  • July 2023-June 2024: I held a train the trainer program for Wikimedia-OpenRefine trainers, updated documentation, created and helped create WikiLearn courses for OpenRefine, as part of a grant from the Wikimedia Foundation to OpenRefine. I did some editing for this project with this account SFauconnier), but as the project included a lot of extra work, I also spent quite a bit of time in my volunteer capacity editing with my volunteer Spinster account.

I think it's quite obvious that I enjoy working with Wikimedians and as part of the Wikimedia movement :-) If you want to understand my 'working style' better, feel free to consult my User Guide.
