Re: [Wikimedia-l] [Design] 'Design team' in Wikimedia contexts

the more you mess around with name changes the harder it becomes for the
community to follow who is doing what and why.  Thats just for those of us
who are english speakers I would hate be someone who doesnt speak english
trying  to follow the changes

Hi, this is a very interesting conversation, and I hope the most
informative bits are reflected in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Design

By the way, we are discussing the use of the term "Design" in the WMF
product development process, as a stage involving not only visual/UX design
but also architecture, performance, operations... Your feedback is welcomed.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Advertising in Central Notice

2015-11-11 Thread Itzik - Wikimedia Israel
Hi Michelle,

Thank you for the respond. We I and few others wrote on Meta - this
link problematic - and it's new, although the using of Qualtrics is not.

Better option is to include the link to their privacy page from the landing
page itself, before the survey or at the bottom.

Another option could be to link to a Wiki page - with a
short explanation about the issue with handling such a survey with a 3rd
party, and linking to the survey and the privacy.

Just linking directly from a banner to their website (where they are also
tracking users via Facebook and Google pixels), is kind of advertising from
my point of view.

[Wikimedia-l] Recognition of Wikimujeres Grupo de Usuarias

2015-11-11 Thread Carlos M. Colina

Dear all,

I am honoured to announce on behalf of the Affiliations Committee, the 
recognition of Wikimujeres [1] as a Wikimedia User Group.


The focus of Wikimujeres is supporting efforts to increase content and 
contributor diversity across the different Wikimedia projects, 
especially on those in Spanish. Apart from this and among other 
interests, are organizing offline activities such as meetups and events 
about gender diversity.


¡Bienvenidas!
