01 Feb '21

Dear all, The Board has discussed and approved some governance improvements in two recent meetings, on December 9 and January 8. As the governing body for the Wikimedia Foundation, we want to improve our capacity, performance, and representation of the movement’s diversity. We have amended the Bylaws in support of that goal. Please check the details in the announcement published on Meta-Wiki <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/Janu…> and on the Diff blog <https://diff.wikimedia.org/2021/01/21/approval-of-bylaws-amendments-and-upc…> . -- *Mehman Ibragimov* (him/his/they/their) User:Mehman (WMF) <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Mehman+(WMF)> Board Governance Facilitator Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/>

Invitation to affiliate members to complete a survey about WMF wide Universal Code of Conduct
by Mervat Salman 12 Aug '20

12 Aug '20

Hello; My name is Mervat, and I am helping the Trust and Safety team to reach out to affiliates in order to discuss the Universal Code of Conduct. There has been talks about the need for a global set of conduct rules in different communities over time, and finally, Wikimedia Foundation Board announced a Community Culture Statement, enacting new standards to address harassment and promote inclusivity across projects. Since the universal code of conduct that will be a binding minimum set of standards across all Wikimedia projects, will apply to all of us, staff and volunteers alike, all around the globe, and will impact our work as groups, individuals and projects, it’s of great importance that we all participate in expressing our opinions and thoughts about UCoC, its nature, what we think it should cover or include and what it shouldn’t include; how it may develop, drawback or help our groups. This is the time to talk about it. As you are a valuable contributor to the Wikimedia movement, your voice counts. Before starting to draft the code of conduct, we would like to hear from you; We invite you to devote some minutes to take this survey; your answers will help us create a safer environment for all on Wikimedia: (English): https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd36dNdU3C5shXEkKp9itJOhuCTx9hZE5A… <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd36dNdU3C5shXEkKp9itJOhuCTx9hZE5A…> It’s possible that you are a member of more than one affiliate; hence you may receive this survey more than once, and you may have participated previously in the discussions or filled out a previous survey during the first round of consultations about UCoC which targeted wikipedia/wikimedia communities. We apologize for this; it is really difficult to identify if a wikimedian belongs to multiple groups that work to spread free knowledge. Looking forward to your thoughts and opinions and hoping that you can respond within the next 2 weeks. If you have any questions about the surveys or difficulties accessing the link, please contact me by email ( msalman-ctr(a)wikimedia.org) Results will be considered during the drafting process for the UCoC Thank you for your participation Mervat Salman Trust & Safety (Policy) Facilitator Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/> "Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. That's our commitment."

Dear Wikimedia Community User Group Albania, We are inviting you to participate in Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos (WPWP) <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Pages_Wanting_Photos>, a new global contest scheduled to run from July through August 2020: <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Pages_Wanting_Photos> Participants will choose among Wikipedia pages without photo images, then add a suitable file from among the many thousands of photos in the Wikimedia Commons, especially those uploaded from thematic contests (Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Earth, Wiki Loves Folklore, etc.) over the years. WPWP offers a focused task for guiding new editors through the steps of adding content to existing pages. It can be used to organize editing workshops and edit-a-thons. The organizing team is looking for a contact person at the Wikimedia User Group level (geographically or thematically) or for a language WP, to coordinate the project locally. We’d be glad for you to reply to this email, or sign up directly at WPWP Participating Communities <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Pages_Wanting_Photos/Participatin…> Thank you, Deborah Schwartz Jacobs (User:Deborahjay / debjay.wpwp(a)gmail.com) Communities Liaison WPWP
