-------- Messaggio Originale -------- Oggetto: Five-year WMF targets exclude non-Wikipedia projects Data: Sun, 10 Oct 2010 12:33:07 +0200 Da: Federico Leva (Nemo) A: Wikimedia Foundation Mailing List foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org

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.
