Hello Everyone!


The deadline for voting on the ratification of the Movement Charter is approaching next week.  Deadline is July 9. 

  • All eligible Wikimedians may vote as individuals (check here to determine eligibility).

  • All affiliates in good standing may also cast one vote for the affiliate. As the designated affiliate voter for WMNYC (User: Windblown29), I have set up additional info and links for you to explore below.

At our WikiWednesday meeting last week, we discussed the charter, the voting process and shared initial comments about our affiliate vote. We want to continue hearing from you, throughout this weekend, and hopefully by Monday July 8, so that we will have time to compile comments and suggestions before the deadline.


You may find supplemental information on the Charter, as well as the full text here: Movement Charter

To add a comment/suggestion for our collective affiliate vote, please comment on our talk page. You may also share on our Discord Channel.


We encourage you to vote both as an individual and share with us your comments regarding our affiliate vote.


Our President, Richard Knipel (User: Pharos) is and has been a member of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee, and is able to answer any specific questions you may have regarding the Charter text.


Please take a look at the Charter and supplemental materials and let us know your opinion and how you feel WMNYC affiliate should vote.


Thank you!

Best, 

Rajene Hardeman (User: Windblown29)

Strategy Officer, WMNYC
