  • Sure; merely minor changes. Periods are missing at the ends of sentences under "Legacy gift" and "Matching gifts". Under "Amazon Payments", there is a needlessly difficult sentence which can be condensed by replacing "you may experience extra charges associated with converting a charge into another currency" with "you may encounter currency exchange fees". These are the sort of changes I would sparingly make with a Foundation account. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 21:48, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • E-mail address: abutorsam007(_AT_)gmail.com
  • Reason why I need an account: Wikimedia Foundation always inspires me, I am active editor on w:en:User:!dea4u. I wish to be part of it because i can feel it in my blood, the transparency it offers, it empowers me in contributing for knowledge which is made available for whole world free of cost. I believe in making my best effort for achieving the goal of Wikimedia Foundation. Thanks. -- !dea4u  10:04, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hello !dea4u , I feel the same way about it :) However, this page is to request access to edit the Foundation's own wiki, which is generally limited to staff and volunteers who want to update specific pages about chapter activities that they are involved in. If you can give me more information about edits you wish to make on the Foundation wiki, I can give you a better answer. Best, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 15:23, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • E-mail address: resident.mario@gmail.com
  • Reason why I need an account: I'm a writer at the Signpost and I'd like to create an account because, as fun as it is to parse through various staffers making small changes to their WMF userpages every month, I'd quite like to...not have to do that. To that effect I need an account so I can set up a related-changes tracker for myself and other writes, as I did for instance here on the meta-wiki. Resident Mario (talk) 14:34, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
While I'm here, @PEarley (WMF):: wmf:Minutes/2015-02-06, under "Strategy update and annual plan" the first word should be "Lila", not "Lile" :). Reading it I was very briefly very confused. ResMar 01:08, 6 April 2015 (UTC) [reply]
Resident Mario, account created - check your email for a temp password. Looks like Steinsplitter got the typo, though (cheers, Steinsplitter). PEarley (WMF) (talk) 15:18, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Patrick! In my opinion Work_with_us and Our_projects will be a good start. I haven't noticed these pages on Meta or maybe I didn't search for them well enough. In the near future - pages related to local chapters as in Local_chapters - the process of creation in Bulgaria is in progress and probably we will need some translated pages, where the wikimedians of Bulgaria will be able to find helpful info. --Vodnokon4e (talk) 02:22, 13 June 2015 (UTC) [reply]
Vodnokon4e, thanks for your help on the Bulgarian chapter info, and the explanation. I'm not sure that the first two pages you linked are set up for translation, though. Check your inbox for a login and a temporary password. Patrick Earley (WMF) (talk) 17:29, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Projects where I'm involved: fr, and Wikimedia CH (I'm Board)
  • E-mail address: pp.lechien(_AT_)gmail.com
  • Reason why I need an account: I manage the OTRS file at WMCH and we got an complaint that the Foundation's Donation page (in French) has some major inconsistencies (basically the number of employees here is inconsistent with the number of employees in the infobox there). I can totally survive without an account being created, but either way this has to be corrected (replacing 100 employees in the infobox with {{STAFF-COUNT}}). --Popo le Chien (talk) 10:22, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

wmf:User:Nemo_bis

Please add IP block exempt flag to my account, consistent with global flag granted per NOP due to Tor usage. I currently can't edit. --Nemo 21:14, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • To be clear the main reason I want it to be temporary is just that Tor Block shouldn't be enabled imo and I plan to turn it off (probably for all private/fishbowl wikis). I could care less what IP you/anyone is using to edit those wikis, that shouldn't be how we are controlling edits and I have no issue ensuring that doesn't stop you from doing anything.

You don't need an account at WMF wiki to add an image on Kashish Singh. Just browse commons then log in with your current username and password and then upload a free photograph of Kashish Singh. After finishing the upload you can add that picture on any Wikimedia project you like. Wikipedia:Picture tutorial and Help:Adding image might be helpful for you.
