I am majoring in Social Data Analytics and Research at UTDallas and looking for opportunities in the social sector. I have previously worked as a Data Analyst at a botique consulting firm for ~2.7 years.

I got into the EA van thanks to 80k hours. And I got into the 80k hours van when I saw it on HackerNews. And I got into the HackerNews van since CGP Grey mentioned it on the Hello Internet podcast. And I got into Hello Internet (the first podcast I ever listened to) because my family was finally willing to get an internet connection. And my family was able to get an internet connection because of rising internet penetration in India.
So, pop quiz—is increasing internet penetration a good intervention for EA community building? Feel free to DM me your answer and say hi to me! :-)
Is there an Effective Altruism wiki? I found this one: http://effective-altruism.wikia.com/wiki/Effective_Altruism_Wiki but the URL that it asks you to go to doesn’t take you anywhere.
I am sorta new to the EA movement. I think contributing to a wiki will help me learn more. Plus as a non-native English speaker trying to improve English writing skills, I think contributing to a Wiki can be useful to me. So where is the Wiki? If not, shouldn’t we start one or improve the aforementioned wikia page?
