On behalf of British community and the election committee, I would like to thank all those who participated in this election. The committee apologises for the delay in getting these results out. Internet access and real life resulted in time not being readily available this weekend and hence the lateness. In total, 27 members of the British community voted in the election, therefore, to reach the 50% requirement, 14 votes in favour of a candidate were required.
5 candidates will head the initial board for Wikimedia UK and be responsible for its set up. Due to only 5 candidates reaching the required 50% vote the board the board will consist of those people. The board members are as follows:
KTC AndrewRT CFP Warofdreams Mike Peel.
I would like to wish the best of luck to all those who will be responsible, whether board members or not, for making Wikimedia UK a fully functional and successful chapter . In time, feedback will be passed onto the board before the next elections to hopefully improve this process.
Thank you to the election committee for their hard work in getting the election done and these results out and congratulations to the winners. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
