Ciao,
I'm grateful for you to head it up. Wikiquote has unreasonably not
been recognized lately on Wikimania - weirdly it was not mentioned on
the program where all other Wikimedia projects was listed, despite
wikiquote.org was (and is too) the 3rd most visited domain among
Wikimedia domains.
Occasional responses to this kind of ignorance, either done by
intention or just by carelessness, are welcome and beneficial I
believe.
Salve,

Oggetto: Five-year WMF targets exclude non-Wikipedia projects

Despite repeated assurances at Wikimania, on lists and on strategywiki,
that the strategic plan was going to consider all Wikimedia projects as
important, now at
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Resolution:Five-year_targets the
second target, ≪Increase the amount of information we offer≫ considers
only the number of Wikipedia articles.
≪We're aware of the challenges around bot-created articles, articles of
low quality, etc., and the limited focus on Wikipedia, so this metric
shouldn't be seen in isolation, but is an important indicator.≫ Yes, but
a wrong one.
I'm, very, very disappointed: I have to conclude that all the words on
community participation etc. were only empty rhetoric.
Nemo
