Re: [Wikimedia-l] WMF's New Global South Strategy

2013-10-01 Thread Heather Ford
Thank you so very much for your reply, Anasuya and Asaf. And sorry you've
been ill :(

Your message was so helpful - thank you for explaining how the decisions
were made, and for writing that you are open to changes in the strategy as
you learn more about this process. That is much appreciated :) I also want
to say that I don't want this to be seen as an attack on the strategy. I
think you have done such great work already, and more importantly, have
been open to learning from your mistakes (as we have as we've gone through
this process with you) at a time when there has been tremendous changes at
the Foundation - all of which I appreciate. I just think that there are
some foundational challenges that the current strategy brings up that I've
been thinking a lot about recently. I share them with you in good faith
below :)

1. The first point is that there is a key symbolic and practical difference
between focus countries and general support. As Asaf said at Wikimania (my
paraphrasing): 'We won't go out of our way to support projects outside of
these countries, but will be open to requests for support from anyone
elsewhere.' I think the feeling in some countries outside of this scope is
that, instead of welcoming their initiatives, they are sometimes met with
immediate and pretty vehement opposition. This isn't to say that the WMF
isn't supporting those initiatives, it's just that the tone of those
conversations is often oppositional and sometimes even aggressive which
doesn't bode well for good relationships between the Foundation and
community members who, admittedly have a long way to go to developing
strong proposals for support, but who need to feel supported and valued if
they are to continue doing this work. This makes the 'active focus' so much
more of a big deal than it would immediately be apparent: being in an area
of active focus often means that the barriers are just much easier to
overcome since it is in the WMF's best interests to make things happen
there.

2. My second point is that the WMF has chosen to look mostly at active
editors at a national level in order to decide on the focus countries, but
has added more symbolic reasons in its decision to support Egypt. I totally
support the decision to focus on Egypt but I think it points to the need
for a systematic approach for choosing what active interventions the
Foundation will make. The problem, I think, with the approach of using
active editor counts as the primary way of deciding which countries to
focus on are as follows:

- Countries are being compared to one another without an understanding of
the barriers to participation in different parts of the world. The
unintended consequence of this is that it gives the impression by people
working in places where it is a major success to get just one more active
editor, just one more article about a relevant local topic, rather than
scores more that their work isn't valued as highly.

- We often choose a particular way of evaluating where to focus our efforts
because of the availability of the data, rather than because it is the best
way of understanding a problem. The problem with this is that it can result
in us believing that this is the right way of evaluating whether something
will be successful when other alternatives (perhaps more difficult) might
prove to be more accurate.

- Finally, I was struck that the number of *readers* of Wikipedia aren't
taken account in this decision. There is a great paper by Judd Antin and
Coye Cheshire called 'Readers are not free riders' [1] that speaks about
the importance of reading Wikipedia in becoming a Wikipedian. Active
editors shouldn't, I believe, be the only way to think about which
communities are most engaged in Wikipedia.

3. All of these issues lead me back to the same question: what is the goal
of this programme? And: how will we know when it is successful? Is it about
increasing the numbers of active editors in particular countries? Or, is it
about trying to actively solve the problem of weak representation of
particular subjects and people at the level of geography? I would advocate
for the former rather than the latter because increasing numbers cannot be
seen as an end in itself. We have the benefit of being a community that
doesn't have to be driven by numbers or shareholders or profits. We can
think more deeply about the symbolic power of our interventions and about
what it means to be successful as a global movement. We're trying to build
an encyclopedia in which the sum of all human knowledge is represented.
We're only going to do that with the involvement of people around the
world. And as people like Mark Graham have shown [2], some of the weakest
representation on Wikipedia is of places in sub-Saharan Africa.
Understanding why this is a problem *by engaging in projects* in this part
of the world seems to me an obvious strategy - but only if this is the type
of goal that we're looking towards.

4. What I would advocate for is two 

[Wikimedia-l] [Wikimedia France] Welcome to Nathalie, our new ED

2013-10-01 Thread Christophe Henner
Hi everyone,

We have the great pleasure to announce Nathalie Martin is starting
today as the new Executive Director of Wikimédia France!

Her hiring is the tipping point of a process we started last January
when we hired a HR firm to audit our organization and support us in
finding the right person for this key role.

With a background in political science and organizations strategy,
Nathalie has a deep experience managing several associations of
similar or bigger size as Wikimedia France. Even though she is not
from the movement, we believe she'll adapt quickly to who we are.

She came to Wikimania in Hong-Kong, and some of you may have had the
pleasure to meet her. By coming to Wikimania she had the luck to
experience in 3 day what Wikimedia is at large, to meet wikimedians
from all around the world. I'm happy to say that she too suffered from
PWD (Post-Wikimania Depression).

If you need to contact her, her email address is
nathalie.mar...@wikimedia.fr. Please keep in mind that it's her first
day within our movement and she still will need few days to adapt to
our awesomeness

Please join us in welcoming Nathalie!

Best,

PS: please keep her in copy of your answers :)

  Hi everyone,
 
  We have the great pleasure to announce Nathalie Martin is starting
  today as the new Executive Director of Wikimédia France!
 
  Her hiring is the tipping point of a process we started last January
  when we hired a HR firm to audit our organization and support us in
  finding the right person for this key role.
 
  With a background in political science and organizations strategy,
  Nathalie has a deep experience managing several associations of
  similar or bigger size as Wikimedia France. Even though she is not
  from the movement, we believe she'll adapt quickly to who we are.
 
  She came to Wikimania in Hong-Kong, and some of you may have had the
  pleasure to meet her. By coming to Wikimania she had the luck to
  experience in 3 day what Wikimedia is at large, to meet wikimedians
  from all around the world. I'm happy to say that she too suffered from
  PWD (Post-Wikimania Depression).
 
  If you need to contact her, her email address is
  nathalie.mar...@wikimedia.fr. Please keep in mind that it's her first
  day within our movement and she still will need few days to adapt to
  our awesomeness
 
  Please join us in welcoming Nathalie!
 
  Best,
 
  PS: please keep her in copy of your answers :)

[Wikimedia-l] Invalid security certificate for en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org

2013-10-01 Thread Chris McKenna
Trying to access almost anything on en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org using 
https results in dire warnings from Firefox that the security certificate 
is not valid.


Looking at the details it is issued to *.wmflabs.org, which at least as 
far as Firefox 24 on linux is concerned doesn't seem to cover deeper 
levels of subdomains.

Yes, beta can't currently really be used unless you manually confirm 
certificates. (Which, by the way, you should never do on any website.)
