Re: [Wikimedia-l] Strategic planning for conferences

Hi Alex, per Dan's suggestion that I provide a reminder of the original question, here is a reminder of part of what I wrote previously at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2018-September/091113.html . "I think that it would be helpful to have a big picture understanding of the

It may be helpful if you repeat the specific question you're asking. Right now from your email I don't know what your question is other than asking what the "strategy for conferences" is, which is so open and vague as to be basically unanswerable. I think you have perhaps made your question

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Strategic planning for conferences

Hi Alex, I hope that you are doing well. I originally started this email thread on Wikimedia-l near the end of September 2018, and four months have passed. I am still hoping to hear an update about WMF's strategy for conferences. I am trying to be patient and considerate, but I think that you may

Hi Alex, I hope that your 2019 is starting well. You may remember this thread from Wikimedia-l that I started near the end of September. Would you please provide an update regarding strategic planning for conferences? I realize that you may have several projects on your agenda including hiring a

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Strategic planning for conferences

hello Pine, Did you have a look at the events team manager job description? It is an open position, so there is currently nobody at the wmf to answer your question. For me the concept of 'event' is broader than the range of conferences you described. Would you consider yourself as a candidate for

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Strategic planning for conferences

Hello, My request from September has gone unanswered, so I am trying again. I don't think that there is a single point of contact for conference funding and strategy at WMF, but I think that there should be, and perhaps the lack of such a person is why there hasn't been a response to this email.

[Wikimedia-l] Strategic planning for conferences

Mindful of the ongoing discussions about conferences, I think that it would be helpful to have a big picture understanding of the goals, plans, and budgets for conferences collectively. As far as I know, these are the types of recurring conferences: (1) Wikimania, which seems to be a

Thank you for the reflections, Yaroslav, Specific replies inline below. Pine, thank you for the invitation; actually, this video was done in preparation for my panel session at the Wikipedia 15 celebration, which will also be live-streamed later in the day. Eugene will be one of my panelists, and

[Wikimedia-l] Strategic planning

All: With the expiration of the 2011-2015 Strategic Plan, many of us are interested in future strategic planning efforts. With that in mind (and as part of a series of interviews I'm doing to celebrate Wikipedia Day), I interviewed Eugene Eric Kim, who designed the community engagement process
