Besides your work on TechNet Wiki, where do you contribute?
I am one of the admins of SiteBuilders.org, which can be the oldest and still popular mail-list based group in Turkey, mainly used to get help about Microsoft products and IT issues. Occasionally we organize free seminars for our members or events to meet and socialize. I am also moderating a few MS TechNet Forums in Turkish. I have a personal blog that I blog generally how-to’s when I experience a problem and can’t find the adequate or direct answer on the internet.
Turkish: SiteBuilders.org adinda mail listesi tabanli bir kullanici toplulugunun yöneticilerinden biriyim, Türkiye’deki en eskilerden ve ayni zamanda halen popüler olan grup genelde Microsoft ürünleri ve genel bilisim teknolikileri alaninda yardim arayanlar tarafindan kullanilmakta. Zaman zaman üyelerimize ücretsiz seminerler düzenlemekte veya bulusmalar organize edilmektedir. Ayrica MS Tehnet forumlarinda bir kaç forumun moderatörlügünüde yapmaktayim. Kisisel blogumda ise genelde tatmin edici cevap bulamadigim sorunlarla ilgili nasil yapilir yazilari yazmaktayim.
What is TechNet Wiki for? Who is it for?
It’s a great and living technical resource for everybody, so anybody can join and help to make it bigger, better and more useful.
Turkish : TechNet Wiki herkesin kulanimina açik çok büyük ve yasayan bir kaynak; isteyen herkes katkida bulunabilir ve onun daha kapsamli ve faydali olmasina katki saglayabilir.
What do you do with TechNet Wiki, and how does that fit into the rest of your job?
It’s a great resource for me to look when I need, as articles go beyond the standard technical descriptions by reflecting knowledge and experiences of other users.
Turkish: Ihtiyacim oldugunda çok faydali bir kaynak sayarak basvurmaktayim, çünkü diger meslektaslarimin bilgi ve deneyimlerinide içerdiginden normal teknik dokumanlarin ötesinde kullanisli bir kaynak.
What is it about TechNet Wiki that interests you?
Wiki topics are like living organism so they enhance by time and provide more in-depth and practical information. I love to idea of seeing growing articles and being surprised when I re-visit an article.
Turkish: Wikiler canli organizmalar gibi, zamanla gelismekte, daha detayli ve ayni zamanda pratik bilgiler sunmakta. Bir yaziyi tekrar ziyaret ettigimde onun zamanla ne kadar degistigini ve gelistigini görüp sasirmak güzel.
What are your favourite Wiki articles you’ve contributed?
My favourite is the one about NetBootGUIDs, it provides very simple but not easily locatable and tested how-to information about cleaning pre-staging properties from computer objects. I have written it to solve specific deployment problems when WDS used to create computer accounts.
Turkish : Favorim NetBootGUID hakkinda olan diyebilirim, cok basit ancak kolay bulunamayan bir nasil yapilir bilgisi içermekte AD’de WDS tarafindan yaratilmis bilgisayar objelerinde bulunan bu degeri temizlemek icin, bununla ilgili bir sorun yasadigimda arastirmis ve yazmistim.

Not someone, everyone in the Wiki impressed me! Knowledge grows when shared.
Turkish: Birisi degil, herkes etkiledi. Bilgi paylastikça çogalir.
