User:1Shaggy1 -	__	yeah.... excellent....as long as we dont have to do MLA style. *Shudder* MLA.
Adamsan.	__	Splendid idea, I am a recent convert to footnoting everything but can certainly check any claims relating to archaeology, cultural traditions and the past in general. adamsan 11:54, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
User:Aditreeslime	__	I'm joining the cite team.

Arnoutf 19:48, 11 November 2007 (UTC)	has published in academic journals	Can check Dutch language references. Experienced at checking (academic level) texts for necessity (or not) of references. Have to admit will be relatively inactive as little time available.

Johnleemk -	__	I've been campaigning for better referencing for quite a while, as I feel we need to get the habit of citing sources inculcated in our Wikipedia culture on the same level as bolding an article title. I cite sources for whatever suits my fancy, but I tend to focus on economics-, business- and politics-related articles.
Johntex -	__	fact checking on articles I encounter. Also conversion of existing references to the preferred ref-note style.
User:Jude_Maxwell -	__	I generally use Wikipedia to look up random facts, and I'd like to clean-up any articles that I come across that have {{More sources}} listed at the top. Currently working on the Cannibalism article.
JustDerek -	__	As a genealogist, the impulse to cite sources is near and dear to my heart. Formatter, fact-checker, etc. and I have suggestions for standardization of citation/reference format.
Kool-Aid Jammers	__	We are fact checking and making other changes to "Kool-Aid". Thanks The Kool-Aid Jamers

$\sim$ Lenoxus " * " —	__	The truth is, I don't have any one area I'm good with references on, but I'm perfectly happy to go to the library any time I'm not too busy with outside-Wikipedia stuff. Anyway, this project is an absolute no-brainer, and in no way less "feasible" than the whole of Wikipedia. $\sim$ Lenoxus " * " 04:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

User:Neranei	__	I'll join in, but I do have other projects, so please be patient, but I will try to help. Thanks! You guys are doing awesome stuff! Giggy UCP Yeah, I'll help out...generally just find random articles to fix up.

P.MacUidhir (t) (c) -	__	I am interested in doing fact-checking / providing article citations / whatever for any articles related to northern Europe in general, pagan religions, library science, Celtic languages, and Germanic languages. Topics that focus on items/events/people after 1650 C.E. do not much interest me. Anything older usually * will* catch my interest. Requests can be posted to my (talk page).
Pearlg -	__	Fact checker, primarily in political science, general science, and engineering.
Pedant	__	fact checking, recruiting... count me in, I'll factcheck anything, drop a link to the article and a quick note on my talk page, if I can't do it I'll point out the part I couldn't do to someone else.

Raphaelmak	__	Check for places in articles that need ref, add the {{fact}} tag or, if possible, add a reference.
Satanael	__	Count me in. I'm not too keen on writing an A+ essay for each edit, but I'll provide info and sources whenever possible. See my personal page and make requests for something you want. Satanael 22:32, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Yahel Guhan	__	Add {{unreferenced}} and {{fact}} where needed.
Sewing -	__	I'll lend ideas as I think of them, but I'm too busy with other things to devote much time to this right now, even though it is undeniably a critical issue for Wikipedia...
