Description Aude 2011-01-19 22:01:14 UTC
We should have a mailing list for Wikimedians in the United States to discuss Wikimedia stuff that pertains to the US only.  This would also be a place for Wikimedians not covered by existing lists (e.g. DC, NYC, SF) and hopefully be useful in building more of a community among volunteers in the US.

PS - I thought something existed for wikimedia-us, but was inactive.  Now, I can't find it and wikimedia-us says nothing exists:

Comment 1 Aude 2011-01-20 02:13:25 UTC
Now, I found https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaus-l but don't see it listed under https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo

Can it please be listed among the mailing lists?  

Maybe, also if Pharos doesn't mind, I'd like to be added as a list admin and help get the list going again.
Comment 2 Pharos 2011-01-20 16:22:56 UTC
Sure, I've added you as a list admin now, Aude :)
Comment 3 Casey Brown 2011-01-21 03:02:51 UTC
WORKSFORME since the list already exists. :-)  Re: the name, yeah, if it were created today it would be called "Wikimedia-US", but since it's an old school list, it's still at WikimediaUS-l.
Comment 4 Aude 2011-01-21 03:18:15 UTC
The list works for me too. :)  Let's get it listed at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo and then we can close this bug.
Comment 5 Casey Brown 2011-01-21 03:26:21 UTC
If you guys decide that you want to advertise it on the main listinfo page, just login to the admin interface and set <https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/admin/wikimediaus-l/?VARHELP=privacy/subscribing/advertised> to "Yes".  Pharos should have sent you the password to the list and if not, he should soon. ;-)

Thanks Pharos & Casey!
