The Wikipedia Library (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:The_Wikipedia_Library) is expanding into multiple languages, and is needing more and more coordination of online and offline volunteers. Requested name either "wikilibrary-l" or if standardization doesn't allow for that "wikilibrary"
Before I create the list for you, I require the following information: 1. Who is supposed to be the list administrator? Please provide at least two e-mail addresses for people willing to take on the job. 2. Should list archives be public or private? 3. Should new subscriptions be approved by list moderators/administrators, or should users be automatically subscribed upon confirmation (which they do themselves)? Thank you!

Would it be acceptable for you if the list was named 'wikipedia-library' per <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Standardization>?

The list has now been created, and I configured it to have private archives, with new members added upon administrator approval. You can configure the rest of the settings, including list description and a terse identifying phrase at the following web page: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/admin/wikipedia-library The web page for users of your mailing list is: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikipedia-library Please list and describe your mailing list at the appropriate section of: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Overview I just sent the admin password to the three given e-mail addresses, and made them list administrators. This request is now closed; enjoy your new mailing list! Tomasz
