;Welcome to the first issue of The Wikifier
Monday 10 January 2011
“Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject, so you know you are getting the best possible information.” —Michael Scott
Since this is the first edition of The Wikifier and my first attempt to an "editorial" or something close to that, I must begin by saying thank you to everyone who gave so generously to our project; it's an enormous privilege and joy to be part of the project. I am so very pleased to introduce this first Issue of the "wikification" newsletter, which I hope will be a success.

In this space, every two months, other editors will present informative and/or instructional editorials, meant to help you. I would like to remind you that the next
I would also like to say a big thank you to any and all who have been involved in pulling this newsletter together and I'm sure you'll join me in wishing them all the best for the future.
Don't be afraid to edit and be bold! Happy editing!
