.
The Wikimedia movement has the opportunity to vote for the selection of
community-and-affiliate trustees. The Board is expected to select the four
most voted candidates to serve as trustees. Voting closes 17 August 2021.
The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_of_Trustees>
oversees the Wikimedia Foundation's operations. The Board wants to improve
their competences and diversity as a team. They have shared the areas of
expertise
