Dear all I hope you are keeping well during these strange, and seemingly interminable times...
As I'm sure some of you will have already seen, the Wikimedia Foundation has published a call for feedback about the process for promoting and choosing community candidates for their board of trustees: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_of_Trustees/Call_for_feedback:_Community_Board_seats There are several ways to participate in the call, as follows: - Discuss in the Talk page for each idea, or in this talk page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_of_Trustees/Call_for_feedback:_Community_Board_seats> for general comments - Discuss in the Telegram group chat <https://t.me/wmboardgovernancechat> created for this call for feedback - Join a conversation or an online meeting <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_of_Trustees/Call_for_feedback:_Community_Board_seats/Conversations> near you I'm emailing you all firstly to make sure that you are all aware of the call for feedback, but secondly to gauge the level of interest in organising an online call about this, either at a UK or English Wikipedia level (or indeed, for another relevant community). If you would personally be interested in attending such a meeting, please do let me know. Otherwise, I would encourage those of you with ideas about this to contribute to one of the channels outlined above.
