Well, despite my best efforts, the discussion has been redirected back to < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_budget#2012-13%3E
In other words, it is now on the bottom of a discussion page that has not been touched in 3 years simply because it says something about the WMF budget. I'm sorry, but whenever we're having a discussion about $46 million, I think it deserves its own page. Not to mention the fact that this annual plan (which is a bit different than a budget) isn't even in the same league as the ones from 2004-2009. Nothing on the actual Wikimedia budget page[1] is up to date, and it doesn't even include the links that Tilman started this thread with. Perhaps a bit more budget in the area of community engagement is called for here.

Just as an FYI for all, this page has now been unprotected, it appears that it was protected a long time ago (before we had page protection logs), so feel free to update the page (yes it's a bit of a mess at the moment). Perhaps we should move all the old budget information to /Archive or at least collapse it so that only the most relevant information is one there if we are going to be using it to discuss this plan?
