Hello all,
 
a few reflections from the swedish horizon, after a few days under the WMF umbrella:
 
We have had an influx of serious, logged-in contributors, mainly from Wikipedia in swedish, but also a couple of new stars. That's great!
 
We have also had a number of serious anonymous edits. That's even better!
 
Of course, we have also had our fair share of vandalism, both anonymous as well as logged-in users. That's less nice, but it was expected.
 
So, thanks to all involved, it seems we're all well on our way!
 
Judging by the serious edits we have had on sv:, I have come to realise that two guidelines/policies are crucial to us in this phase of the project, namely "Welcome, Wikipedians" and "How to re-use Wikipedia content". The latter guideline has a correspondence on Wikitravel Shared (http://wikitravel.org/shared/How_to_re-use_Wikipedia_content), but I do not see any current correspondent on any of the other language versions, except sv:.
 
I checked the language versions (i.e. the ones currently online) and it seems that it:, nl:, pt: and es: lack "Welcome Wikipedians". All language versions except sv: seem to lack "How to re-use Wikipedia content".
 
I'd like to suggest that anyone with lingustical capability, active on the language versions without these two guidelines, translate these guidelines, since it will be of great help to you. On sv:, we also added the aforementioned guidelines to our welcome message, in the hope that it may reduce the amount of explanation needed. It seems to work!
 
 
 
All the best from a snowy and cold Sweden,
