I'd like to help make it easier to be friendly on Wikipedia, and to collaborate independently of existing power structures. One angle I'm pursuing is to deprecate many forms of deletion in favor of moving content from the canonical encyclopedia into a branch or sandbox, and making it simple to merge federated content back into the canonical version. Feel free to contact me about anything: awight@wikimedia.org

Tyler Romeo MediaWiki I am most interested in projects related to code review and easier volunteer development.
