  33. Edward van Biljon - MVP, MCC (5/13/15)

Wow, we have a lot of legends on this list as well!

And many of these MVPs were awarded after they were Wiki Ninjas: Luiz Campos, Luigi Bruno, Tord (who has joined Microsoft), Yagmoth, Zoltan, Fernando, Gokan, Santosh, Maheshkumar, Benoit, Durval, Sathya, and Edward! (Correct me if I'm wrong.) I believe just Luciano was an MVP first. And even so, it's important to note that most of the MVP winners were contributing in other ways as well. And yes, some MVP winners are no longer MVPs. It's an award that takes a lot of work, each year! But we left the status for the folks where were formerly those things (MVP, MCC, Partner).

From this list, Tord, LeoPonti, and Edward became Microsoft employees after contributing as Wiki Ninjas.

There you go! 33 members! That's a lot! Thanks to all the previous contributions from our former authors!

Wiki, wiki, wiki, whaaaat????
