requirements to be a chapter in the bylaws:
- support the mission of the wmf
- be a membership organization, i.e. the highest body is the assembly of members
- be a member must be possible for everybody who contributes (i.e. edits, writes software used by wmf projects) at zero cost (or low cost, e.g. price of one meal?)
- meet the tax exemption criteria. justification needed if not possible, reviewed regularly.
- an audit committee, consisting of members, who are also allowed to seek professional help
Considering that 4 of your 5 proposed requirements don't make sense to me, I question the ability of your proposal to reach the declared goal.
