Ah, bueno. I was unaware of the Kartika version; excellent that the Foundation's already figured it out and was working on it.
Thanks, Philippe and MzMcBride. Good job to whoever thought it up earlier and did the test run.

We tested Kartika earlier this week, and it did very very well. So we're putting together a campaign based around editor appeals, and many of the folks we have are not ... well, people who look like me. So I'm very happy about that.
Yep, it's good.
Side note, but one of the things I really liked about the Truth In Numbers documentary was the face it gave to the Wikimedia movement. It was really lovely to see dozens (hundreds?) of people from around the world -- multiple ethnicities, accents, locations. I don't know how representative those people actually were/are of the general editor population, but seeing them was inspiring nonetheless.
Thanks, Sue
