Wikipedia:Wikipedians
Wikipedians are the people who write and edit articles for Wikipedia. There are currently over 400 confessed contributors (although there are nearly 900 user accounts). This arguably makes a community - see Wikipedia commentary/The Wikipedia Community.
Here is a list of all the contributors who have put their name on this list. There are no particular requirements for Wikipedians' personal pages; some people write up bios, some don't; some Wikipedians maintain a private catalogue of their work (their WiPITs), some don't. We begin with lists of people by place and by time of arrival, followed by a complete listing. If you put your name on a place listing such as Wikipedians/Australians, please don't neglect also to include your name on the main list.
Listing by country:
- Please list yourself both by your nationality and also by your place of current residence! For example, if John has moved to the U.S. from Ireland, he can put himself in both places at once (if he wants to). If you list yourself here, please also list yourself on the complete alphabetical listing, below.
- Andorra
- Australia
- Austria
- Basque Country (which most people view as a cross-border region of Spain and France, not as a country... but some Basque nationalists disagree)

Someone would be doing an enormous good service to the community by redirecting all the above user pages to user: namespace pages--along with their subpages, mind you! --Larry_Sanger
- Just to clarify (since it has been misunderstood by at least one person), Larry means that the pages themselves need to be moved to the user namespace, and the old pages redirected. The links here can be changed too, of course, but only once the pages have been moved.
I'll attempt to do this: I've gotten to #15 (Amir) so far, but I think I'll go back and do the subpages later - they aren't as important. Dreamyshade
Fixed up to 100 (Dave McKee) so far.
