So, rather than close the internal wiki, I'd like to propose a radical redesign and repurposing of it. Is there the interest and willingness in the WMF and the chapters to share such information with each other?
I'd argue against this. From the perspective of the Wikimedia Foundation, I would rather staff bias towards putting information on public wikis wherever possible, and I'd worry that staff energy going into updating a closed private wiki would by necessity pull focus from public work. I'd argue for closing both the internal wiki and the internal mailing list: IMO there's nothing on either that needs to be confidential.
Would you be willing to close down the WMF office wiki and list at the same time, then?
