I am pleased to announce Marielle Volz joining the Wikimedia Foundation as a Software Engineer for the Editing team. Marielle will be working remotely from London, UK. She made her first website[1] in 1997 with Adobe PageMill 2.0[2], which according to one review at the time, "has terrific tables by today's standards for an HTML editor, although they're not bad by any standard."[3]. When her house finally got the internet in 1999, she first discovered the "view source" button. It wasn't until 5 years later in 2004 that she registered her first Wikipedia account, wherein she developed a lovely addiction to that damnable website. During a brief period of insanity (i.e. all of her undergraduate and graduate education) she considered becoming a Scientist, before realizing it's actually more fun to sit inside on a computer all day editing Wikipedia articles about Science rather than Doing Science and actually going outside, which, with the advent of vitamin D supplementation, is wholly unnecessary, and perhaps one could even say, *inadvisable*. Only now, having recently become a member of the 10 year club, has finally joined two of her passions: "making internet stuff" and "Wikipedia internet stuff" to work on VisualEditor, an HTML editor. To that end of continuing to edit articles about Science, and also making internet stuff, she did the FOSS Outreach Program for Women program this Summer[4], and started developing a node.js service Citoid[5] to make it easy to insert citations using a URL/DOI/Title in VE/Wikitext. She'll be continuing to do that, and maybe other things, but mostly that, as a contractor starting last month. Please join me in welcoming Marielle to the Wikimedia Foundation. --tomasz [1] http://web.archive.org/web/20030126114223/http://www.tufts.edu/as/engdept/m… [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_PageMill [3] http://web.archive.org/web/20080620021417/http://www.soc.org.uk/bulletin/pa… [4] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Mvolz/OPW_proposal_round_8 [5] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid
