I am sure Siko chose all her words carefully, and I encourage anyone who hasn't to read and consider her message carefully.[1] But for now, I'll limit my comments to the sentence quoted above -- and specifically, the second of the four values Siko chose to identify.
Integrity must be a core value for any organization. Any effort of multiple people to work toward a common goal must protect integrity as a baseline value. It is so central and obvious, in my view, that we Wikimedians have managed to neglect adding it to the central expressions of our values we have produced over the years.
On a related note, a few weeks ago I started putting together a set of pages on Meta-Wiki about Values.
The pages most relevant to this discussion are:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Values/History
and
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Values/Review/2016
Discussion is much welcome on the talk pages, especially if people are interested in collaborating on a process for the latter.
