I am optimistic that this strategic direction provides every individual and entity within the Wikimedia movement something to be excited about.
Hello, it is not about what I might be excited about - I wonder in which ways the document will be used in a way I find problematic for the community.
I am still curious about the links in the "See also" section:
- Appendix https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017/Direction/Appendix: More information about the process, research, and findings that led to this outcome. - A report of findings https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017/Findings is being written and many references on this page will be updated to point to its content.
Are those (and the footnotes) part of the "direction" document? Will people who endorse the document also endorse them?
Kind regards,
Ziko
Beginning on October 26, we will be asking for individual contributors and organized groups to endorse this new strategic direction for our movement. I encourage you to spend the intervening days discussing this direction and determining if you and/or your group will be endorsing it. You will find more information about the endorsement day and the process on the direction’s meta page next week.
The endorsement concludes phase 1 of the process, and we are currently drafting the next steps of the process. The main goal of phase 2 will be to answer the question "How do we implement the strategic direction", which means identifying the resources needed for execution, and the activities it involves. A first rough overview of this phase is being developed on Meta. Take a look! [2]
On a different note, we have completed the move into our new office space at One Montgomery Tower![3] Once again, thank you to everyone on staff who was involved in making the move so seamless, and to all of you for your patience over the past couple of weeks. Later this month, once we are more settled in, we will be sharing photos and information about our new space on the Wikimedia Blog.
Stay tuned!
መልካም ቀን። (Amharic translation: “Have a nice day”),
