I mostly write articles and make diagrams. I'm from Altes Land, Lower Saxony.

Proposals

  • Delete outdated bullshit articles automatically – they deteriorate the quality overall
  • Teach <graph> – it's a shame how sparsely it's used
  • Massively disseminate knowledge about Inkscape/SVG, JavaScript, Lua and semiautomatic Wikidata editing. Experts on these topics are bottlenecks. Make people to creators, not consumers!
  • Better solution for updating the vast number of tables in Wikipedia is needed (CSV export, compare tool, ...)
  • Pay someone who creates free, multilingual school material from SVG schemes on Commons. Just talking about OER is not enough.
  • Quickly introduce a Wikidata-based successor to Commons categories before the backlog of un- and miscategorized pictures gets too huge
  • Introduce Chemical Markup support for Wikimedia Commons (or CDK Depict)
  • Wikimedia Maps is very uninformative: OpenTopoMap is much better!
