This technical writer offering his wikiskills for pay is undoubtedly the cricket-loving OS/crat/admin Nichalp.

Besides technical writing, I also am an accomplished senior Wikipedia administrator with several featured articles to my name.

I can help you by metamorphosing technical jargon into simple language that could be understood by a wide audience. If you need a good profile on Wikipedia, I can help you out there too through my rich experience.

This was another blockbuster uncovered, it seems, by Tarantino.

The WMF should hire him, the way computer network firms hire hackers to show them where they're vulnerable.

How many big discoveries has Tarantino uncovered? The man needs a press agent.

Tarantino (M-P-T) is YellowMonkey (T-C-L-K-R-D) ? (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/wtf.gif)

Jimbo was informed that there was a problem on 4th June 2009, but I don't think he was told who. He forwarded that email to functionaries-en@wikimedia.org on June 7, and that email didn't include a name of the culprit.

YellowMonkey started the thread on Jimbo's talk on 9th June 2009, 02:56 UTC, and filled me in with the details at 3:32 UTC.

Viridae started this thread at 03:51 UTC, linking to YellowMonkey's post.

After discussing it with me, YellowMonkey informed the Arbitration Committee of the details at 04:32 UTC.

Alex Bakharev posted the Elance link onto Jimbo's talk page at 05:54 UTC.

Tarantino's first post here was 15:08 UTC, with no more details than what Alex publicly posted nine hours earlier. Tarantino mentions Zithan (T-C-L-K-R-D) here another four and a half hours later - I am pretty sure that everyone knew of that account by then.
