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/196vbC3mvMJa1JvrmSCf7h5JW7aYDj1WhOaYpyCP… Thanks very much _______________________________________________ Wren mailing list Wren(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wren

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!

Can this go in the agenda for the WREN meeting tomorrow? Is this private? Can we discuss collectively any part of this? On Tue, Jul 7, 2020 at 10:15 AM Jeffrey Keefer <FULBERT(a)fulbert.org> wrote:

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.

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. Best On Tue, 7 Jul 2020 at 17:19, Lane Rasberry <lanerasberry(a)gmail.com> wrote:
