By the time of getting their applications, the list is:<BR>><BR>> Ζαχαρίας Διακονικολάου (Zaharias Diakonikolau) (meta:User:ZaDiak)<BR>> * languages spoken: el, en-4, de-2, grc-2, pnt-1<BR>> * living in: Europe, Greece, Rhodes<BR>> * reason for inclusion: A couple of months ago Language committee<BR>> announced that it is searching for members from the [types of]<BR>> projects which don't have Wikipedia-like dynamics. Zaharias has passed<BR>> as an applicant from Wikiversity (he is admin at Beta Wikiversity and<BR>> bureaucrat at Greek Wikiversity). However, his qualifications go<BR>> further: he is actively working on creation, editing and promoting<BR>> projects in various Greek languages. Knowing that he is young, he will<BR>> be our long term investment, too.<BR>><BR>> Oliver Stegen]] (meta:User:Baba Tabita)<BR>> * languages spoken: de, en-4, sw-3 <small style="color:gray;">nl-1,<BR>> fr-1</small><BR>> * living in: Africa, Kenya, Nairobi (from Europe, Germany)<BR>> * reason for inclusion: Oliver is a linguist who is working for SIL on<BR>> East African languages. We'll have one ultra-relevant expert in<BR>> LangCom thanks to Jon Harald Søby, one of the LangCom members, who met<BR>> Oliver in Nairobi.<BR>><BR>> Santhosh Thottingal]] (meta:User:Santhosh.thottingal)<BR>> * languages spoken: ml, hi-3, en-3, ta-2,<BR>> * living in: Asia, India, Chennai (Madras)<BR>> * reason for inclusion: Santhosh is a free software guru interested in<BR>> languages. He will help us in articulating projects for covering<BR>> language-related needs of Wikimedia projects.<BR>><BR>> I want to add one more point related to Santhosh. He has passed as a<BR>> LangCom member not because he is from India, but because he has<BR>> relevant expertise and right attitude. Although he speaks three Indian<BR>> languages, he has become a member of LangCom because he is a free<BR>> software guru interested in languages. Before Santhosh's application,<BR>> we would have been happy to see anyone with this qualification and<BR>> this attitude, no matter of location of birth or residence.<BR>><BR>> However, Bishakha's question and subsequent conversation helped, as it<BR>> gave impulse to Santhosh to submit the application. And that brings to<BR>> my mind that it would be good to pass the whole world periodically and<BR>> raise the geographical equality issue. And it is not a joke. That's<BR>> obviously giving people courage, or at least the idea, that they have<BR>> the same right to become members of any Wikimedia body, as any<BR>> Westerner has. Sometimes the qualifications won't be relevant for<BR>> particular position, sometimes they will.<BR>><BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> foundation-l mailing list<BR>> <A href="mailto:foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org">foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org</A><BR>> Unsubscribe: <A href="https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l" target=_blank>https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l</A><BR>><BR>><BR></DIV></DIV>
