[edit] Autobiography
Welcome, Yuri! We're glad to have you here at wikipedia, but we have strict guidelines for who we can include biographies of, and writing an autobiography of yourself in the main article space is generally frowned on, even if you're Jimbo Wales. Feel free to write about other people who meet the guidelines of WP:BIO, though! Night Gyr 08:06, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Marijuana Wiki
Dobri Dyen!
I see that you are a pro-Cannabis Wikipedian so I hope this will be of some interest to you.
I've started a Marijuana wiki (aka The Sticky Wiki) which I think you might be interested in. I'm hoping you can help me get started with this project. Whereas lots of articles about weed get speedy-deleted on Wikipedia, they would be totally cool over at MarijuanaWiki. But really I want the site to be more of a marijuana community than merely an encyclopedia.
To give you an example, I want to have city guides about where to score, find pot-friendly cafes, marijuana events, and what represents a good price in that city. Etc. (You can check out the featured article: "Toronto" to see what I mean). I also want to have grow diaries and marijuana blogs. All in all, basically more communal than encyclopedic.
I am in need of admins/moderators, and people experienced with MediaWiki to help build policy, categories, and templates, etc. If you'd be interested in helping me with this project, the URL is MarijuanaWiki
Thanks for your time and consideration. Hope to see you there!
