About Me

My name is Svetlana Belkin and I'm an Ubuntu Linux user since 2009- made the switch from Windows XP and found about Ubuntu from Lifehacker. But I started to be a part of the Ubuntu Community in July 2013. Well, more active then I was back when I started. When I started, I mainly tried to answer questions and to police Ask Ubuntu- mainly adding missing tags to questions. Around early 2010, life started to eat me and I stopped being a active person of the Ubuntu Community.

I started to be a part of the Ubuntu Community in July 2013. Well, more active then I was back when I started. When I started, I mainly tried to answer questions and to police Ask Ubuntu- mainly adding missing tags to questions. Around early 2010, life started to eat me and I stopped being a active person of the Ubuntu Community.

Around early 2013, I started to get back into the Ubuntu Community because I started to work on ideas for new programs. I knew that I might get a lead on Ubuntu-Women, since I'm a woman and it's a smaller part of the Ubuntu Community. In July 2013, I joined the mailing-list and quickly discovered that I wasn't the only one that had a hard time finding a team to be part of or how get involved. This started my work on updating the Ubuntu-Women wiki. Then three months later, I joined the Ubuntu Documentation Team.

Contributions

Current Work

Ubuntu Women: I am working on three projects in Ubuntu Women at the moment and all of these deal with helping women to to be involved with Ubuntu and FOSS world.

DocumentationTeam: One of the curators of Ubuntu Community Wiki and also working on documenting the workflow of the team.

NewDocs: Currently the co-owner of #ubuntu-newdocs on irc.freenode.

OhioTeam: Working on trying to get virtual Ubuntu Hours (vUH's) used by the team. Our team members are scattered around our state and not that many live near each other and using the tools that can be found on the net would allow us to have Ubuntu Hours in a different way. The main tools that I'm talking is video/audio chatting along with IRC use.

Past Work

OhioTeam: Helped with writting the VerificationAppication2013

NewDocs: Co-founded with slickymaster the #ubuntu-newdocs channel on irc.freenode.

Future Goals

Most likely, I will be working with Ubuntu-Women to work on getting the Wiki up-date. As for OhioTeam, I would like to reach out to my fellow Ohioan Ubuntu users and meet them in person.

In the short time I've been working with Svetlana, I could see that she is always willing to improve things. She is doing a great job as a point of contact on the Ubuntu-US-OH community, and her work always fulfuills your expectations. Congratulations, keep up the good efforts, and thanks for them! -- jose 2014-01-19 03:15:56

Svetlana is extremely eager to take charge and lead. As part of the Delegation of Authority being issued from 2013-12-19 02:19:17 due to my change in employment status that has some rather harsh terms of employment, she has taken a hard-charging lead along with Unit193 and jamesgifford as fellow deputies.
