Hi,
Is this a legitimate WMF website?
It is a pre-launch site going through a community review and maintained by
the Movement Strategy and Governance team at the Wikimedia Foundation.
Trying to trace where this website is
being hosted doesn't go very far - the domain seems have its DNS at
gandi.net, with the registration via
pir.org, and its contact info is at
afilias.info? Compare to
wikimedia.org that at least says "Registrant
Organization: Wikimedia Foundation, Inc.".
Yes, this is being discussed at one of the questions of the community
review:
What do you think about the proposed name and domain?
https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/what-do-you-think-about-the-proposed-…
There is no on-site privacy policy, it just links to
wikimediafoundation.org?
See this pinned topic:
User privacy considerations in this forum
https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/user-privacy-considerations-in-this-f…
It's also very much not a mediawiki installation?
It's a Discourse instance.
https://discourse.org is an open-source platform
specializing in community conversations.
Thanks,
Mike

Hello everyone,
This is an invitation to all Movement Strategy participants and
Wikimedians in general to try out a new platform for truly multilingual
collaboration:
Movement Strategy Forum -
https://forum.movement-strategy.org/
<https://forum.movement-strategy.org/>
We have started a community review
<
https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/movement-strategy-forum-community-rev…
period of two months. If the community feedback
is positive, the Forum
will launch in August 2022 before Wikimania. If not, we will follow the
feedback received, changing the proposal or closing it.
We opened the Forum on May 24 with targeted outreach, hoping that the
new site features would work. 😅 A week later, the Wikimedia login has
been used by +200 users, the automatic translation is allowing speakers
of different languages to discuss together, and we are ready to welcome
more reviewers, testers, and other curious minds.
We have just released the first weekly report
<https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/forum-weekly-report/387>. Looking
forward to reading your first impressions in the
next one!
