Re: [Wikimedia-l] Q1 Fundraising Update

Hi Folks -- I would suggest that if you are unhappy with the banners you apply your energy to the annual planning process[1]. As long as the budget goes up 20% year over year and page views fall, the Fundraising team will need to crank up the banners. It's worth pointing out that Fundraising is

Hi Liang, Ellie did reach out to Josh recently regarding the Manila bid (after which Josh relayed the message to our team) and, supposedly, she is also reaching out to members of the Bali and Perth bids. We (in the Manila team) are still discussing this, so I am not at liberty to provide further

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Q1 Fundraising Update
