Hi everyone,
I want to share this message with you. It is from Franziska Putz, Movement
Advocacy Manager at the Foundation.
This team is trying to map all the copyright advocacy work that has ever
happened in the Wikimedia movement. However, they are having a hard time
finding more examples and contacts in the US. Maybe groups, GLAM
institutions, or even individual Wikimedians in this mailing list can help
them?
Thank you so much!
Best,
Giovanna F.

*Subject:* Wikimedians & copyright campaigns? Crowdsourcing!
Hi all,
I'm Ziski from the Wikimedia Foundation's Global Advocacy team. I'm
reaching out about a new project that we launched to document copyright
advocacy initiatives across the Wikimedia movement.
*What: *We are trying to map the copyright advocacy work that Wikimedians
have conducted since roughly 2016. Full project details here
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/2023/03/02/help-wikimedia-map-your-efforts-to-im…>
.
*Why: *This project will help us learn about our movement’s shared
copyright public policy priorities, the common obstacles that communities
face, and the campaign materials (as well as other resources) that
Wikimedians have created or are creating as part of these advocacy efforts.
We'll also compile and share all of the content folks have created as part
of their campaigns - infographics, public comments, etc.
Have you worked with Wikimedians to change copyright public policy? If yes,
please get in touch! Otherwise, please let us know who else we should
contact.
Hope to hear from you,
Ziski

Hi everyone!
Reminder to fill in this survey about your favorite tools!
*https://forms.gle/RDnzCqPxrqqx9P7T8
<https://forms.gle/RDnzCqPxrqqx9P7T8>*
*Esta pesquisa em português*
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfStNt-KCv5RDEPJbf8z1uIos07X5IRIgh…>
Wikimedia Sverige / the Content Partnerships Hub wants to help to support
important tools that are crucial for Wikimedia content partnerships -
maintain them, and make sure they keep running. To know better which tools
we should prioritize, *this survey asks you: what are your favorite (and
most crucial) tools <https://forms.gle/RDnzCqPxrqqx9P7T8>* to do content
partnerships?
Please take a bit of time to complete this survey. *The outcomes will be
used to choose and prioritize tools that we will work on next year* (if we
can collect enough funding). *We are taking the input in this survey very
seriously*.
*Please also forward this to other Wikimedians, volunteers, and to your
GLAM partners. *
You can also still help translate the survey questions to your language;
see instructions at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Content_Partnerships_Hub/Software/Tool_prio…
.
Thank you, and wishing happy holidays to all who will celebrate in
the upcoming weeks!

A wonderful initiative. Thanks, Sandra, and Wikimedia Sverige for leading
this!
Shani.
