User:Accedie - Wikiwand

Greetings and salutations!

I'm Maryana. I'm a literature and languages person by trade, but I like dabbling in anything that strikes my fancy. There's so much still to be done here!

Disclaimer: I work for the Wikimedia Foundation (my staff account is here), but this is my personal account. Edits, statements, or other contributions made from this account are my own, and may not reflect the views of the Foundation.

What I do

I dip in and out of being an active content contributor onwiki, but when I do fall down the wiki-hole, I most enjoy creating articles on niche topics and copyediting (to help out non-native English speakers, and to assist brave souls trying to get an article to FA – bonus points if said article is also on a niche topic!).

Otherwise, you'll find me spiffying up random articles and occasionally hosting an editathon to introduce more newbies to the joys of Wikipedia.

Stuff I've done (that you can help improve!)

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar

Thanks much for your help with creating a new page for my student.

I am relatively new to the wiki experiment and using the wiki as part of my class assignments.

Your helpfulness has motivated me to incorporate the wiki more seriously in my college classes and become more familiar with the editing process.
