[edit] Live

Name: Manuel Schneider

Date of birth: 11th May 1981

Habitation: Steinen, south-western Germany (directly on the border to Switzerland and France)

[edit] Work

After my apprenticeship as IT specialist I'm studying at the university for applied sciences at Basel (Switzerland) to become a graduate engineer in applied computer-science by the end of 2007.

The money I live on I earn by selling my services as internet service provider in webhosting and webdesign. In this context I'm sponsoring some Wikimedia project (see below). If someone wants to have a look onto my work see http://www.masterssystems.de/.

[edit] Wikipedia

[edit] als.wikipedia.org

Mostly I'm working at the Alemannic Wikipedia as Alemannic is my mother tongue.

My jobs there are:

• administrator of the Mailinglist wikials-l
• administrator of the IRC channel #als.wikipedia and operator of the Huusmeischtr
• press contact
• administrator in the Alemannic Wikipedia

[edit] Wikimedia

As member of Wikimedia Deutschland e.V. I was not that interested in becoming member in a Swiss Wikimedia chapter but I helped founding Wikimedia CH and in the end I finally also became a member there.

[edit] MediaWiki

Part of my work as ISP is integrating Wikis, especially MediaWiki. Eg. I worked as a consultant for Coop to help integrating MediaWiki in their IT departments (~400 employees). In this way I get ideas for new extensions of MediaWiki and try to get the permission and the (financial) support from potential users to get someone paid for helping me realising these under GPL.

This list here works as my bookmarks for extensions and bugs I found / I'm working on / I found interesting:
