Hi
What I mean is that people belong to different user groups or affiliates, 
giving them the opportunity to influence the process (if it's open) in various 
ways.  

It's even worse when there is no public discussion, as this means the people 
casting the vote (as representative) have a significant personal influence. 
This is actually true also for "big" affiliates where standard members are not 
informed at all of the voting process.

 I don't think this is functional. I was part of a committee for an 
affiliate-based vote years ago, and I can see that these issues still haven't 
been properly addressed, though they should be. If you check the old emails, 
you'll see that I've regularly pointed this out.

So my contribution of this aspect is to regularly leave a formal note about 
that somewhere in the paperwork. I think it's more useful overall than casting 
an additional vote.

 Hi Alessandro,
what exactly do you mean by "More importantly, the issue of individuals 
influencing multiple votes due to involvement in different affiliates is a 
significant concern. Once clear and established guidelines are provided on this 
matter, I see no issue with increasing such participation." - where are people 
voting multiple times in WMF consultation processes and which kind of 
guidelines do you expect to appear?
Best regards, Philip
