Wikibio is a project of the Institute of Wikipediology, that creates NPOV non-user page sources of information about Wikipedians' activities, history, and wikibeliefs.
Please keep in mind:
- Wikibios are voluntary on the part of the subject. Please do not create a wikibio without its subject's participation or consent; if you do so, it will be deleted.
- Wikibios are not extensions of user pages. Information about your pet gecko does not belong here, nor does information not available at wikipedia, even if it is "relevant" — such as e-mails or conversations at meetups.
- Wikibios are not vanity pages. Subjects should have at least 5,000 edits (possibly not all in English), have served in an appointed or elected capacity at Wikipedia, and/or have been here at least two years; any—not necessarily all—of these qualifications and have volunteered to be the subject of a wikibio. (These standards may be relaxed over time.)
- Wikibios are not Signpost articles; events described in wikibios should be at least a month old.
- Wikibios should be reasonably sourced, using talk pages, nominations, Signpost, etc.

- Andrevan - I have created it, but I'm not interested in writing it all myself.
- BD2412 - I suppose there's a story somewhere among those 50,000 edits.
- Can't sleep, clown will eat me - Sure, why not. 8-)
- Celestianpower - Thanks those who created
- ClockworkSoul - Go for it. You can ask me anything you like, but I don't have the mental/emotional/physical/temporal resources to write it myself.
- Drini Go ahead, I fullfill a few —not necessarily all— of inclusion criteria.
- Flcelloguy - Umm... why not? I'd rather not write it myself, though, as that would be inherently POV. :-)
- freakofnurture - ok.
- Grunt - well, if you think I'm that important...:) -- Grunt 17:26, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
- Guanaco
- Hephaestos - no contributions from me obviously ;)
- Ingoolemo: If y'all write it, I'll feel really important. :)
- Jaranda - Why not, I recently passed the 5000 edit mark :)
- JCarriker NPOVing, expansion, source
- {{User:otcnews/wikibios|L. Edward Bache, Sr.,]] created
- Jmabel created
- Jobe6 Go ahead if you really want to.
- Johnleemk Sure, sounds like a great idea. My userpage and User:Johnleemk/Bio can help if anyone's actually interested in this.
- KnowledgeOfSelf Sure couldn't hurt, just be nice!
- Linuxbeak Sure, why the heck not.
- llywrch I hope this scavanger hunt doesn't prove that my credit report is findable thru a Google search.
- MacGyverMagic - I'm not sure why anyone would wanna read it, but if someone's up for creating it, I have no objections.
- Merovingian - Why not? :D
- Messedrocker - feel free to write one on myself -- I want to see what a biography of myself not written by me would look like.
- NerdyNSK - NerdyNSK 20:52, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
- Nightstallion – Sure, if you find something you think you could write about... shrugs
- Pureblade - I suppose, if you can find anything to write about.
- Redwolf24 - no problem, but I'd prefer to not write it on myself! ;-)
- Schuminweb - Go for it!
- Spangineer - if you build it, will they come?
- Terence Ong - Feel free to write a Wikibio about me. I hope I qualify for it though. :D
- Titoxd - go ahead, I just don't want to do it myself because it borders on WP:VAIN. ;)
- the wub - if you feel like writing some nn editor cruft, be my guest
- Zscout370 - Go right ahead, this could be fun. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 03:32, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Permission denied or creation unlikely
[edit]- Isis- while Isis played a unique role in the history and evolution of the Wikipedia community, given the circumstances of her departure it is most likely impossible that a wikibio could be written on her.
- Essjay - Please leave the redirect to my userpage; the bio is hopelessly out of date and rather embarrassing.
