Why not... I'll prepare initial configuration later today. But before this I have one question. Why the site should be named mwugwikimedia? Why not maiwikimedia?

Thanks @Urbanecm for your suggestion. go for maiwikimedia.

Hmm... I am not sure we can create new wikis out of the blue without prior approval from someone? I am not opposing but I think we need to check that out first IMHO.

I think we can create special wikis (such as those for chapters, user groups or arbcoms) only if we have agreement from the org which want the wiki.

@Urbanecm To avoid doubts I've asked @Kirill_Lokshin as chair of the AffCom. If approval is not needed then we can clarify the guidelines for future requests. Regards.

@Dereckson Can you have a look at and move it forward? Or tell me if there is anything I can do.

I've discussed this task with @biplabanand this Friday on IRC and offered to plan a window next week (so this week) to create the wiki.

Sent a mail to greg with this and Dinka to request a window: my plan is to have a 3 hours windows a morning before EU SWAT so we can create all the pending remaining wikis.
