Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] Volunteer for CIS's A2K programme director
recruitment committee
To: Wikimedia India Community list <wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Cc: wikimedia-in-exec(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Dear Wikimedians,
I would like to request members of the Indian Wikipedia community to
nominate themselves to serve on the CIS's A2K Programme Director
recruitment committee. This programme will hopefully receive large
grant from Wikimedia Foundation and we would greatly benefit from
community input during the hiring process of the new Programme
Director.
The volunteer must be experienced Wikipedian, based in India [ as we
cannot afford international travel for the interviews] and must have
sufficient managerial experience [including experience with conducting
interviews]. The volunteer should be able to spare time in September
to review applications remotely and also conduct face-to-face
interviews for 2 days either in Bangalore or Delhi.
Those who fit the description are requested to nominate yourself by
sending me an email with a profile and relevant URLs before COB 25th
August 2012.
I will publish a long list on cis-india.org on 29th August, after
removing those nominations that don't have the required
qualifications. The volunteer to serve on the recruitment committee
will be selected from the long list by using IETF's Publicly
Verifiable Nominations Committee (NomCom) Random Selection[1].
The other members of this recruitment committee will consist of
1. One of the existing independent consultants [Hisham, Nitika,
Noopur, Shiju or Subha]
2. One member from the Wikipedia Chapter (Wikimedia India Program
Trust) community. To be nominated by the Chapter Executive Committee.
3. Executive Director of CIS - me.
The recruitment committee will be responsible for screening the long
list of eligible applications and conducting one-on-one face-to-face
interviews with the short list of applicants.
Best wishes,
Sunil
[1] http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3797.txt The random seeds will be the
30 August 2012 result for the following national lotteries - Australia
(http://www.lotto.com.au/), UK (http://www.national-lottery.co.uk) and
USA (http://www.powerball.com or http://www.usamega.com)

Hello Wikimedians,
Hope this email will find you well.
We are happy to announce a new project of
C
IS-A2K called "Support an Admin". Admins play very important role in a
community, and very often, in addition to general editing work, they have
to do a lot of administrative works as well. In "Support an admin" project
we'll support an admin from a community by providing their internet bill
amount or giving library membership fees etc.
Points to note
a) This is the first step of the project, and we'll be working with a very
limited number of communities and projects at this moment. This project
won't support any focused language area as of now.
It won't provide infrastructural requirement.
b) Initially we are reaching out to these projects (in alphabetical order):
Bengali Wikisource, Hindi Wikipedia, Sanskrit Wikisource, and Urdu
Wikipedia.
c) We'll provide support to one Wikimedian per project mentioned above.
d) The service will be continued till 30 June 2018, as of now.
e) Support will be given for 3 months to an admin, after that the service
may be given to some other admin of the project.
f) The recipients should be based in India.
g) The community will decide the recipient following a public discussion.
If you are interested, please let us know. We'll go to the next step and
will let you know more details about the process and requirements.
Thanks and regards,
Tito Dutta
