Patrick,
Thank you for posting this.I am really hoping a lot of people will participate. Anti-harassment and child protection is something that we took on only about a year ago and I am very grateful to see the team pushing ahead with this. Your work on this is one of the most important new initiatives to support more inclusive, diverse and gender-balanced communities.
Since this is ongoing, it would be great if you could share what we are hoping will be the result of this phase and what is upcoming.
What are we doing for outreach, especially to female Wikimedians?

Thanks Lodewijk. We didn't mean "ideas" to limit contributions to full proposals or solutions. It could just be "Random thoughts from Lodewijk" - it's meant to be very open. You can also start a conversation about another idea by clicking on it to find its discussion, or take part in an ongoing one. I'll talk to my team to see if we can improve the language to make it clear all levels of participation are welcome.
Best,

Thanks for addressing the theme. While looking at the page, I'm having a hard time getting my head around it though. You seem to ask for
'thoughts'
on a number of issues, but then you only allow a field for 'ideas' (which sounds like 'solutions' to me). Maybe this is a language issue, but would there be a lower threshold pathway to contribute to the conversation than putting an 'idea' out there which suggests that it is good all by itself?
I hope you can clarify the page a bit. But then, maybe it's just me.
Best, Lodewijk

Hello all,
Community Advocacy at the WMF is running a month-long discussion on
the
topic of harassment on our projects. This will be the first in a
series
as it is the initial discussion, we are keeping it open and broad to encourage brainstorming and creativity.
It is currently live on Meta, and will be open until at least Dec.
16:
We encourage all to participate, share ideas, and provide feedback on
the
ideas of others. Online harassment is a complex, pervasive issue,
and
we
can't make progress without exploring the best ways forward.
Thanks,
