What matters is if the elected members are competent to do the task ahead, not where they live.

Well, congratulations to 4 people living in Western Europe. If this result doesn't get the Wikimedia Foundation to rethink their approach to how they select their board members, I don't know what will.

I guess it's up to communities, affiliates and regional structures to create the change we want to see, noe more than ever.

Hello all,

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2024 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election. 6000 community members from more than 180 wiki projects have voted.

The following four candidates were the most voted:

  • Christel Steigenberger
  • Maciej Artur Nadzikiewicz
  • Victoria Doronina
  • Lorenzo Losa

While these candidates have been ranked through the vote, they still need to be appointed to the Board of Trustees. They need to pass a successful background check and meet the qualifications outlined in the Bylaws. New trustees will be appointed at the next Board meeting in December 2024.

Best regards,

The Elections Committee and Board Selection Working Group
