There's a campaign(1) for nonprofits to disclose the salaries, or at least salary ranges, on job ads. (...) I know practices vary within the movement - I believe the WMF never mentions salaries on ads, and I don't know whether the range is disclosed to applicants or not - some chapters I know do advertise a salary. However, I'd urge all entities within the movement that hire staff to disclose the expected salary ranges for posts they are advertising, as part of their commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion.
FWIW, the WMF does at least disclose its salary ranges internally to staff, which I think does a lot to help with more equitable compensation. I hope they will disclose publicly some day; until then, if you work at the WMF, you can help by entering your salary into transparency projects like Glassdoor [1].
Also, executive compensation is public due to US legal requirements for charitable organizations, and is tracked on meta [2]. Probably not that helpful to most candidates, but might be used to calibrate overall pay levels compared to other organizations.
