Thank you for taking the time to explain, Chris. Actually we need some
kind of good terms to replace some older terms, but the challenge is
that they have to fit the current situation - or, as I understand you,
to introduce a change of the current situation.
Kind regards

Hoi,
* The global brand will make it even easier to forget who we are at the
Foundation. This is exactly what is to be prevented. The existing bias is
already too big.
* Not necessarily sure but it is inevitable because you say that is who we
are.
When we are to do better in our mission, we should
Thanks!
I prefer students to work directly on Wiki and not on the Dashboard, as they
don't understand why they are in a completely different page that doesn't seem
to be related to Wikipedia. But this is useful for some courses.

I for one would prefer that proposals were entered on wiki and only links
to them be posted in an email here with a 5-word topic for each.

From the first text:
" Explore new naming conventions for the Foundation and affiliate groups that
use Wikipedia rather than Wikimedia."
I also think that Wikipedia is a much stronger brand than Wikimedia is, but I
have been talking about this issue the last weeks in different places with way
Nonetheless, the 'what ifs' are worrisome is the proposal is accepted.
People (govts, enterprises, etc) would think it's a mistake with the name
Wikimedia and incorrectly deduce (after some Google search on their part)
that the name is Wikipedia Russia, not Wikimedia Russia.

At the occasion, we should also reconsider the expressions "chapter"
and "user group".
"Chapter" is more suitable for local divisions of a national
association. And "user group" sounds just like some group. We also
already have "user group" as a technical term in MediaWiki.

From what I know:
* The global brand won't stop Wikidata being Wikidata.
* Wikimedia Russia won't necessarily become Wikipedia Russia

Hoi,
Wikipedia is one brand. In some of our "markets" Wikibooks is of greater
relevance. We destroy important brands that are important in the
alphabetisation of real people.
When you think that all there is is Wikipedia. Fine but you are wrong.

The idea of rebranding Wikimedia to Wikipedia will create FAR more problems
than it solves, specially in places where identifying ourselves with Wikipedia
could create real life problems to affiliates. Let's think on making our
