Hi everyone,
Wikimedia Deutschland has reviewed the initial content the Movement
Charter Drafting Committee has produced and we published our feedback
and some suggestions on Meta:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Deutschland/Movement_Charter_Draf…
(available in English and German)
We appreciate that the MCDC is beginning to share content. The process
has been slow, yet we think time and patience are necessary. The
committee has a lot of reading and researching to do. And time is
needed to give everyone a chance to catch up, engage in deliberation,
and contribute to the charter. The questions need to come from the
MCDC and the answers from the movement, not the other way round.
We are looking forward to a participatory, iterative process with
continuous conversation, community consultations, and thorough
research leading to a charter that will finally bring about the
changes to keep our movement thriving, open, and relevant.
Kind regards,
Nicole

Hi all,
As most of you are aware, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC) is currently
collecting community feedback about three draft sections of the Movement Charter:
Preamble, Values & Principles, and Roles & Responsibilities (statement of
intent).
How can you participate and share your feedback?
The MCDC is looking forward to receiving all types of feedback in different languages
from the community members across the Movement and Affiliates. You can participate in the
following ways:
Attend the online community conversation hours with MCDC members. Details about, and a
list of all planned regional community conversation hours are published here. First one is
this Sunday, November 20: this one is considered timezone friendly for Northern/Western
Europe and has German and French language interpretation.
You can also choose to:
Fill out a survey (optional and anonymous - still awaiting some final translations,
expected to be complete from November 22 onward)
Share your thoughts and feedback on the Meta Talk pages:
Preamble
Values & Principles
Roles & Responsibilities (statement of intent)
Share your thoughts and feedback on the MS Forum:
Preamble
Values & Principles
Roles & Responsibilities (statement of intent)
Send an email to: movementcharter(a)wikimedia.org if you have other feedback to the MCDC.
If you want to learn more about the Movement Charter, its goals, why it matters and how
it impacts your community, please watch the recording one of the “Ask Me Anything about
Movement Charter” sessions which took place earlier in November 2022.
On behalf of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee,
Best, Ciell
