The results of the 2008 Wikimedia Board of Trustees election ended the 21st of June, 2008. The winner is a polyglot (multilingual) Wikipedia administrator (for Wikipedia Chinese) named Ting Chen (username "Wing" on Wikipedia).
Wing is involved in other Wikimedia projects as well, and has a freestyle "me" page on Wikimedia's website. I put the Chinese version here for fun. He also wrote it in German, French and English.
Wikimedia is in charge of quite a few projects that have revolutionized access to information by making the input collective and empowering and protecting it with the GNU Free Documentation License. This is the same license for any content originally published on Free Language or Freestyle Language or other unrev.org projects. You are encouraged to reuse the information however you like, make it better, etc.
Wikimedia projects such as Wikipedia, Wikibooks and Wiktionary have produced amazing language learning materials, both directly and indirectly. You can view any page on Wikipedia and see other languages for which that page is also available. It's not a translation, it's just the same page on another language's Wikipedia, Wikibooks or Wiktionary. It's an awesome way to read up on a topic in multiple languages and familiarize yourself with vocabulary related to any subject you choose. Handy and freestyle, as well.
你好，
我叫陈霆，在大多数维基的版本中我的用户名是Wing。我住在德国美因茨，我在德语、英语和中文的维基百科上都有活动。我说德、英和汉语，以及一点法语。我是中文维基的管理员之一和中文维基在这里的大使。
如果你想与我对话，或说一声你好，请你不要客气。
:-) Wing
