The problem of that page's wording being rather vague and unclear about 
what, exactly, you'd unsubscribe from is a genuine issue that needs 
fixin' (that is, while what the intent is would be clear to technically

That said, I'm pretty sure absolutely nobody sane believes Jimmy

I like the name, WikiConvention. Still not happy about "Wikimania" since
"mania" is a serious medical issue (for those with bipolar affective
disorder).

Re: [Wikimedia-l] FW: My final email

[Peter Southwood]

Thank you Caitlin, that actually addresses the problem, and I think that will 
be a significant improvement. It would also be nice if I didn’t have to opt out 
of something I don’t think I ever opted into. 
Cheers,
Peter

Hi Peter,

I can appreciate that the text on the page seems vague in terms of defining to 
what list the opt-out will apply. We're going to edit the header on the page to 
specifically say "Fundraising email". I hope that helps clarify for other 
donors on multiple Wikimedia lists.

[Wikimedia-l] First French WikiConvention

[Pierre-Yves Beaudouin]

Dear all,

We are proud to announce that the first ever French-speaking Wikimedia
projects editors gathering will take place on August 19-20-21 in Paris,
France. Supported by WikiFranca and organized locally by Wikimedia France,
it's a "dream come true" as the first idea of this event goes back to 2012.

The 1st Francophone WikiConvention will take place in an eco-friendly
rehabilitated place called the Halle Pajol in the 18th arrondissement of
Paris.
Nearly 140 participants from 15 countries will be present. More than 40
proposals were made by the participants to create the program of this 2,5
day convention: gender-inclusive language on Wikipedia, paid contributions,
enriching articles about francophone Paralympic athletes, accessibility and
contribution in Africa ... A variety of themes that reflect the issues of
the francophone part of the Wikimedia movement.

This event was made possible by the support of the International
Organization of the Francophonie, the General Delegation for the French
language and the languages ​​of France, L'Oréal Foundation for Women in
Science, Google France and of course the support of Wikimedia Wikimedia
France and Wikimedia Switzerland, as well as the Wikimedia Foundation. The
event is coordinated by WikiFranca, the organization of chapters,
francophone user groups and contributors of the Wikimedia movement.

It is meant to be then organized annually, if it proves to be successful !
Thank you to all Wikimedians who supported this event. And now, let's do it
!

[Lodewijk]

And, I presume, password reminders, Wikipedia system emails, talkpage
notification emails, incidental invitations for research participation etc?
That would at least be the by me expected behaviour.

I guess there's a more accurate description for the unsubscribe link
imaginable in that case though :) (for future improvements)

Re: [Wikimedia-l] FW: My final email

[Joseph Seddon]

Hey Peter,

So you can unsubscribe from the fundraising and WMF newsletter emails via
that form and you will remain on lists such as Wikimedia-l.

Hope that helps.

Seddon

That link says "Unsubscribe from Wikimedia Email" I am subscribed to a whole 
lot of email from Wikimedia. I only want to unsubscribe from that specific one.
Problem? Vague and unspecific information and suggestion of possible 
unspecified consequences. Unfortunately this is the kind of language I have 
come to expect from Jimmy, and why I don't take anything he writes at face 
value.

Every year he says it is the final email, so far that has not turned out to be 
the case. 
If I click on the unsubscribe link and it actually does what it claims, it will 
be a serious inconvenience to me.

Well, he *did* say it was his final email!

I'd imagine the unsubscribe link would get you off the "former donors we can

[Wikimedia-l] FW: My final email

[Peter Southwood]

Is there any way to unsubscribe from these annoying and in my opinion 
misleading spam mails purporting to come from Jimmy Wales without unsubscribing 
from any other Wikimedia mailing lists or e-mail notifications?

Cheers,

Peter

Inside this email: fun fact from Wikipedia 




 

 


 

Dear Peter,

When the clock strikes midnight, our email fundraiser will end — but we haven't 
yet hit our goal. Please take one minute to renew your R 50 

  donation to Wikipedia.

If all our past donors simply gave again today, we wouldn't have to worry about 
fundraising for the rest of the year.

We’re a small nonprofit. We’re independent. We don’t run ads or sell services 
to our readers. Though our size requires us to maintain the server space and 
programming power of a top site, we are sustained by the support of our donors 
who give an average of about R 175. This year, will you take one minute to keep 
our work going?
