Re: [Wikimedia-l] 2020 Community Wishlist Survey: Submit Your Proposals

2019-10-25 Thread Ilana Fried 
Hello, there! Most of your questions are answered on the survey page[1][2].
The first announcement[3] was an invitation for feedback on the new format.
On October 17, the official decision was made[4] on what projects to serve,
and the position has not changed since. We posted the update on Meta-Wiki,
although we did not update this mailing list (and, for that, we apologize).
This thread was initiated to announce that the proposal phase has begun.

Stewards and global sysops do help out smaller wikis, Yet, if we were to
permit global wishes, they would again dominate the survey and undermine
our goal of answering to the smaller communities, who, up until now, had
little chance of getting something out of the survey. WMF also has some
dedicated resources for stewards, as is the case with Commons and Wikidata.
We wanted to fill in the gaps in cases where no resources exist. We hope
you understand why this decision was made, and keep in mind this format is
an experiment and next year we'll likely return to the broader community.

Furthermore, requests that "generally target all wikis" are also now
excluded. Does that mean that requests relating to the work of stewards and
global sysops, who do much of the work on small wikis, are also excluded?

The additional exclusion of Commons and Wikidata was not previously
announced. In fact, the previous statement excluding Wikipedias explicitly
stated that wishlist items from Commons and Wikidata would still be
accepted.

Could you explain the reason for this change and why it wasn't communicated
earlier?

The 2020 Community Wishlist Survey
 is now
open! This survey is the process where communities decide what the Community
Tech  team should work on
over the next year. We encourage everyone to submit proposals until the
deadline on November 11, or comment on other proposals to help make them
better. To submit proposals, you can check out the guidelines on the survey
page
.
This year, we’ll only be accepting wishes for non-Wikipedia content
projects with no dedicated teams (i.e., Wikibooks, Wiktionary, Wikiquote,
Wikisource, Wikiversity, Wikispecies, Wikivoyage, and Wikinews). To learn
more about the new format, we invite you to visit the survey page
.
Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your proposals!
