Sounds like a good idea, but possibly best timed when there are more
people around than just the staff - we don't really have time to edit
Wikipedia articles much these days!

Yes, indeed. I always like asking people to do some work....

In particular, Daria's role in the training and other events has been
novel, and positive.
With four of you in the office, I am lucky to able to pop in for a
chat (living a few miles away)... and the Boris Bike docking station
outside the front door makes WMUK HQ even more accessible!

P.S. How about an irregular one hour (lunchtime) walk to explore the
area? I am a trained walk leader, with insurance. Staff and everybody
else welcome! We could call it a "wiki walk".... :-)

There are 114 very detailed questions (reminds me of a nightmare

I can see the logic of that.

I think what I was suggesting was to scan the whole document, pick
up the obvious questions, with very obvious answers :-) and then
answer those. Maybe six. No need to answer them all. But there is
need to address the questions, not just go 100% freestyle in any
response.
And yes, this could have been started in December 2011.

I was planning to take this forward, and sent an email to this very
list on this subject on 27 December.
However, I ended up using the energy I could have spent on this on
the Wikimedia fundraising debate instead...

Also, this has shown up an interesting dynamic between the paid
staff at WMUK HQ (Silicon Roundabout), the Trustees (Directors) and
the rest of us!
Cheers,
