Hello all,
Over the past few months the Design team members at the Wikimedia Foundation (user experience [UX] designers, design researchers, user experience engineers, and communications) have been working with Arthur Richards from the Team Practices Group to identify the high-level themes that motivate design at the WMF. These themes have been turned into a brief statement of purpose, whose intent is to articulate the vision and purpose behind design at the WMF. This statement will influence the future direction of design work.
At this point the stakeholders are ready for a review of the draft statement. The purpose of this review is to gather a common understanding of its purpose, and to identify any key themes that may be missing from the high-level discussion. On the wiki page for the statement, you'll find these themes and what they encompass in the "Background" section. If you have an observation, comment, or concern about what is listed there, please bring it up on the talk page. If it is relevant to the review and understanding of the statement, it will be looked at for future drafts. If there are comments about design and the design process in general, we'll hold on to those until a time when they can be addressed for the broader discussion of design in general.
All that said, here are the links: * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Design/Statement_of_purpose * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Design/Statement_of_purpose
We look forward to seeing you on the wiki.
Hi everyone, a friendly reminder that if you would like to share your perspective on the draft statement of purpose https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Design/Statement_of_purpose, please do so no later than this coming Sunday, 27 November, 2016.
Big thanks to everyone who has been a part of the discussion so far :)
