[Wikimediauk-l] Animations
Hi everyone We’re delighted to share the animations <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XA1TdXweNjs=PL66MRMNlLyR7rmF0ylT0fIWxE0YtWmmoA> we’ve been working on with Ritzy Animation over the last few months. There are four animations covering our work; the longest being an intro to Wikimedia UK video, with three slightly shorter videos outlining our three strategic aims of knowledge equity, information literacy, and climate and environment. We’re really pleased with how the animations came out. They’re now on our website in a blog post <https://wikimedia.org.uk/2024/05/bringing-our-mission-to-life-through-animation/> and we've shared them on social media if you’d like to help us spread the word there.

[Wikimediauk-l] Re: Wikidata 10th Birthday
Hi Lewis The majority of our projects now use Wikidata in some way, so it's hard to list them all, but thought you might be interested in some examples: - The Vocal Eyes project will add the information from their report to Wikidata. Volunteers went to heritage sites to gather data on the accessibility of the sites for visitors with access barriers, e.g. blind, deaf, and autistic visitors. - The Wikimedian in Residence at the British Library used Wikidata for the Lotus Sutras project - looking at a potential for some Chinese labelling and querying of the extant Lotus Sutra and data on Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. - The Wikimedian in Residence at the Khalili Collections continues to add detail to the Wikidata representation of the Collections. There are now more than 10,000 statements about Khalili Collections objects, including properties of paintings within manuscripts and albums. Sum of all Paintings, the effort to document all notable paintings in Wikidata, now lists the Khalili Collection of Islamic Art with 95 paintings. - At the National Library of Wales, the resident continues work on mapping Welsh place names. He is working with NLW staff to align our authority records to Wikidata, and merging some Welsh place names on Wikidata due to duplication. - The Wikimedian in Residence at the University of Edinburgh continues to support training for Wikidata, including two internships for the map of accused witches. In fact, the success of the Wikidata Map of Accused Witches in Scotland website has garnered a lot of notice locally, nationally and internationally as a model for opening up research datasets for further research and inquiry, especially when it is done as part of teaching and learning to support students’ understanding of data science. This project has led directly to the Mapping the Scottish Reformation project (an ongoing collaboration) with partners at Newman University, Birmingham, and Washington & Lee University, USA. It has also led to a nascent project as of June 2021 with Dr. Zsusanna Vargas on a project to visualise a map of places of publication for 700-900 books. There is a sense of a growing appetite for providing more training for Wikidata work to support research datasets as certain research grants specify that research outputs be made openly available. There's more projects than just these ones, but these give you a taste of the kind of thing we're using Wikidata for. Wikidata is particularly useful for our newest strategic pillar of climate and environment, as it helps us map climate data on the Wikimedia projects. Our partners for this pillar are also very interested in using Wikidata to get their scientific data, reports about climate initiatives, collections of wildlife information etc. onto the Wikimedia projects. Let me know if you have any questions.

[Wikimediauk-l] 2022 WMUK board elections
Hi all We sent an email to members about board recruitment for this year's AGM. The deadline to apply to be a Wikimedia UK trustee is this Friday 24th at 11:59pm. Here's the copy of the email that went to the membership: *Notice of Wikimedia UK’s Annual General Meeting**Saturday 9th July 2022 online* The next AGM for Wikimedia UK will be held on Saturday 9th July. As a member of the charity this is an important opportunity for you to have your say about how we work, influence how we are run and potentially stand for the board, so we would encourage you to attend. Please put the date in your diary and sign up here <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uks-2022-agm-tickets-348700531677?aff=erelpanelorg> . The AGM will run from 10am-12:30pm. The draft agenda is online here <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/2022_AGM>. Invitation for candidates for election to the Board There are three trustee vacancies at this year’s AGM, with one existing trustee standing for re-election. Any member who meets the criteria has the right to stand, although we are particularly keen to hear from potential candidates with experience in *accounting, external relations, charity governance or the cultural sector*. Understanding and experience of the Wikimedia community is also very beneficial, although not essential for every board member. If you wish to stand please follow the procedure here <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Board/Becoming_a_trustee> and submit your application to the teller – Katie Crampton at tell...@wikimedia.org.uk – *no later than* *Friday 24th June*. Please do feel free to get in touch if you would like to arrange an information discussion about joining the board with our Chief Executive, Lucy Crompton-Reid. *Voting Papers* All current members of the charity will be sent AGM papers by email, including voting papers and proxy forms. We would encourage you to make use of your voting rights, whether or not you are able to join the meeting itself. Voting on the day will take place online via a secure system. If you can’t attend and want to vote in advance of the meeting, the deadline is Thursday 7th July at 11am. Full details of how to submit a proxy vote will be included in your voting pack. If you have changed your email in the last year or would prefer us to use a different email address to contact you on, please do email members...@wikimedia.org.uk with any updates by Friday 24th June. You can also use this email to contact us if you haven't received your voting papers by Monday 4th July. *Annual Report and Accounts* The draft annual report and accounts for 2021/22 are in the process of being signed off by the board and the Auditors. All members will receive a link to online versions of the Annual Report and Strategic Report prior to the AGM.

[Wikimediauk-l] 2022 AGM first formal email
Hi all The first formal email for the 2022 AGM was sent out to all members yesterday. It included details on how to propose resolutions <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/2022_Annual_General_Meeting/Resolutions>, what we're looking for in the three board positions <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Board/Becoming_a_trustee> we have to fill, and the eventbrite <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uks-2022-agm-tickets-348700531677?aff=ebdsoporgprofile> link. The formal AGM is separate from the community aspects of the day this year e.g lightning talks and awards. This means the meeting is much shorter, allowing you to have your afternoon free! As you may have seen from Natasha's survey emails, we will be having community activities later in the year to coincide with Wikimania. If you did not receive the AGM email yesterday and believe you should have, please message me off list. You can apply or renew your WMUK membership here <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Membership>.

[Wikimediauk-l] Re: Global block importer
To be fair minutes for meetings shouldn’t be able to be edited by general editors anyway. I don’t really understand the issue you’ve described Deryck, but minutes of AGMs are legal documents that we need auditors and the membership to approve, so it’d be grand if edits can be suggested to a member of staff such as myself or Lucy as common practice rather than made to the page itself. Many thanks for highlighting the issue though. Best Katie Sent from my iPhone > On 7 Jul 2021, at 20:36, Lucy Crompton-Reid > wrote: > > > Hi Deryck > > I'll ask someone to look into this tomorrow.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Women's History Month interviews
Hi Roger Yes it's covered in the videos, especially in Victoria's interview. I have yet to interview Alice and Lucy, but I know they acknowledge the allies we have in male editors. As it's our first year doing the videos and there are only 5 Mondays in March, we felt these were the people we wanted to ask. While I appreciate that the gender gap is not only a women's issue, I feel that these women are the best people to speak on their work. Thanks for the offer. I actually emailed Ewan to offer him a blog spot, but after some discussion Sarah Lappin will be writing one for us on her upcoming event (you can sign up here <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/women-empowered-wikipedia-editathon-tickets-141961184725>). Lucy will be covering the work of great Wikimedians in Residence like Ewan, that's sort of the idea for her interview i.e. to round up anything that's not been covered in the first 4 interviews and to ask editors who aren't women to get involved.

[Wikimediauk-l] Proposed Universal Code of Conduct
Hi all The Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) is aiming to create a Universal Code of Conduct, which will harmonise existing behavioural policies and guidelines across all Wikimedia projects and languages into one Code of Conduct for all staff and volunteers. Wikimedia UK has created a survey - based on the Art+Feminism community survey - to gather feedback from Wikimedia’s contributors in the UK, which we will share (anonymously) with the Foundation and which will inform our own chapter response to the proposals. There will be further opportunities to provide feedback following the initial drafting stage, at which point there will be a community consultation on the wording of the Code (likely to be from the last week of August). Background reading/viewing includes the following: Announcement of WMF Board mandate on WMF blog <https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2020/05/22/wikimedia-foundation-board-announces-co mmunity-culture-statement/ > Announcement of WMF Board mandate at Wikimedia Foundation Notice Board May 2020 <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/May_2020_-_Bo ard_of_Trustees_on_Healthy_Community_Culture,_Inclusivity,_and_Safe_Spaces 3> Pre-consultation page on Meta, created September 2019 <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct 4>.

Hi all As promised, the UK community feedback meeting for branding is going ahead *today at 1-2pm*. You can find the naming proposals put forward by the Wikimedia Foundation's brand project team here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications/Wikimedia_brands/2030_movement_brand_project/Naming_convention_proposals>, and see the questions we'll be answering in regards to each naming proposal here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications/Wikimedia_brands/2030_movement_brand_project/Naming_convention_proposals/Survey_text#Survey_questions> . Join the Zoom meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81112095916>. Again, this meeting is not to decide whether Wikimedia UK should adopt the rebrand, but to consider how well each of the naming proposals fit the six branding objectives and if we have any other feedback we'd like to give the brand project team.

[Wikimediauk-l] Standing for election to Wikimedia UK's Board of Trustees
Hi all If you haven't signed up for the Annual General Meeting, which will be held online on Saturday 18th July, please do so on Eventbrite here <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uk-2020-agm-tickets-105946892006>. You don't have to be a member to attend, but only members are entitled to vote. Nominations for Wikimedia UK's board of trustees are now open. There are three vacancies at this year's AGM, with two existing trustees standing for reelection. If you wish to stand for the board, please submit a Candidate Statement <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/2020_Annual_General_Meeting/Candidate_Statements> by 6pm on 3rd July 2020. Statements are to be sent to me (Katie) via this email address. You must be a member <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Membership> of Wikimedia UK to stand for the board and you must have joined as a member by Monday 29th June. Members can propose and second candidates for the board, but it is not a requirement for candidates to have a proposer or a seconder, as self-nomination is sufficient. If you would like an informal conversation about standing for the board prior to submitting your candidacy, please let me know and I'll set up a call with Lucy Crompton-Reid, Wikimedia UK's Chief Executive. As all voting for this year's elections will be done by proxy - the deadline for which is 48 hours before the start of the AGM - I wanted to highlight the opportunity for members to ask candidates questions either by editing this page <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/2020_Annual_General_Meeting/Candidate_Questions> or by sending them to me to add to the page on your behalf.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia branding phase 2: naming proposals
Hi all The Foundation's Brand Project Team has announced new dates for the naming proposals feedback. Next week the Live Naming Presentation <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3zlBGHHHiY> will be on YouTube, Tuesday 16th June at 15:00 UTC <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Brand+Naming+Presentation=20200616T15=1440=1> (4pm BST). We will be holding a UK community feedback meeting on *Wednesday 24th June, 1-2pm,* for which I will send a video conference link next week. Again, this meeting is not to decide whether Wikimedia UK should adopt the rebrand, but to discuss the different naming proposals and measure them against the survey questions. The rebrand will not apply to projects such as Wikimedia Commons, Wikidata, or WikiJournal of Medicine, it is only for affiliates such as chapters and user groups who are using the Wikimedia name and logo. The survey questions are now on meta <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications/Wikimedia_brands/2030_movement_brand_project/Naming_convention_proposals/Survey_text>. While the proposals will not be posted until the 16th, reviewing the questions can help you plan your feedback. Upcoming dates - Live Naming Presentation <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3zlBGHHHiY> on Tuesday 16th June at 15:00 UTC <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Brand+Naming+Presentation=20200616T15=1440=1> . We will present the various options that were considered, the risks and rewards of each, and how the process arrived at the three options for review. - *UK community feedback* on Wednesday 24th June at 1-2pm BST. Video conference link to follow. - Feedback providing period: For affiliates and individuals from 16th - 30th June 2020. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia UK’s 2020 AGM - resolutions & invitation to non-members
Hi all Just to let you know, we've extended the deadline for members to suggest resolutions to this Friday, 12th June. The resolutions, which you can find in the link in my last email, will also have two special resolutions; one to allow online voting at future AGMs, and a second for more leniency in our articles for sending members voting packs by post, allowing us to cut down on our paper use and postage cost. Let me know if you have any questions.

[Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia UK’s 2020 AGM - resolutions & invitation to non-members
Dear all Last Friday, emails were sent to all current members of Wikimedia UK regarding our upcoming AGM, which will take place on Saturday 18th July 2020 online. Details of what video conferencing platform we'll be using will be sent with next month's email, so please be sure to sign up on Eventbrite <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uk-2020-agm-tickets-105946892006?aff=erelexpmlt> to book your ticket. Volunteers who aren't members are also welcome at this event, although we would encourage you to become a member <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1=4> (for only £5 a year) to enable you to participate fully in the day. If you believe that you are a member but did not receive a message this morning, please email me at members...@wikimedia.org.uk. Below is a copy of what members were sent. Please note that the full agenda will be sent out next month, but that we are envisaging the event will start at 11am and finish at 3.30pm, with the AGM itself taking place 2 - 3pm. About the day Although we will be meeting virtually rather than in person, we are hoping to make the day as interactive as possible - packed with interesting presentations and discussion, and maybe even some fun activities! We will be talking about and encouraging feedback on some big changes in the global Wikimedia movement - such as implementing the 2030 strategy and rebranding Wikimedia - and inviting lightning talks from members and volunteers. If you would like to give a short presentation about your work as part of our lightning talks session, please contact Sara at sara.tho...@wikimedia.org.uk. Next month we will be inviting nominations for Wikimedian and Partner of the Year, awards which recognise people and institutions that have made a particularly significant contribution to Wikimedia over the past year. AGM and elections In the afternoon we will hold the official Annual General Meeting prior to the presentation of awards. The AGM will include reports from the Chair, Treasurer and Chief Executive, and an opportunity for questions on reports or other relevant issues. There are three trustee vacancies at this year’s AGM, with two existing trustees likely to stand again. Members are warmly encouraged to stand for the board, and we are particularly keen to hear from potential candidates from traditionally underrepresented groups, such as those with protected characteristics as defined by the Equality Act. We will share more details of how to stand for election next month, but in the meantime you can find out more about the Wikimedia UK board here <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4009=561864> . Wikimedia UK’s Articles of Association do not currently allow us to have an online vote, so all voting will be by proxy for this year’s trustee elections. Candidate statements will go up on our Wiki as usual, but as proxy voting closes 48 hours before the AGM we want to highlight the opportunity to ask candidates questions, which you can do so by editing this page <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4010=561864> or by emailing us. Board and members resolutions The board is proposing ordinary resolutions which are on our wiki here <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4004=561864>. This year there will also be special resolutions to allow online voting and electronic voting packs for future AGMs. The text of these resolutions will be published on wiki as soon as possible. Members are also entitled to propose resolutions for consideration at the AGM. Any member who wishes to do so must let us know, with a copy of the suggested text, by Monday 8th June. The text may either be sent by email to the charity at i...@wikimedia.org.uk or may be posted online at https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/2020_Annual_General_Meeting/Resolutions Anyone who wants to attend must register in advance, so please sign up on the Eventbrite <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4008=561864> page. Please note that you must register for the AGM on Eventbrite rather than on wiki as we need your full name, not Wikimedia user name, and we’ll be sending out video conference links to all Eventbrite attendees closer to the event. If you have any questions or more general comments, please do get in touch with me on this email, or on members...@wikimedia.org.uk.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia branding phase 2: naming proposals
Hi all The Brand Project Team has postponed today’s live presentation of the naming proposals due to trademark concerns, more info here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Communications/Wikimedia_brands/2030_movement_brand_project?fbclid=IwAR0kBKCt4cElMDxZrZkTYSoIfintMZZGqgy1Wbp5Ei2ef81BJGkMbTT2lEY#Rescheduling_Naming_Convention_Proposal_community_review>.

[Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia branding phase 2: naming proposals
Morning all As some of you will already know, the Wikimedia Foundation is currently exploring whether or not it should rebrand. The impetus for this is the 2030 movement strategy, and the objective of better communicating who we are in order to attract billions of new users into the movement. Phase 1 of the rebrand has been completed, which resulted in the creation of the design concept of ‘Interconnection’. You can watch the concept presentation here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xS72O6Si94Q>. The branding team are now in Phase 2, which focuses on potential new naming conventions for the Wikimedia Foundation (and potentially other organisations within the movement). The naming convention proposals will be released for movement-wide feedback via a live YouTube presentation <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfJAZEkDVIY> from the Foundation’s branding team this Thursday 7th May at 6pm BST. Wikimedia UK will be holding a video conference on Thursday 14th May at 1-2pm to gather feedback on the proposals. The discussion will focus on how well each naming proposal fulfils the six branding objectives <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Communications/Wikimedia_brands/2030_movement_brand_project#The_qualities_of_good_Movement_branding> as defined by the Wikimedia Foundation. You can give feedback directly in this meeting - either verbally or in the chat - or on this page on Meta <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Brand_Network/Wikimedia_UK>. If you have any questions or would prefer to give feedback by email, please contact me at katie.cramp...@wikimedia.org.uk. We are currently working on the agenda for this hour long meeting, in which we will summarise the current status of the branding project and the proposed new naming conventions, and facilitate feedback from participants. The meeting will be taking place on Zoom so please use the following meeting link: Wikimedia branding meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84923705171?pwd=dXBaRTZXbTNQVDJianlxb0xZL3U5Zz09> Meeting ID: 849 2370 5171 Password: 916100 Wikimedia affiliates <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Brand_Network>, such as chapters and user groups, will have the option of whether to opt in to the new brand and change their own organisational names. However the meeting on 14th May is not to decide whether Wikimedia UK should rebrand, but to discuss the risks and rewards of each naming proposal. We will collate your feedback into a form and submit this to the branding team by the deadline of 21st May. If you’d prefer to give your feedback as an individual there will be a seperate form available.

[Wikimediauk-l] Members for Wikimedia UK's 2020 AGM
Hi all, hope you're well For the members <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Membership> of Wikimedia UK, I wanted to let you know that at our (virtual) board meeting last Saturday, we agreed that the 2020 Annual General Meeting will be held online, rather than as an in-person event. We are following the Charity Commission's guidelines <https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/charities-and-meetings-cc48/charities-and-meetings> so we can help keep everyone safe given the current pandemic: The requirements for charitable companies to have meetings of their members, and to transact certain items of business at meetings of their members, can now be dispensed with in certain circumstances. The date of the AGM will be Saturday 18th July. Given the move to an online only event, we will need to work out how best to enable everyone to participate, and what the format and schedule should look like. You can expect to hear more details from us in a few months time, but for now we would be grateful if you could put the date in your diaries. I'll be sending another email to all members soon. If you do not receive one and think you should, let me know so I can check your membership status. Do get in touch with me by email if you have any questions or comments.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] AGM voting
Hi Fae Your membership expired before we gave the formal notice for the AGM, so I'm afraid you're not eligible to vote in this AGM as the deadline for renewal was 1st July. An email was sent to all 'in grace' members as part of their voting pack for the last AGM on 5th July 2018, including the line "I also noticed *your membership is due for renewal*. In order to vote and remain an active member for the upcoming year, please update your membership here <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1=4>". I can see from the report that you received it to another of your email addresses. I emailed all current members about the 2019 AGM on 24th May, and Lucy followed up with a message to this mailing list containing similar information.

[Wikimediauk-l] Wikimedia UK's 2019 AGM - agenda, board elections, voting papers & lightning talks
Good morning Yesterday evening, emails were sent to all current members of Wikimedia UK with more information on this year's AGM in Bristol, which you can sign up to here <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uk-2019-agm-tickets-62303110280>. Volunteers who aren't members are also welcome at this event, although we would encourage you to become a member <https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1=4> (for only £5 a year) to enable you to participate fully in the day. If you believe that you are a member but did not receive this message yesterday, please let me know. *Notice of Wikimedia UK’s Annual General Meeting**Saturday 13th July 2019 at Watershed, Bristol* The next AGM for Wikimedia UK will be held on Saturday 13th July at the Watershed in Bristol. As a member of the charity this is an important opportunity for you to have your say about how we work, influence how we are run and potentially stand for the board, so we would encourage you to attend. The AGM itself will start at 2.30pm, however we have planned other activities from 11am including talks and workshops, a photography walk of the local area, and the presentations of our Wikimedian of the Year awards as well as our inaugural Honorary Memberships. We are using eventbrite for AGM registrations so please sign up here <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/wikimedia-uk-2019-agm-tickets-62303110280> if you are able to attend. *Invitation for candidates for election to the Board* There are *five trustee vacancies* at this year’s AGM, with three existing trustees likely to stand again. We are particularly keen to have more people from the Wikimedia community on the board, so please do consider standing for these elections. Any member fulfilling the criteria has a right to stand, although we’d particularly appreciate anyone who has experience in Legal, Fundraising, Communications or HR. If you wish to stand please follow the procedure here <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Board/Becoming_a_trustee> and submit your application to the teller no later than *Friday 28th June*. *Voting Papers* All current members of the charity will be sent AGM papers by post, including voting papers and proxy forms. We would encourage you to make use of your voting rights, whether or not you are able to come to the meeting itself. If you are unable to attend, you can appoint another person - including the Chair of the Board of Trustees - as your proxy to attend and vote on your behalf. If you have moved house in the past year, or you are not sure if we have your correct postal address details, please do email members...@wikimedia.org.uk with any updates by Monday 1st July. You can also use this email to contact us if you haven't received your voting papers by Monday 8th July. *Annual Report and Accounts* The draft annual report and accounts are in the process of being signed off by the board and the Auditors, and will be published online prior to the AGM. To save paper, we won’t be sending hard copies of the annual report to all our members this year however copies will be available at the AGM. The Strategic Report will also be available in hard copy or in a PDF online by the time of the AGM. *Lightning Talks* Lightning Talks have proved a popular feature at past meetings and give members the opportunity to hear about a wide range of projects and activities related to Wikimedia and open knowledge more broadly. If you would like to give a talk, please email members...@wikimedia.org.uk and a member of staff will follow up with you directly. We would love to see as many of our members, volunteers and other stakeholders as possible at Bristol’s fantastic Watershed <https://www.watershed.co.uk/> for our AGM <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/2019_AGM> on 13th July, so please sign up below!
