Hello,
The Movement Charter Drafting Committee has concluded its first community
review of the ratification methodology draft, which will be used to ratify
the Wikimedia Movement Charter in 2024.
This first community review included feedback collection on Meta*[1]*, on
the Movement Strategy forum*[2]* as well as two live conversation hours*[3]*
with communities, and one conversation with different Committees of the
Wikimedia projects. Documentation from the conversations can be found here
*[5]*: click on the 'expand' link to see all details. The Drafting Committee
greatly appreciates everyone's input!
A recording of the Committee's presentation[4] is uploaded to Commons, and the
pdf document with the presentation slides used is also available there.*[6]*
The WMF support team will produce a report on the community input in May
2023. The Drafting Committee will incorporate the feedback and share an
updated version of the ratification methodology in September-November 2023
*[7]*.
The Drafting Committee will continue conversations with stakeholders in the
meantime, regarding the ratification but also about the actual charter
content. Please keep an eye out for the updated versions of the first three
drafts on Meta, and expect us to share new Charter content with you around
the time of this years' Wikimania.
To stay up-to-date with the Movement Charter developments, sign up for our
monthly newsletter[8].
*On behalf of the MCDC,*
Best Regards,
Ciell
PS: It was brought to the committee's attention just recently that our
email address did not accept responses: this oversight has now been fixed.
