Hey Gregory,
Are you planing to include Portuguese in the list of target languages?
Best,

I am not entirely sure how this connects to the topic of the thread.
However, I feel I should note that we are indeed interested in translating
into other languages, and have been seeking people to help with translation
of the website and other organization materials:
Please note that Foundation website is translated in French, but not in many
other languages (including Italian, mine)...
I don’t know why they don’t give the chance to translate.

I think Florence resumed quite well what I was trying to express.
It’s not a criticism - its a fact : I would have been happy to chat with her to
understand the ligic behind the recent rapid grant changes.
Kind regards,

I saw no criticism of a named individual, but of the Foundation. With
nearly three hundred employees and a budget of a hundred million dollars,
when the Foundation commits to sending a representative to a meeting, it
may reasonably be expected to have the resources to deliver on that
Sorry to say Jane, but your answer strikes me as being completely beside
the point :(
The issue Natachat was raising is related to funding our local
activities, a situation currently made difficult by the new rapid grant
system (*) She gave the example of the Art and Feminism, but this is a
Merci Delphine! Et moi je travaillais donc je n’ai pas pu faire les

Est-ce que ta présentation est en ligne?

Hello,
I participated in the pre-conference in Brussels this year, to which I was
invited to give a workshop about grants. I decided not to stay the whole 4
days because of personal commitments too.
Mais si tu as des questions sur les grants, je suis là :)
Best,

Thanks for your clarification! Yes of course it is difficult to keep up
with changing WMF rules regarding funding (or reporting). I know in the
past we have run into problems trying to stay aware of all the ins-and-outs
of these things in the Netherlands chapter and for chapters with
sub-sections
Thank you Katherine,
We will be happy to see you in Tunis!
Along with other reps of the WMF I hope, with the possibility of booking
appointments with :
- T
- outreach
- grant rep
- tech rep

Hi Jane,
Thank you for your answer, but I think I did not make my point clear enough
given the answer you made.
On the francophone wiki there is not “local WIR”. There are a few sister
projects like les sans pages of which I am the founder (so people might turn to
me for questions) or
Hi all,
Just a quick note that I was invited to Wikiconvention on Friday 9 August
by Wikimedia France. On Monday 12 August (delayed by travel to Wikimania!)
I sent a note expressing my regrets, as I had a family wedding to attend
during that same weekend as the Convention. I also asked at the

Hi,
A different angle for looking at the question of WMF staff attending
community events which may help this conversation:
As a staff member (and acknowledging that my position is none of the

Gereon, you clearly forget the whole Mediaviewer saga and attendance of WMF
staff at the following WikiCon in Cologne ;-) But that was a long time ago

As far as Art+Feminism goes, this project concentrates on biographies of

Since 2010 we have the WikiCon for the German language communities with
more than 300 attendants. I don't remember that the WMF has sent anyone
to these conventions. And why should they? It's all in German, the
communities are established and have strong chapters. I suppose the same

Before we call out individuals for lack of attendance publicly, I think we
should remember that both volunteers and staff have lives outside of
