Hi all
I'm putting together a grant outline for a team of Wikimedia people to work across the UN. I've written a two page(ish) outline, iI'd really appreciate it if you'd take the time to read it and let me know what you think.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/196vbC3mvMJa1JvrmSCf7h5JW7aYDj1WhOaYpyCPX...
Thanks very much
Looks great on first glance!
Clarity on WikiPedia/WikiMedia would help (WikiData, WikiSources and WikiCommons should get credit!) + dropping the competitive neo-liberal language and discourse would be nice whenever possible... (like “best practice” > known/field and recommended practices) ...especialy as that toxicity got us in the unsustainable present ;-)

Thanks
I've purposely called everything Wikipedia because of the audience for the overview (I'll separate these out in the actual full proposal)
If you could point out where I'm using this language and suggest alternatives that would be great, some of the language I've used is to cater to the audience I'm writing this for but good to use better language where I can

John, I’ll look over this in the course of the day and send some notes back soon.
Z, I hadn’t thought about the connotation of “Best Practices”. I realize I picked it up along the way working retail jobs (we don’t use the term in the library). I like recommended practices - nice. Thanks for that!

John, who do you envision sending this to, as that will determine how much more depth or specs is needed across the documents, along with the section headings that should be included.
Thank you.

Can this go in the agenda for the WREN meeting tomorrow?
Is this private? Can we discuss collectively any part of this?

Very happy to discuss tomorrow
So I've written this as a kind of vision statement for collaboration between UN+others and Wikimedia in the future. The audience for the doc is people working in the UN who may know of potential funders.
