Just a reminder that we'll meet next Tuesday evening at 7pm to discuss whether we'll vote to support the movement charter draft. (And discuss a possible summer event.)
Morgan, thanks so much for sharing this tool! I think this will be useful for our discussion.
See y'all next week! Emily

Hi NC Wiki folks, The Wikimedia Summit Organising Team sent this message to Summit participants. They've created a tool for evaluating the Final Charter draft, in relation to the revision requests that were drafted by affiliates during the summit.
Just sharing this in case it's helpful for folks to get a sense of what other affiliates' priorities were. I'm also keeping an eye out in case there's more discussion among participants about the Final Movement Charter .

*Subject:* Fwd: Wikimedia Summit Statements: Final Movement Charter scoring
Dear Wikimedia Summit participants,
The MCDC has recently published the final movement charter in English: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_Charter
At the Wikimedia Summit, after three days of deliberation, you as participants came up with a series of statements that the groups deemed important to be included in the charter. Even though some of these “dealbreaker” statements were drafted under extreme time constraints, all of them received a majority support by Affiliates and Hub representatives at the closing session.
We developed a simple tool to compare the final charter against the Summit statements: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Dg6T7bH47mLIeS320YxU20RzBUmAkfHKK0ot...
How to use the tool: This table lists all the “dealbreaker” statements, weighs them by the support they got at the summit and calculates a total score. The weighing is based on # of people who voted “support” subtracting # of people who voted “oppose”, multiplied by the number of people who responded (as in, did not abstain). Simply enter “yes” or “no” in the Final Charter column, based on your own assessment of the charter content.
Of course, you can adjust it with your weighing method, based on the preferences of your organization. Alternatively, you could just pick the statements that are important to your affiliate or hub, and create a score based on those only.
The ratification will run from 25 June - 9 July. We hope many of you will take part in it!
