Well if they get stuck, I know a guy who can advise them.

He only charges $75 an hour.

And he has such a wonderfully healthy attitude when it comes to paid staff working with volunteers toward common goals.....

Did I mention he is Wikipedia's most trusted Administrator? Always helping new users finding their feet at the Help Desk.

Help! Why can't I create an account?

Pay me and I'll tell you. ;)


Alternatively, contact my partners at support@wikipediocracy.com

They might not be able to help, but at least they will work for food.
