Re: [Wikimedia-l] Thanks for all the fish! / Stepping down April 15

Thank you Katherine, I think it is a tribute to all you have done that many people will not have even realised you had been here for 7 years and many more would not have expected you to move on so soon. The WMF is far place than was when you started to move forward in conjunction with the

[Wikimedia-l] Idea of a new project: Wikifacts ?

Hi all, Has there been any discussion to start a new Wikimedia project focusing on fact checking? Fact checking of course is in the core of editing Wikipedia, but I was thinking about dedicated wiki-site that is dedicated for fact checking of current events and news. Why this would be

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Thanks for all the fish! / Stepping down April 15

Katherine, The WMF will be less without you in it. One of the things that made me comfortable with my own departure so many years ago was the certain knowledge that you would keep the wheels on and keep the WMF pointed in the right direction. But I know you must be exhausted, and drained, so
