Hi all,

This is part of the replies of Vishnu four months ago.

---------------------------------------------------

Me:

And also tell the community, who are all involved in the interview process and selection process, and why?

Vishnu:

BEFORE EVEN PUBLISHING THE JOB ADVERTISEMENT WE HAD DECIDED TO PUBLISH A BLOG POST/WRITE-UP ON THE SELECTION PROCESS AND SHARE IT WITH THE WIKIMEDIA INDIA COMMUNITY AS PART OF OUR TRANSPARENCY MEASURE. ONCE THIS IS UP, WILL SHARE THE LINK.

Me:

Please make available the job descriptions/roles for all the employees at meta and share the same in the mailing list.

Vishnu:

YES WE ARE REWORKING THE PROFILES AS THE EARLIER ROLES ARE NO MORE RELEVANT. WE WILL TAKE THIS UP ON PRIORITY AND PUT IT UP ON META. THE LINKS TO A2K TEAM MEMBER PROFILES, SHARED EVERY MONTH IN A2K NEWSLETTERS, WILL IN FUTURE BE LINKED TO THE META PAGES.

--------------------------------------------------------------

If I've missed any updates on this from A2K, let me know.

What happened to the decision? When do you plan to share this, next year? If so you should have told the community. Don't you think so?

Besides user pages (User pages don't have detailed information about the job description) there is no proper work details of anybody on meta

officially

. I don't think there is any even off-wiki

. (Profiles at CIS site are not detailed enough to know their works)

We don't know who is responsible for which work!! Who is doing what?

Few more questions..

Why still 2 new recruits are missing even after several months, at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Access_To_Knowledge/Team,

Why there is no monthly reports updated on meta, https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Access_To_Knowledge/Reports

Why there is no community Mid-year reports updated, https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Access_To_Knowledge/Reports

If there is any report available anywhere, when do you plan to update the meta pages?

Why there is no response to this, Evaluation results after months? How long are your two weeks? https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:India_Access_To_Knowledge/Work_plan_April_2013_-_June_2014/Learning_and_Evaluation

What about "Quarterly Community Survey" mentioned here, https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Access_To_Knowledge/Work_plan_April_2013_-_June_2014/Learning_and_Evaluation? Is there any plan to do this ever?

And on this https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Forum/Archives/2013-08#Terms_.2F_MoU_for_India_A2K_project, which Shyamal brought it up; I'd like to see something concrete from the Foundation.

I don't know about off-wiki, but there hasn't been proper communication on anything on-wiki. If there is a change in plans or updates on any event, we don't get to see that! Why?

Who is accountable for all these discrepancies??

I request the foundation or whoever is responsible for this to make sure everything goes as it planned or discussed, and let the community know what is happening regularly on-wiki.

Thanks.

Regards,
Ansuman
