Meet our community members!

Every week, I'm going to interview a few of our wikiHow members.  This week, we have a total of 5 members, interviewed.  Metsguy234, ISahreMahKnowledgeWisley, Not Perfect But Almost, Love2, and Knight Hawk.

Metsguy234, AKA, Mike's interview

Mike Massaroli joined wikiHow 5 years ago.  He wrote one article, anonymously.  (How to start a baseball card collection)  Mike is an NAB, patrols more, as well as spell-checks, categories, and NFD Guardian.  He's written the most articles in our "Fans of baseball" subcategory, and a few, in other categories.  "I'd like to maybe write an article about NY state government or political internships at some point, in conjunction with the work I'm currently doing in my spare time with a local politician."  He used to be a  committed troll, but that's all changed!  He's running in this March's Admin election, and has ran 8 times!  Hopefully he'll get elected this time!  Good luck Mike!  http://www.wikihow.com/User:Metsguy234

Thank you Mike for letting me interview you! 

Next, a wonderful friend:

Not Perfect But Almost, AKA, Beth's interview

Beth found wikiHow one day, looking up "How to look like a punk".  "The article was really well written," She said, "And the site was really well organized", so, she ended up joining!  Beth loves to patrol Recent Changes and has patrolled a total of 2,318 edits! But the thing she's most proud of, is that she's a great page designer!  She's designed my page, multiple times, and tons of others!  She writes articles in our Personal Care and Style, and Relationships Category and life choices in general.  Beth is a Featured Author with many Rising Stars, and Featured Articles.  She likes to make templates, and has gotten 16 Thumbs ups!  She's a very friendly, and wonderful community member.  http://www.wikihow.com/User:Not-perfect-but-almost

Thanks Beth!  Up next, a person from another country, who has learned the English language, and is a wonderful author at wikiHow

Love2, AKA, Salma's interview

Salma found wikiHow while searching for an article, and when she found wikiHow, she edited part of it, then, she made her account.  She enjoys patrolling the most, and has patrolled 1,604 edits, and she writes about animals.  She loves music, and has written a few articles in that category, as well as some life choice articles.  She's a wonderful page designer, and she's gotten two Rising Stars!  http://www.wikihow.com/User:Love2

Wonderful interview Salma!  Next is a person who cares about me, and his friends, and an active member in the wikiHow IRC chat room

Knight Hawk's interview

Knight Hawk found wikiHow by accident, he was just surfing the web, when he found wikiHow.  "Interested in helping other people learn, I signed up".  He likes to do the Quality Guardian, and writes/edit articles about pets, in our Pets category.  "Pets have always been there for me and they don't judge, they just want you for you".  He currently has 1,765 article views, and 31 Thumbs ups!  Go Knight Hawk!  http://www.wikihow.com/User:Knight-Hawk
 
Thanks so much Knight Hawk for doing this!

Last but not least is

IShareMahKnowledgeWisley, AKA ISMKW's interview

ISMKW found wikiHow while looking for some Rune Scape advice, and he stumbled across a Rune Scape article.  "After a few half-vandalesque, half-useful accounts, I took a break and made this account"  ISMKW hangs out in the forums, but patrolls Recent Changes occasionally.  He writes articles about Rune Scape, and has over 1,000 edits!  He's also running in this March's Admin elections (Go ISMKW!), so wish him luck too!  http://www.wikihow.com/User_talk:IShareMahKnowledgeWisely

And that's our wonderful bunch of this week's users!  Thank's so much for taking time to read this, wish Mike, and ISMKW good luck for the elections, and more blogging to come!  http://www.wikihow.com/
