Dear Wikimedians,


The program documentation of the Wikimedia Summit 2022 has been made 
available on Meta. The documentation consists of description and summary 
of each conference session and topics to follow up on.[1] Additionally, 
a summary has been translated into 6 languages by our colleagues from 
the Wikimedia Foundation.



https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Summit_2022/Documentation 




Beyond the documentation of the Summit’s content, we at Wikimedia 
Deutschland are working on publishing the evaluation of the feedback 
survey as well as an event report with knowledge learned from organizing 
Wikimedia’s first global hybrid conference. Organizing the Summit as a 
hybrid event has been an exciting, but also a challenging experience, 
and of course there’s much room for improvement. The report will be 
shared by the end of November via the usual channels.



After the Wikimedia Summit, a variety of opportunities are coming up to 
continue the conversations and engage in advancing implementation. It’s 
the Movement’s “conference season”, and Movement Strategy is a scheduled 
topic at several regional conferences in the upcoming weeks.



In the virtual space, the first round of conversations on the Movement 
Charter will take place in November. Based on the conversations at the 
Summit, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee will be collecting 
feedback on the first drafts of the Charter. More about all of that on 
Meta 
[2] 
and the Forum [3].



On behalf of the Wikimedia Summit team

[Offline-l] Fwd: Overlapping affiliate notification-Wikimedians of Nomads User Group

[Florence Devouard]

Hello everyone


Samuel and I have been contacted by the AffCom for feedback on a 
proposed new user group, which might overlap with Offline.


On the african mailing lists, the members presented the goals of that 
new usergroup, which are to


*introduce Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects in rural and remote areas 
using offline projects.*

If you have any feedback regarding this UG to provide to AffCom, please 
speak up now ;)

Otherwise, just consider it information/

Thanks

Florence

Dear Affiliate Representatives,

I'm writing on behalf of the Affiliations Committee to request your 
feedback on a proposed new user group.



As you probably know, Wikimedia user groups are intended to be simple 
and flexible affiliates that offer initial recognition for qualifying 
groups to be able to operate with a brand name and logo used for local 
projects and events.[1]  User groups may come and go or stay to thrive 
and grow as user groups, or sometimes develop into chapters or thematic 
organizations.



User groups do not have "ownership" or "exclusivity" of any territory, 
and we encourage many user groups to coexist within the same region. We 
aim to ensure peaceful coexistence by working with all new and existing 
groups to identify their planned activities and goals, connect on shared 
movement goals, and balance any potential overlaps with agreements for 
operating in shared spaces.



At this time, we are reaching out to let you know that there is a new 
group, Wikimedians of Nomads User Group[2], which has submitted an 
application for recognition as a Wikimedia User Group. We are requesting 
your feedback because these groups seem to be working in the same 
language and may have some of the same community or thematic spaces as 
you are.  We want to hear any observations, concerns, or other thoughts 
*within 15 days* that you might be able to offer regarding the groups 
and their work so that the committee can consider them as it reviews 
their application.

I think it would. IMO, we still lack a quality conversation between tech 
providers, integrators and end-users. Might be an opportunity here to 
help to fill the gap.

Would it be helpful to start a conversation with them and see if the
overlap would rather be resolved by them joining this UG?
