  Angela Beesley I'm the Vice-President of Wikia, the company which owns Wikicities, a project I co-founded with Jimmy Wales in October 2004. I've been a volunteer editor at Wikipedia for over two years, and I'm on the board of its parent organisation, the Wikimedia Foundation. I'm originally from England and am currently living in Melbourne, Australia with my boyfriend. More details can be found on Wikipedia or on my website.

Fix/sort out

 * Link TOU to MediaWiki:Disclaimerpage on all wikis once interwiki linking works.
 * Help:Troubleshoot Wiki - change to a FAQ.
 * Use of "Wikipedia" on toki pona: incl namespace
 * copyrights pages are on everything up to boston. Not on superstar (wrong namespace). See MittelalterWiki:Copyrights for German version & Древни цивилизации:Авторски права for Bulgarian). see whitewolf and nagasaki. previous probs also on inuyasha and lucid
 * The Interwiki link for military: doesn't seem to be working yet

Tech/moving wikis etc

 * Get rid of germanpodcast completely. no db backups or redirects needed anymore
 * Remove all content from comedy so it can be restarted
 * university: should have been merged with students: months ago. Is there a way to import all content from U to S and then redirect the old url there to students?
 * move search to a new wiki called search-archive. search should be restarted, not fixed. it's much too broken.
 * Tablature - make sure the DB dumps are not available
 * en.paintball has no mailing list
 * http://nintendo.wikicities.com - make a portal for en and fr, but note that the en url actually goes to gameinfo, not en.nintendo
