Hoi,
I mentioned three things ... When you are interested in if the Wikipedia gets mentioned in the news.. look at the BBC again and look at what it has to say. http://www.bbc.co.uk/search/news/?q=wikipedia I am not complaining.
I even go a step further, I mention the things that I think are positive regularly on my blog. If anything there is so much that people can do that will have a positive impact. At that I tend to move away from negative encounters. Typically they are not worth it. Thanks, GerardM

This is about Wikipedia Zero in particular, but what has been done by WMF's PR section about Wikipedia in general and its image with the general public?

Hoi,
Sadly there are some naysayers .... there are also people who see
things
improve.
Notable improvements happen here:
- visual editor
- wikipedia zero
- wikidata
In my opinion they have the potential to change our way of work and
our
reach.
Thanks, GerardM

This is a message to all Wikipedia and Wikimedia corporation
personnel,
Wikipedia is declining. We need to do something to rejuvenate our
project.
We need to remember our goal, to create a library of all human
knowledge
and progress. Peoples view of the project is negative. Wikipedia
has
become
the butt of many jokes. We need to refocus. We need to have a
massive
PR
maneuver to change the public view of us. We need to put aside
opinions,
beliefs, political, and language barriers and come together to
achieve
our
goal. This will lower vandalism.
