Re: [Wikimedia-l] Feedback on the last 2 years

Hi,

I will try to put up the matrix and its documentation in english on
meta later this week. You can find the matrix itsel in english there
on meta : 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:APG/Proposals/2013-2014_round2/Wikim%C3%A9dia_France/Proposal_form#4._How_will_your_organization_measure_and_report_the_results_of_this_program.3F

As said before, this is a first step. It is far from being perfect,
but it's the first step. Now we have something to build on and draw
experience from.

Thanks to all the person that said this feedback was interesting. We
will try to make such reports, more governance oriented than program
oriented, more oftenly to keep you up to date with what works and what
doesn't.

All the best,

Christophe

 Thank you Christophe.
 This mail is really useful and I really hope, as Pine said, you will be
 able to share some of the documentation in English.
 It would be really helpful for chapters to understand these issues and,
 above all, the solutions.

  Is the decision matrix that you use for your programs available in

  would like to have a copy of it on Meta along with these emails.
 
  I am interested in this subject partly because of the discussion about

Thanks Christophe,

The metrics are easy to understand, I like their simplicity. This
makes your goals easy to track, such as both number of volunteer hours
and numbers of volunteers being used to analyse volunteer involvement.

It would be neat if all chapters were to make these standard, cheap
and easy to understand measurements available centrally, as year by
year trend charts so that everyone can see the long term impact (or
non-impact) of changes, such as changing employee numbers or chapter
membership. As with most organizations, it can be hard to see the wood
for the trees, especially once we are locked in a 12-month cycle of
bidding and funding and the 3 year plus trend is then never worth
reporting, as the FDC did not ask for it.

Thank you, Christophe!
You demonstrate that the idea of sharing experiences is more than only
sharing success stories. And what sounds so easy is so hard to realize and
we all are not really experienced in it. You've shown how it can be handled
and we all can learn from you and follow your example.

Thanks,
Alice.
