Dear Ydedz9czpis1ldj7ย :)

Wikidata's Twelfth birthday datathon

I'm excited to announce that Wikidata:WikiProject India and various communities across India are planning to celebrate Wikidata's 12th birthday with a special Wikidata Data-thon during the months of October-November 2024. This campaign will focus on improving the quality of content on Wikidata, with a special emphasis on India-related properties and items. Additionally this data-thon also aims to enhance Wikidata items by improving labels and descriptions in the native language, along with the addition of references, qualifiers, and statements contributing to the improvement of structured data in Wikidata.

As part of this celebration, I would like to invite all interested community members and User Groups to join us in this collaborative effort to celebrate this milestone by making Wikidata even better. Please have a look at the event page.

How to Participate:

  • Sign up as a participant: If you want to contribute to the data-thon by editing and improving India-related content on Wikidata, please add your name to the participants list here.
  • Organize a Data-thon: If you're part of a User Group or community that would like to take the lead in organizing the event, please sign up here to help organize the activities.

[WMF Board of Trustees - Call for feedback: Community Board seats] Meetings with the Wikidata community

1
MediaWiki message delivery (talkcontribs)

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees is organizing a call for feedback about community selection processes between February 1 and March 14. While the Wikimedia Foundation and the movement have grown about five times in the past ten years, the Boardโ€™s structure and processes have remained basically the same. As the Board is designed today, we have a problem of capacity, performance, and lack of representation of the movementโ€™s diversity. Our current processes to select individual volunteer and affiliate seats have some limitations. Direct elections tend to favor candidates from the leading language communities, regardless of how relevant their skills and experience might be in serving as a Board member, or contributing to the ability of the Board to perform its specific responsibilities. It is also a fact that the current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Western Europe. In the upcoming months, we need to renew three community seats and appoint three more community members in the new seats. This call for feedback is to see what processes can we all collaboratively design to promote and choose candidates that represent our movement and are prepared with the experience, skills, and insight to perform as trustees?

In this regard, two rounds of feedback meetings are being hosted to collect feedback from the Wikidata community. Two rounds are being hosted with the same agenda, to accomodate people from various time zones across the globe. We will be discussing ideas proposed by the Board and the community to address the above mentioned problems. Please sign-up according to whatever is most comfortable to you. You are welcome to participate in both as well!

Also, please share this with other volunteers who might be interested in this. Let me know if you have any questions. KCVelaga (WMF), 14:33, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
