[edit] Admin?

Hi Rotemliss! You probably won't read this for a couple of days, but there's no rush. I was just wondering if you are interested in becoming an administrator here.

he.wp is in the top 20 Wikipedias and yet we have very few Hebrew users here. A Hebrew-speaking admin can act as a bridge between the Commons community and the he.wp community and encourage users there to use the Commons, as well as help explain the rules to them. Another important problem is that of translation, especially since Hebrew is a RTL script and non-latin (quite scary to people who only speak English ;)). Most admins don't do very much translation, but they can also identify people in their local projects who are happy to help. The more of the interface and help files that we have translated, the more comfortable Hebrew speakers will feel when using the Commons.

Despite all that I've said, being an admin here is quite a laid-back affair. Many admins are quite inactive here -- it's totally up to you how much you do (but obviously, we consider the more, the better!). Even if you intend to do very little, having a Hebrew admin as a point of contact for non-Hebrew speaking admins is extremely useful.

So... what do you think? I would be very happy to nominate you, or if you like, you can self-nominate. The guidelines are at Commons:Administrators. Let me know what you think.

(PS - I am asking Gilgamesh as well, but don't feel that if they nominate, you don't have to -- it's certainly much better to have two than one!)
