That's a great start to your email! Here's a slightly revised version for even stronger impact:
*Dear Nicolas and Nanour,* I am writing to express my keen interest in joining the Wikisource User Group Committee. I followed the discussions about the future of the group during the last monthly meeting and was very inspired by the proposed initiatives. I have reviewed the draft governance document at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zpnQGEeAmVpGTv63WrFmLsE_cYEXEfrvK4BeCbtt5xA and find it to be a comprehensive and well-thought-out plan. *[Optional: Highlight Specific Experience]* My experience in Wikisource, combined with my broader involvement in other group activities and committees, gives me a strong foundation to contribute meaningfully to the committee's work. I am eager to learn more about the specific goals and challenges facing the user group and how I can best support them. I would be happy to attend the upcoming Wikimania meeting to discuss this further. Thank you for your time and consideration. *Sincerely,* *Adel Nehaoua* *Chef centre d'affaire d'expertise * *Route des abattoirs BP 89 Sétif * *Mob: +213 661 130 760 * *Tel : +213 36 748 672 * *Fax :+213 36 748 671 * Le ven. 2 août 2024 à 14:07, Julius Hamilton <[email protected]> a écrit : > Cool!
