Wikimedia Stories Project[edit]Hello, My name is Victor Grigas, and I'm a storyteller at the Wikimedia foundation. We're telling stories of Wikipedia users, editors, donors, programmers and staff to paint a picture of who uses Wikipedia - for the 2011 fundraiser. I am in the process of planning a trip to India to gather stories from Indian Wikipedians in face-to-face interviews (possibly on video). My primary goal is to conduct 15-20 interviews, and hopefully enough of my interviews will make compelling stories that will effectively solicit donations from the public. These stories may also be used for other communication purposes by the foundation. I found your userpage on a list of prolific Wikipedians and thought I’d reach out to you. Prolific editing is always a good story to tell! If you are interested in participating, please contact me via my email: vgrigas@wikimedia.org Thank you for your time! Victor About me: I have been a Wikipedia editor since 2005, and have a background in film, video and audio.
