Hi Nemo. Thanks for the welcome! Answers below in blue.

Can you please define international? As for internationalisation in the software sense, the shop is hardcoded in English: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37797 At the moment, I can't give you a real definition of international. Because the store has changed hands, we are working on creating a more cohesive strategy for accomplishing some of the shop's major goals, such as institutionalizing the giveaways program to ensure community members are being awarded on a consistent basis for their work. This is just one example of the many small facets of the store that need greater planning before we expand its scope internationally. Conducting an international campaign would certainly be done in conjunction with creating multi-lingual iterations of the store, which we will move toward in the coming year.

Thanks! I've registered an cc'd and will get more involved in the conversation as our plan surrounding internationalizing the store develops.

[Wikimedia-l] WMF Online Store Promotion
Hello everyone, As you may already know, the Wikimedia Foundation supports a small but growing online store meant to give editors a chance to wear their passion for Wikipedia in shirts, scarves, backpacks, and more. This November, we will be running a short campaign for logged-in users in the US only, spreading the word about the store to those who have not had an opportunity to check it out. This will result in the display of a small banner at the top of your page from November 11 through November 15, just as a casual reminder that we’ve got Wikipedia merchandise at 10% off to keep you warm while you edit! While the promotion will only be displayed in the US, all international users are welcome to order through the store and reap the benefits of the discount. After we work out the kinks in this campaign, we’ll investigate the possibility of similar international campaigns in the future. The banner is set to show up to each user only two times. And remember, if you get tired of seeing the notification, just click the “X” on the banner and it will disappear. As always, the proceeds from our online store go toward community events and our Volunteer Giveaway Programhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Merchandise_giveaways, helping us to recognize fabulous editors who have played an instrumental role in making Wikipedia what it is today. If you have any questions about the online store or would like to provide feedback, feel free to email us at merchand...@wikimedia.orgfeedb...@wikimedia.org, or fill out this survey http://www.formstack.com/forms/?1546304-Ayh5Vr2cgO.

Good to know that the WMF is still fully committed to keeping Wikipedia advert-free (or maybe not).
