The Utqiagvik founder's page is dedicated to those people in the Utqiagvik area that initially made the Utqiagvik WikiXM news a reality. Without their initiative, foresight and social fortitude the Utqiagvik WikiXM news would not have happened. Like all those that have come before us, these founder saw what others couldn't - potential in a new way of doing an old medium - a new way of providing the news to the people around them. We want to thank these people by featuring them on the Utqiagvik founders page for life. There are many venues to get the news but WikiXM was initiated by your founders, for the people of Utqiagvik, to create the news they saw fit.
WikiXM - Utqiagvik, AK is the people's news source; for the people, by the people.
