- in that group, we were building
useful
non-article pl.Wikipedia pages. The goal was to make them clear, friendly, standard, up-to-date, detailed but sufficient and not too long, effectively suggested to users when needed. We were restructuring, redesigning, updating, archiving, merging and creating
totally all

Wikipedia:
namespace, help pages, templates with their documentation, categories and navigation, WikiProjects and Portals,
MediaWiki:
pages, and more.
- co-author of a reviewed paper on the use of pl.Wikipedia in Polish administrative courts (after that, I wrote 2 other papers related to Wikimedia and law)
