Greetings,

My name is Keegan, I am a long-time Wikipedian working with the Wikimedia Foundation to smoothly integrate VisualEditor into your wiki.

VisualEditor is a new way of editing that removes the barriers of editing to all, including the ability to edit without knowing wiki-markup. Its intent is to make editing as accessible as writing a document on your computer.

We would like to help your community in setting up documentation and frequently asked questions locally to make this new feature as understood and welcomed as possible in your community. My job is to work with you all here to make this happen. I am an English speaker, but I will work as I have to communicate with you all.

I see that the your Wikipedia has already started its page [[_________]] and some talking has begun for this page. We would like to be sure that you are getting as much information as you need about VisualEditor and if we can answer any questions you might have.

Who would like to help? It is as simple as to start talking about it and making sure your community knows that this is in the near future. Let me know if you have any questions either by my talk page or by email.
