Dear movement fellows,
Wikimedia France held its Annual General Meeting on October 11th, 2014.
During this AGM, we elected 6 board members, of which 4 are new.
Benjamin Smith and Rémi Mathis were not running for a new term. Wikimedia France board is thanking them a lot for their dedication, energy, thoughts, ideas and every single awesome thing they brought to the board during their terms: * Benjamin had been on the board for two years and a half, serving as deputy treasurer then secretary. Among other awesome things, he had been key in the recruitment process of our ED last year. * Rémi had been on the board since 2009, and serving as chair since 2011. He has been the public face of the chapter for many years − including our fundraising banners in 2011 and 2012. He was named Wikipedian of the Year by Jimmy Wales at Wikimania 2013 for reasons that shall not be named here.
Of course, considering their overall awesomeness, we are not letting them go anywhere ; they plan to remain active members of the chapter, and we as board look forward to continuing working with them.
Christophe Henner and Jean-Frédéric Berthelot were running again and were reelected. As a reminder:
* Christophe is 29, hardly needs introduction, currently lives in Aurillac where he is Head of Marketing for the biggest French video game website (top 3 in the World). He has been around in the movement forever, and at the board of Wikimédia France for seven years − serving as vice chair since 2012. His focus lies on the internal organisation and international affairs. You may refer to his Wikidata item [[Q18219536]] for more information.
*Jean-Frédéric is 27, a research engineer in Lille (North) currently relocating to London, UK. He is a dedicated Commonist, focusing on GLAM − especially upload of collections to Wikimedia Commons − and Wiki Loves Monuments. He has been serving as a board member since May 2012. His interests lie in quality management and impact evaluation, coopeating & sharing our awesomeness at the international level, and fostering Cuteness in the Wikimedia movement. In his free time he enjoys geocaching, curating commonscat.tumblr.comand baking pastries to his colleagues and chapter fellows.
Now, we would like you to welcome returning and new board members:
* Sébastien Beyou is 28 and is living in Rennes (Brittany), PhD in applied mathematics and now a self-employed Web developer. He edit(ed) French Wikipédia from 2005 to 2011, and is a member of Wikimédia France since 2007, mainly active in tech and communication topics. He was member of the Board from 2011 to 2012 and served as deputy treasurer; in particular he co-organised the Finance Meeting in February 2012, whose the discussion there contributed to the creation of the FDC. During his free time, he enjoys explaining Wikipedia to public and promoting (often surprising) physical-life-actions linked to Wikipedia.
* Pierre-Selim Huard is 31 and living in Toulouse. PhD in computer science with a background in aeronautics, he works as a R&D engineer in green aviation development. A rugby and photography lover, he is a dedicated Commonist and OTRS agent. He is active in programmatic actions such as Wiki Loves Monuments or local actions in Toulouse, and is thus one of the craftsmen of our long-standing project with the Museum de Toulouse; he also had been a board member of our organisation previously. As a board member, his main focus are documentation, quality and evaluation. You may have had the pleasure to meet him during one of the last three Wikimanias.
* Samuel Le Goff is 40 and living in Paris. He works as a journalist, former assistant of a MP for several years. His interests lie in relationship with French authorities, and contributions to public consultations, to expose Wikimédia positions in public debates in France and European Union.
* Benoît Prieur lives in Lyon where he is an engineer. He has a background in computer science and sociology. He is a regular contributor on supported projects and especially on Wikipedia (but not only!). He participates in events supported by Wikimedia France and particulary likes editathons.
Our board is now structured as follow: * Christophe Henner, Chair * Émeric Vallespi, Vice-chair * Guillaume Goursat, Treasurer * Sébastien Beyou, Deputy treasurer * Benoît Évellin, Secretary * Pierre-Selim Huard, Deputy secretary * Jean-Frédéric Berthelot, Board member * Alexis Marise Bique, Board member * Léa Lacroix, Board member * Samuel Le Goff, Board member * Ludovic Péron, Board member * Benoît Prieur, Board member
Please welcome these newcomers and do not hesitate to join us in expressing your gratitude to our former board members!
All the best, Benoît
Welcome, WMFR board members old and new!
I join the particular appreciation for Rémi's long service.
