Hello, all. :)
My name is Maggie Dennis. I am the Vice President of Community Resilience & Sustainability,[1] and I am hosting another Community Resilience & Sustainability Office Hour on Thursday, December 10, 2020 at 20:00 UTC. I work directly under the General Counsel of the Wikimedia Foundation, Amanda Keton, who hopes to join us as well. Topics within scope for this call include Trust and Safety (and the Universal Code of Conduct, with a second phase launching in January), Community Development, and Human Rights. This is not a presentation; it is an open invitation to come with your questions or feedback and talk!
The meeting will be on December 10 at 20:00 UTC — see https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1607630459 for your local time.
This call will be streamed and available on demand at https://youtu.be/oyEYwjio72c
We will host this office hour on Zoom, taking questions from the Zoom chat, Telegram, IRC, and YouTube, as well as collecting them in advance over email.[2]
We will be taking notes to go alongside the video recording. I will be fielding questions from Wikimedians in good standing (that is, not Foundation or community banned) and will follow up with anything I can't get to during the meeting in writing after the call.
The caveats from before remain in place, which I will repeat for convenience:
I can't and won't discuss specific Trust & Safety cases. Instead, I can discuss Trust & Safety protocols and practices and approaches.
I can talk civilly about our work even if you disagree with me or I disagree with you. I will not respond to comments or questions that are disrespectful to me, to my colleagues, or to anyone in our communities. I won't compromise on this.
You can read the notes from our two previous calls here (June 2020)[3] and here (October 2020).[4]
I hope to see you there.
Best,
Maggie
