You can follow my participations in French forum and some UK sections like the Directory forum. I'm trying to share and explain the Microsoft recommendations, and provide a solution for asker problem or question about Active directory, Hyper-V, windows server, Exchange and desktop.
I moderate also many sections in French forum by moving a thread to correct forum, marking correct answer etc.
