Dear Wikimedians for Offline Wikis User Group,
I'm writing on behalf of the Affiliations Committee to request your
feedback on a proposed new user group.
As you probably know, Wikimedia user groups are intended to be simple
and flexible affiliates which offer an initial recognition for
qualifying groups to be able to operate with a brand name and logo use
for local projects and events.[1] User groups may come and go, or stay
to thrive and grow as user groups, or sometimes develop into chapters or
thematic organisations.
User groups do not have "ownership" or "exclusivity" of any territory,
and we encourage many user groups to coexist within the same region. We
aim to ensure peaceful coexistence by working with all new and existing
groups to identify their planned activities and goals, to connect on
shared movement goals, and to balance any potential overlaps with
agreements for operating in shared spaces.
At this time, we are reaching out to let you know that there is a new
group, Kiwix Wikimedians User Group [2], which has submitted an
application for recognition as a Wikimedia User Group. We are requesting
your feedback because this group seems to be working in some of the same
community or thematic spaces as you are. We want to hear any
observations, concerns, or other thoughts that you might be able to
offer regarding the group and its work so that the committee can
consider them as it reviews this application.
