Colleges get serious[edit]

The article discusses mentoring programs. Can you add some information about how to help out? -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:07, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ssilvers has already figured out the answer to this, but see Wikipedia:Online Ambassadors for more on the mentoring program.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 13:45, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"The Wikimedia Foundation intends to recruit 15 more professors by the northern spring, and in the longer term to work towards widening the scope of the Initiative beyond the subject of public policy."

Who is the contact person for this at the WMF? -- Jeandré, 2010-09-17t20:56z

The main contact person for recruiting public policy professors is Annie Lin. I am also working on this, and interested professors (of public policy or anything else) can also sign up for the interest list at Wikipedia:Campus Ambassadors.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 13:45, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Share this floater[edit]

The "share this" floating thing on the RHS is quite annoying, as it overlaps the text on my screen (1024x600), making the articles unreadable. Can someone move/disable it? User A1 (talk) 23:22, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
