Thanks for this great plan of action or policy designed to achieve a major
or overall aim - regarding the sum of all knowledge. I enjoyed your podcast

in particular. (Seems like in the 'united states of whatebber' per your
Twitter photo, Nicole -
https://twitter.com/antischokke - that tactics, by
way of comparison, have been very significant thus far in the Wikimedia
movement).
(In that CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University & School donated itself
to Wikidata in 2015, and received WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki in 2017 as a
consequence, am curious if WUaS would be considered an affiliate per these
email addressees above, or what?)
I have questions relating mostly to "the sum of all knowledge" goal of
Wikipedia -
epistemology questions - How does or will Wikimedia / Wikipedia / Wikidata
approach academic knowledge, eg in the ~32 departments in MIT OCW, for
example, in particular, in this strategizing - and per information
technology as a new aspect of knowledge generation?
linguistic questions - How will Wikidata approach its ~300 languages in
becoming a platform for academic linguistic departments, and regarding the
sum of all knowledge (and eventually all 7,111 known living languages)? ...
and also regarding the Wikidata lexicographical project.
questions, brainstorming and knowledge-wise, about
'ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy' as a new social science and STEM method
... how could Wikipedians and others begin to develop this wiki project in
the Wikidata / Wikimedia ecosystem?
questions about planning for all 7.5 billion people in first 300 languages,
and then in all 7,111 known living languages, as Wikipedia wiki editors,
curators, knowledge generators? It seems that these potentially 7.5 billion
people on the planet earth are most remarkable as generators of "the sum of
knowledge." How is Wikipedia planning for all these 'knowledge generators'?
Thanks,
Scott

Hi everyone,
We’re in week 4 of community conversations about the movement strategy
recommendations. Thank you to everyone who has already taken part. The
community conversations will continue until Friday, February 21 - you
can get involved on Meta[1] in Arabic, English, French, German, Hindi,
Spanish, and Portuguese, strategize with your community or
organization, or send the core team your feedback to
strategy2030(a)wikimedia.org.
This current round of community conversations is the last opportunity
to suggest improvements to the recommendations. They will be finalized
before the end of March, and then published for the movement to
understand them, reflect on what they mean in their project, local, or
thematic context, and move into implementation.
== Movement feedback: what happens next ==
All feedback is being collected, reviewed and analyzed on an ongoing
basis. Here are the next steps after February 21:
* Week commencing February 24: the core team will summarize all the
feedback received in a report. You are welcome to continue commenting
and discussing during this time, but the discussions will not be as
closely facilitated and documented.
* Week commencing March 2: the core team will publish the above report
on Meta to give the movement an opportunity to review the content and
give feedback as to whether it accurately reflects their input. The
closing date for this is March 6. This summary report will then be
finalized and published.
In mid-March, the feedback from the Board of Trustees, movement
conversations and reviewers' input will be considered in the creation
of the final, improved set of recommendations. A rationale for things
that have not been considered will be provided, too. Our aim is to
have the recommendations finalized and published in late March. More
about the actual integration work coming soon.
== Video and podcast about our work; one-pager ==
Members of the core team - Tanveer Hasan, Information and Knowledge
Liaison, and Mehrdad Pourzaki, Information and Knowledge Manager -
recently held a presentation about all the recommendations at the
Wikimedia Foundation All Hands. They provide a quick, concise overview
of every recommendation and also some insight into how each was
developed. Video of the presentation [2] and the presentation slides
[3] are now on Commons.
Jan Ainali has interviewed me for his podcast Wikipedia Podden. I’m
speaking with him about the past, present and future of movement
strategy[4].
The one-pager created by Andrew Lih (User:Fuzheado) has been very
popular. Again, a big thank you to Andrew for putting this together.
In addition to Arabic, English, and Hindi versions, it is now also
available in Farsi [5, 6].
== Meeting notes from the office hours ==
We have published a condensed summary of the meeting notes [7] from
the office hours that were held by the core team on Thursday, January
30. The notes provide an overview of the key points and questions that
were raised during the two calls as well as summaries of the
responses.
== Do you have further questions? ==
Members of the core team will join the upcoming Wikimedia Café on
February 15 [8], which will focus on the movement strategy
recommendations. The Wikimedia Café is a community-led meeting hosted
by User:Pine and User:Bluerasberry, and we are happy to take part and
help answer any questions people may have about the recommendations.
Additionally, if you are looking for more information about any of the
above topics or about the movement strategy in general, take a look at
our FAQ section [9].
Happy weekend,
Nicole
