Hello Wikimedians!
As part of the roll out for community conversations [1] in our movement strategy [2], I am pleased to share with you that a team of Community Strategy Liaisons have been hired and begun their new role.
Community Strategy Liaisons [3] are part-time contractors who lead outreach and discussion about movement strategy among some of our largest language groups. Their time is spent connecting with Wikimedians on-wiki, in social media channels, over conference calls, and at in-person meetups to help explain the movement strategy process and to facilitate discussion on the content.
This role is in parallel to the volunteer Organizational Strategy Liaisons, which lead discussions within their organized groups and affiliates about movement strategy. You can find out more about these two groups on our meta page [4].
Each of the Community Strategy Liaisons dedicates the bulk of their contracted time to their dedicated language group. They have formal responsibilities related to reporting and discussion summaries, as well as communicating back to their language communities the results of their work.
Given the importance of having broad reach and support across the community, they will also provide some support to other language communities from their geographic region. We will also soon be inviting volunteers from language communities not represented by the team below to sign up as Strategy Liaisons for their projects.
With this in mind, here is the team!
-
Anass Sedrati [5] is our Strategy Liaison for Arabic. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Arabic speaking language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. He will also support outreach to the Swedish, Berber, and Kurdish language communities, as well as with the French community until an official Strategy Liaison is hired for this role.
-
Rupika Sharma [6] is our Strategy Liaison for Hindi. Her primary responsibilities are to engage the Hindi speaking language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. She will also support outreach to other Indic language communities active on Wikimedia.
-
Gereon Kalkuhl [7] is our Strategy Liaison for German. His primary responsibilities are to engage the German speaking language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. He will also support outreach to the Dutch language community.
-
Liang-chih Shang-Kuan [8] is our Strategy Liaison for Mandarin. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Mandarin speaking language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. He will also support outreach to other language communities active in east Asia, southeast Asia, and the broader pacific region.
-
Lucas Teles [9] is our Strategy Liaison for Portuguese. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Portuguese language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy.
-
Francesc Fort [10] is our Strategy Liaison for Spanish. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Spanish language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. He will also support outreach to other language communities that predominate within Spain as well as to the Italian community.
As a final note, we are still looking to hire candidates in French, Farsi, and Russian, though other candidates may join the team for additional languages. You can find out about the latest composition of the team on meta and connect with the contractor for your language at any time on their talk pages.
Community conversations are your chance to make your voice heard on movement strategy. Thank you for joining us!
Best,
Kelsi

Thanks for that announcement. An obvious question -- why did you not appoint a Community Strategy Liaison for the English language community?

Paulo,
Given that the ages you refer to are for the community to feed back to the various working groups, any lack of activity there can best be described as the discussions being abandoned by the community. That's not too surprising, since very few members of the community have the time, energy, experience or expertise to take part in this sort of discussion at this level of granularity. It might have been better to formulate a few "grand challenge" type questions but at this level of detail it seems both necessary and desirable for the community to leave the decision-making to the Foundation -- they have a full-time, paid, expert staff to do this sort of thing, as we're hearing in the message that started this very thread.

support outreach to other language communities that predominate within Spain as well as to the Italian community.
As a final note, we are still looking to hire candidates in French,
Farsi,
and Russian, though other candidates may join the team for additional languages. You can find out about the latest composition of the team on meta and connect with the contractor for your language at any time on
their
talk pages.
Community conversations are your chance to make your voice heard on movement strategy. Thank you for joining us!
Best,
Kelsi

Any discussion presumes two parts, so if WGs are nor expected to participate there, there is not any expectation of discussion with the community from the start. The message that is passing there is that the WGs have not the elast interest in whatever is taking place there. They placed the stuff there because it's part of a strategy roadmap or something like that.
I wonder when those WGs will interact with the Wikimedian online communities, or if they will interact at all.

Paulo,
Given that the ages you refer to are for the community to feed back to the various working groups, any lack of activity there can best be described as the discussions being abandoned by the community. That's not too surprising, since very few members of the community have the time, energy, experience or expertise to take part in this sort of discussion at this level of granularity. It might have been better to formulate a few "grand challenge" type questions but at this level of detail it seems both necessary and desirable for the community to leave the decision-making to the Foundation -- they have a full-time, paid, expert staff to do this sort of thing, as we're hearing in the message that started this very thread.

Wasn't it supposed to exist some interaction over there? Who is the community talking to?

Hello Wikimedians!
As part of the roll out for community conversations [1] in our movement strategy [2], I am pleased to share with you that a team of Community Strategy Liaisons have been hired and begun their new role.
Community Strategy Liaisons [3] are part-time contractors who lead
outreach
and discussion about movement strategy among some of our largest
language
groups. Their time is spent connecting with Wikimedians on-wiki, in
social
media channels, over conference calls, and at in-person meetups to help explain the movement strategy process and to facilitate discussion on
the
content.
This role is in parallel to the volunteer Organizational Strategy
Liaisons,
which lead discussions within their organized groups and affiliates
about
movement strategy. You can find out more about these two groups on our
meta
page [4].
Each of the Community Strategy Liaisons dedicates the bulk of their contracted time to their dedicated language group. They have formal responsibilities related to reporting and discussion summaries, as well
as
communicating back to their language communities the results of their
work.
Given the importance of having broad reach and support across the community, they will also provide some support to other language communities from their geographic region. We will also soon be inviting volunteers from language communities not represented by the team below
to
sign up as Strategy Liaisons for their projects.
With this in mind, here is the team!
Anass Sedrati [5] is our Strategy Liaison for Arabic. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Arabic speaking language
community
across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy.
He
will also support outreach to the Swedish, Berber, and Kurdish language communities, as well as with the French community until an official Strategy Liaison is hired for this role.
Rupika Sharma [6] is our Strategy Liaison for Hindi. Her primary responsibilities are to engage the Hindi speaking language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. She will also support outreach to other Indic language communities active on Wikimedia.
Gereon Kalkuhl [7] is our Strategy Liaison for German. His primary responsibilities are to engage the German speaking language
community
across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy.
He
will also support outreach to the Dutch language community.
Liang-chih Shang-Kuan [8] is our Strategy Liaison for Mandarin. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Mandarin speaking
language
community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. He will also support outreach to other language
communities
active in east Asia, southeast Asia, and the broader pacific region.
Lucas Teles [9] is our Strategy Liaison for Portuguese. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Portuguese language community
across
Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy.
Francesc Fort [10] is our Strategy Liaison for Spanish. His primary responsibilities are to engage the Spanish language community across Wikimedia projects in discussions around movement strategy. He will
also
support outreach to other language communities that predominate
within
Spain as well as to the Italian community.
As a final note, we are still looking to hire candidates in French,
Farsi,
and Russian, though other candidates may join the team for additional languages. You can find out about the latest composition of the team on meta and connect with the contractor for your language at any time on
their
talk pages.
Community conversations are your chance to make your voice heard on movement strategy. Thank you for joining us!
