Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees 2024 Selection

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Dear all,

This year, the term of 4 (four) Community- and Affiliate-selected Trustees on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees will come to an end [1]. The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats.

The Elections Committee will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Board Governance Committee created a Board Selection Working Group from Trustees who cannot be candidates in the 2024 community- and affiliate-selected trustee selection process composed of Dariusz Jemielniak, Nataliia Tymkiv, Esra'a Al Shafei, Kathy Collins, and Shani Evenstein Sigalov [3]. The group is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2024 trustee selection process, and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4].

Here are the key planned dates:

• May 2024: Call for candidates and call for questions
• June 2024: Affiliates vote to shortlist 12 candidates (no shortlisting if 15 or less candidates apply) [5]
• June-August 2024: Campaign period
• End of August / beginning of September 2024: Two-week community voting period
• October–November 2024: Background check of selected candidates
• Board's Meeting in December 2024: New trustees seated

Learn more about the 2024 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on this Meta-wiki page, and make your plan.

Election Volunteers

Another way to be involved with the 2024 selection process is to be an Election Volunteer. Election Volunteers are a bridge between the Elections Committee and their respective community. They help ensure their community is represented and mobilize them to vote. Learn more about the program and how to join on this Meta-wiki page.

Best regards,

Dariusz Jemielniak (Governance Committee Chair, Board Selection Working Group)

[5] Even though the ideal number is 12 candidates for 4 open seats, the shortlisting process will be triggered if there are more than 15 candidates because the 1-3 candidates that are removed might feel ostracized and it would be a lot of work for affiliates to carry out the shortlisting process to only eliminate 1-3 candidates from the candidate list.

Ang iyong wiki ay magiging hanggang-basa sa ilang mga saglit

Basahin ang mensaheng ito sa ibang wika • Please help translate to your language

Ililipat ng Wikimedia Foundation ang trapik sa pagitan ng kanilang mga data centers. Sisiguraduhin nito na mananatiling online ang Wikipedia at ang mga iba pang wiki ng Wikimedia kahit pagkatapos ng isang sakuna.

Ililipat ang lahat ng trapiko sa 20 Marso. Magsisimula ang pagsubok sa 14:00 UTC.

Sa kasamaang palad, dahil sa mga limitasyon sa MediaWiki, ang lahat ng pagbabago ay dapat ihinto habang ginagawa ang paglilipat. Humihingi kami ng paumanhin para sa pagkagambalang ito, at sinisikap naming mabawasan ito sa hinaharap.

Makababasa ka, nguni hindi makakapagbago, ng lahat ng mga wiki sa loob lamang ng maikling panahon.

• Hindi ka makakapagbago ng hanggang sa isang oras sa Miyerkules 20 Marso 2024.
• Kung susubukin mong magbago o maglagak sa mga oras na ito, makakikita ka ng mensahe ng kamalian. Inaasahan namin na walang mawawala na pagbabago sa mga minutong ito, ngunit hindi namin ito maipapangako. Kung nakikita mo ang mensahe ng kamalian, mangyaring maghintay hanggang bumalik sa normal na ang lahat. Pagkatapos niyon ay maaari mo nang mai-save ang iyong edit. Pero, amin namin kayong pinapayuhan na gumawa muna ng kopya ng iyong mga pagbabago, upang makasigurado.

Mga ibang epekto:

• Babagal ang mga background job at maaaring tanggalin ang ilan. Maaaring hindi maisasapanahon ang mga pulang kawing ng kasimbilis ng normal. Kung maglilikha ka ng artikulo na nakakawing na sa ibang lugar, mas matagal na mananatiling pula ang kawing. Kailangang pahintuin ang mga ilang pangmatagalang iskrip.
• Inaasahan namin na ang mga code deployment ay mangyayari katulad ng sa anumang ibang mga linggo. Pero, may mga case-by-case code freezes na mangyayari sa tamang panahon kung kakailanganin nila ito pagkatapos.
• Hindi magagamit ang GitLab ng mga nasa 90 minutos.

Maaaring ipagpaliban ang proyektong ito kung kinakailangan. Maaari mong basahin ang iskedyul sa wikitech.wikimedia.org. Ihahayag ang anumang pagbabago sa iskedyul. Magkakaroon pa ng mga abiso tungkol dito. May ipapakitang bandera sa lahat ng mga wiki 30 minutos bago magsimula ang operasyong ito. Mangyaring ibahagi ang impormasyon sa iyong pamayanan.

Invitation to participate in the #WPWPCampaign 2024

Dear community members,

We are inviting you to participate in the Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos 2024 campaign, a global contest scheduled to run from July through August 2024:

Participants will choose among Wikipedia pages without photo images, then add a suitable file from among the many thousands of photos in the Wikimedia Commons, especially those uploaded from thematic contests (Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Earth, Wiki Loves Folklore, etc.) over the years.

In its first year (2020), 36 Wikimedia communities in 27 countries joined the campaign. Events relating to the campaign included training organized by at least 18 Wikimedia communities in 14 countries.

The campaign resulted in the addition of media files (photos, audios and videos) to more than 90,000 Wikipedia articles in 272 languages.

Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos (WPWP) offers an ideal task for recruiting and guiding new editors through the steps of adding content to existing pages. Besides individual participation, the WPWP campaign can be used by user groups and chapters to organize editing workshops and edit-a-thons.

The organizing team is looking for a contact person to coordinate WPWP participation your language Wikipedia. We’d be glad for you to sign up directly at WPWP Participating Communities page on Meta-Wiki.

As communicated by the Charter Electoral Commission, we reached the quorum for both Affiliate and individual votes by the time the vote closed on July 9, 23:59 UTC. We thank all 2,451 individuals and 129 Affiliate representatives who voted in the ratification process. Your votes and comments are invaluable for the future steps in Movement Strategy.

The final results of the Wikimedia Movement Charter ratification voting held between 25 June and 9 July 2024 are as follows:

Individual vote:

Because the neutral votes don’t count towards the total number of votes cast, 73.30% voted to approve the Charter (1710/2333), while 26.70% voted to reject the Charter (623/2333).

Affiliates vote:

Out of 129 Affiliates designated voters who voted as of July 9 23:59 (UTC), 129 votes are confirmed as valid votes. Among these, 93 voted “yes”; 18 voted “no”; and 18 selected “–” (neutral). Because the neutral votes don’t count towards the total number of votes cast, 83.78% voted to approve the Charter (93/111), while 16.22% voted to reject the Charter (18/111).

Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation:

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees voted not to ratify the proposed Charter during their special Board meeting on July 8, 2024. The Chair of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, Nataliia Tymkiv, shared the result of the vote, the resolution, meeting minutes and proposed next steps.  

With this, the Wikimedia Movement Charter in its current revision is not ratified.

We thank you for your participation in this important moment in our movement’s governance.

Coming soon: A new sub-referencing feature – try it!

Hello. For many years, community members have requested an easy way to re-use references with different details. Now, a MediaWiki solution is coming: The new sub-referencing feature will work for wikitext and Visual Editor and will enhance the existing reference system. You can continue to use different ways of referencing, but you will probably encounter sub-references in articles written by other users. More information on the project page.

We want your feedback to make sure this feature works well for you:

• Please try the current state of development on beta wiki and let us know what you think.
• Sign up here to get updates and/or invites to participate in user research activities.

Wikimedia Deutschland’s Technical Wishes team is planning to bring this feature to Wikimedia wikis later this year. We will reach out to creators/maintainers of tools and templates related to references beforehand.

Please help us spread the message. --Johannes Richter (WMDE) (talk) 10:36, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Inaasahan namin na walang mawawala na pagbabago sa mga minutong ito, ngunit hindi namin ito maipapangako. Kung nakikita mo ang mensahe ng kamalian, mangyaring maghintay hanggang bumalik sa normal na ang lahat. Pagkatapos niyon ay maaari mo nang mai-save ang iyong edit. Pero, amin namin kayong pinapayuhan na gumawa muna ng kopya ng iyong mga pagbabago, upang makasigurado.

Mga ibang epekto:

• Babagal ang mga background job at maaaring tanggalin ang ilan. Maaaring hindi maisasapanahon ang mga pulang kawing ng kasimbilis ng normal. Kung maglilikha ka ng artikulo na nakakawing na sa ibang lugar, mas matagal na mananatiling pula ang kawing. Kailangang pahintuin ang mga ilang pangmatagalang iskrip.
• Inaasahan namin na ang mga code deployment ay mangyayari katulad ng sa anumang ibang mga linggo. Pero, may mga case-by-case code freezes na mangyayari sa tamang panahon kung kakailanganin nila ito pagkatapos.
• Hindi magagamit ang GitLab ng mga nasa 90 minutos.

Maaaring ipagpaliban ang proyektong ito kung kinakailangan. Maaari mong basahin ang iskedyul sa wikitech.wikimedia.org. Ihahayag ang anumang pagbabago sa iskedyul.

Mangyaring ibahagi ang impormasyon sa iyong pamayanan.

Preliminary results of the 2024 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees elections

Hello all,

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2024 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election. Close to 6000 community members from more than 180 wiki projects have voted.

The following four candidates were the most voted:

1. Christel Steigenberger
2. Maciej Artur Nadzikiewicz
3. Victoria Doronina
4. Lorenzo Losa

While these candidates have been ranked through the vote, they still need to be appointed to the Board of Trustees. They need to pass a successful background check and meet the qualifications outlined in the Bylaws. New trustees will be appointed at the next Board meeting in December 2024.

Learn more about the results on Meta-Wiki.

Best regards,

The Elections Committee and Board Selection Working Group

'Wikidata item' link is moving, finally.

Hello everyone, I previously wrote on the 27th September to advise that the Wikidata item sitelink will change places in the sidebar menu, moving from the General section into the In Other Projects section. The scheduled rollout date of 04.10.2024 was delayed due to a necessary request for Mobile/MinervaNeue skin. I am happy to inform that the global rollout can now proceed and will occur later today, 22.10.2024 at 15:00 UTC-2. Please let us know if you notice any problems or bugs after this change. There should be no need for null-edits or purging cache for the changes to occur. Kind regards, -Danny Benjafield (WMDE) 11:29, 22 Oktubre 2024 (UTC)
