My Work
Hello World. I help to support Diff, the Wikimedia movement community blog. Recently I've also helped with A Wiki Minute series of videos. Oh, and the work to improve the Foundation's presence on Meta-wiki.

You've probably seen my name on a Village Pump or two in the past as well supporting our product teams.

I've been with the Foundation for more than eight years now, and have been a MediaWikian and Wikipedian since 2013.

I try to be a partner to those underrepresented in our community and work to have better representation of the diverse voices in our projects. I'm someone who tries to follow the idea of New Sincerity. In short, I'm honest with minimal irony or sarcasm.
About Me
My name is Chris Koerner. (My last name is pronounced Ker-ner). I live on the unceded lands of the Kiikaapoi people in the Midwestern United States.

Please reach out to me however suits you best and I’ll get back to you.

Renunsia
I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in that role. However, the Foundation does not vet all my activity, and edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
