This pagWikipedia as a reference ever"? --><ref>http://identi.ca/notice/5700660
This page lists '''Wikimedia Foundation contractors'''.

A few ground rules for listing a person here:
* "contractor" is used loosely here and isn't meant to be derogatory;
* use reasonable clues to try to determine whether or not someone is being contracted by the Wikimedia Foundation and include references as necessary; a wikimedia.org e-mail address, mailing list announcements and blog posts are all good clues; in addition, there is an official microblogging feed, <tt>wikimediaatwork</tt>, on [http://identi.ca/wikimediaatwork Identi.ca] and on [http://twitter.com/wikimediaatwork Twitter] to communicate about these positions;
* do not add people listed at [[wmf:Staff]], [[wmf:Board of Trustees]], or [[wmf:Advisory Board]];
* use [[w:en:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]] date format;
* if you are adding yourself, consider making sure that the "Enable e-mail from other users" option is enabled in [[Special:Preferences|your preferences]];
* previous contractors are not removed in general, but the <code>Ended</code> date parameter is added;
* [[w:WP:BOLD|be bold]] in updating this page!
