Hello all,
Diptanshu Das has now resigned from his position in the editorial board of WikiJMed, as well as the WikiJournal Council (link to online votes and further comments https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Talk:WikiJournal_of_Medicine/Editorial_board ).
I have several suggestions of updates to WikiJournal guidelines following those recent incidents:
- Votes to remove an editorial board member should have a specified
duration, allowing time for people to notice the event. Rather arbitrarily, I suggest 5 days. Thus, the addition to the "Removal" section of the bylaws of WikiJournal and each individual journal would for example be "An *Official* may be removed by a majority of votes among people in an electorate as specified in ARTICLE III, Section 4 https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_of_Medicine/Bylaws#Section_4._Electorate, counting after at least 5 days of voting."
- While we are updating the bylaws, I suggest that we rename the
"WikiJournal Council" to the "Administrative board" of WikiJournal, to clarify that it focuses on admin tasks such as financials, Internet domain names and technical maintenance of the project, allowing the editorial boards to focus on the subjects of their expertise. I also suggest that we create a separate email list for members of this group. Still, important matters such as the content of the next grant proposal will be posted to editorial boards as well. And of course people can join both the admin and editorial boards.
Best regards,
Mikael
