Hello again, NC Wikipedian colleagues!
In case folks didn't see the message Gaurav forwarded earlier this week, the annual
Wikimedia
Summit<https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wik…
is returning as an in-person event this September, in Berlin. As an affiliate, we are able
to send one representative to the Summit. Our standard rubric for choosing a
representative is to nominate and select the member who has done the most to advance the
work and interests of our user group in the previous year leading up to the summit.
Because the summit has been on a pandemic hold, I suggest that we consider the period
leading up to this year's summit (the period of consideration for our representative)
to be the past two+ years -- essentially the whole period of time since the last summit
was held.
Given that set of criteria, I nominate Danielle as our representative. Danielle kept this
group on track for a long period of time with her dedicated leadership, including
throughout the early, stressful, uncertain stretch of the pandemic. If anyone has
additional nominations, or would like to discuss the nomination criteria, please respond
to this message by midnight this Friday, April 8. If there are additional nominations or
folks would like to discuss, we can schedule a brief meeting to discuss in the next few
days. The deadline for our representative to complete the application is April 17, and
we'll need to have our rep selected in enough time to submit the paperwork. I would
like to have this settled by early next week.
Cheers,
Emily
