that come up on irc. It's easy to lose track of how a few quick answers or even just acting as a rubber duck [0] for someone who is stuck can really make a difference.
