 Objet: [Wikimedia Announcements] WMF Board approval of new Trademark policy 
 and recommendation on the Community logo registration
 Répondre à: wikimedi...@lists.wikimedia.org
 
 Hi all, 
 
 We are happy to announce that the Board of Trustees approved the new 
 Trademark Policy this Saturday.[1] The policy is based on a seven-month 
 consultation with the community to replace our 2009 policy. The new policy is 
 unconventional in how it provides expansive use of the Wikimedia marks. 
 Thanks to the community’s collaboration, the policy is more readable, 
 thorough, and consistent with our values.
 
 The Board also approved our recommendation to withdraw trademark registration 
 and protection for the Community logo.[2] We will now initiate withdrawal of 
 US and worldwide registrations.
 
 Many thanks to everyone who participated in these two consultations!
 
 Thanks, 
 Yana and Geoff

 Objet: [Wikimedia-l] Fwd: Invitation to Chapters and Photographers for the 
 European Parliament Project 2014
 Répondre à: Wikimedia Mailing List wikimedi...@lists.wikimedia.org
 
 Dear Chapters,
 
 this is a mail focused on chapters within the European Union but of course
 support and participation of any chapter is welcome!
 
 == Preamble ==
 Some might have heard about the State Parliament Projects done in Germany
 and Austria since 2009:
 A bunch of Wikipedians and photographers meet politicians in the
 parliament, shoot professional photos, discuss their Wikipedia articles
 etc. This way hundreds of free licensed, high quality images have been
 made, Wikipedia articles have been improved. In the latest project at
 Schwerin (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) we added videos, politicians give a short
 introduction about themselves, their position and political focus in German
 and in their mother tongue if different from German.
 About 20 photographers were able to participate and processes how to work
 with the parliament's administration, how to interact with the politicians,
 how to efficiently take a lot of photos in a short time and with good
 quality have been established.
 
 == Next Level: European Parliament ==
 Now we would like to take this to next level: After contacting the European
 Parliament I was able to get their approval, the support by the parties and
 a date!
 Unfortunately the date is already in February, 3rd to 7th, as we have to
 use the short time gap between budget deliberations and elections. MEPs
 only travel to the EP when deliberations are ongoing but then they are also
 busy with meetings, as soon as the election preperation starts there won't
 be any time for our project within the next 6 months.
 Anyway I am sure we can do that - the elections are also a great
 opportunity to raise awareness on our material we have in Wikipedia and on
 Commons. It is also an excellent opportunity to bring together volunteers
 in doing our core work together, maybe we can transfer the idea of
 Parliament Projects to other countries. Volunteers get the opportunity to
 learn from each other - the EP is a very challenging project, having more
 than 700 MEPs to be handled within a few days. And Wikipedia may improve
 its articles, also by bringing together volunteers from different EU
 countries. Many MEPs have their articles only in a few of the European
 languages, some not even in their native language!
 
 == Your Chapter Involved ==
 We are looking forward to get volunteers from as many countries as possible
 involved in this project. In order to be handle it we need approx. 35
 people to help. Obviously the german and austrian photographers are already
 waiting for it, from past projects they already know what will go on. But
 there is much more to it: We want your volunteers!
 Imagine a project where we could bring together volunteers from all 24
 language communities in the EU - that is what we are trying!
 
 Therefore we ask you for a favour:
 * please forward this invitation to your local community - you can point
 them to our project page on Wikimedia Commons:
 **
 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wikipedians_in_European_Parliament
 
 * does your chapter provide travel support for those volunteers in your
 country who want to participate? Please do so. Your chapter pays for the
 transportation to / from Strasbourg and the accommodation (around 300 EUR
 per person for all 6 nights), we take care of the rest (transportation
 hotel - EP, catering etc.)
 **
 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wikipedians_in_European_Parliament/Participation
 
 * does your chapter have photographic equipment we might need? We could use
 DSLRs, flash units, background systems, lenses...
 **
 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wikipedians_in_European_Parliament/Equipment
 
 * we would like to supply the volunteers with t-shirts or hoodies with
 Wikipedia logo or similar - for a unified appearance and to make them
 visible as volunteers and Wikimedians. Is your chapter (or the WMF?)
 interested in providing 90 shirts / hoodies? (We planned 2 pc. per person
 as they will be worn almost one week.)
 **

 * everyone who likes this project: state your support on the talk page of
 our grant request to the WMF which should cover the general costs of the
 project

 Dear all,
 
 you may already have seen the announcement on the meta page [1] or on
 Facebook [2]; nevertheless we would like to inform you that the official
 registration [3] for the Wikimedia Diversity Conference is open until *20

 The conference will focus on two aspects of diversity, that is gender
 diversity (the gender gap  and LGBT initiative) and geographic diversity
 (including the global south, linguistic and economic diversity).
 
 The conference will be addressing an international audience and will
 therefore be held in English.
 
 The registration form allows to propose up to three submissions for the
 conference and to apply for a scholarship. If you would like to be part of
 this conference, please do not forget to register until 20 September, which
 is the final deadline.
 
 If you are not yet sure about attending, but are interested in the topic,

 Hi,
 
 I'm presently working on making all the chapter agreements between Chapters 
 and the WMF public, by publishing them on Meta at 
 https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Chapter_Agreements.
 
 The majority of chapters have already made their chapter agreements public 
 but as far as I can tell Wikimedia CH and a few others still have their 
 agreements only on the private internal wiki (which I believe is in the 
 process of being shut down).
 
 From what I understand, the WMF is okay with chapters publishing the custom 
 versions, but this needs the consent of the chapter. Please can you tell me 
 who would be the best person to ask to make Wikimedia CH's agreement public?

The call for project 2014 for Wikimedia CH should be launch later this month, I

 dear all
 during the last general assembly we visited the Ethnographical museum in 
 Neuchâtel http://www.men.ch (below some more info about the museum [1]).
 
 How about an exhibition about Wikipedia there?
 
 The idea of an exhibition about Wikipedia actually comes from the museum 
 director Marc-Olivier Gonseth, who launched the idea the first time we met 
 last year. 
 
 In those last weeks I have contacted 
 1) Andrew Lih. during Wikimania 2012 he mentioned an exhibition is was 
 working on. the exhibition is planned for end 2013-beginning of 2014 at the 
 Computer history museum [2]. we are currently in contact to see if maybe we 
 can bridge the two projects or learn from each over.
 2) WMF to ask about other exhibition projects. for the moment no news.
 3) the research group Open Online Communities which involves several 
 researchers in different European countries and universities working on the 
 topic of OOC and wikipedia (i am one of the research members). the group 
 seems interested in contributing to provide content and research.
 
 personally i think it can be a relevant project and it could be also designed 
 as an itinerant show. 
 of course the Ethnographical museum in Neuchâtel needs to be recontacted, but 
 i think it would be nice to make a wikipedia/wikimedia projects (i like for 
 example the approach of Andrew Lih of organising a meetup there.
 
 what do you think? anyone interested in the idea? do you think WIkimedia CH 
 could be involved? 
 all the best
 iolanda/iopensa
 
 
 [1] The Ethnographical museum in Neuchâtel is a small museum but it is 
 considered in the anthropological field as one of the best museums. It has a 
 very peculiar approach. All its exhibitions try to unpack culture and 
 knowledge. They focus on the meta-discourse, and they use an 
 historiographical approach, they detect critical issues, and they show how 
 categories shape our perception of culture and the world. There is also a 
 strong research work behind the exhibitions. I think it can be a very 
 interesting place to develop an exhibition related to Wikipedia. Maybe we 
 could envision an exhibition for 2015.

 Hello,
 
 There is a proposal on meta at 
 http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Proposals_for_closing_projects#Close_Wikinews_completely.2C_all_languages.3F
  to close Wikinews.  
 
 Currently, there is at least one French educational activity happening on 
 French Wikinews.  (The French education project provides an opportunity for 
 some African contributors to share news that would not otherwise be 
 published.)  On English Wikinews, there is a class of university students 
 practicing journalism skills as journalism class at the University of 
 Wollongong.  This is the third time the instructor has used this Wikinews, 
 with community support, to teach future journalists the importance of 
 neutral, fact based reporting that must be verifiable. 
 
 Comment would be appreciated.
 
 Sincerely,
 Laura Hale

Merci Adrienne pour ce compte rendu, c'est à mon avis aussi très positif rien 
que pour le travail en équipe avec Wikimedia CA. J'aurais presque envie de dire 
que les moins que tu as noté ne me choque pas au final: 

* on commence à 2 chapters et c'est déjà bien 
* après concernant les gens touchés c'est toujours très difficile d'avoir un 
retour de ce genre de salon (même pour des pro.) car les contacts pris peuvent 
aboutir que très longtemps après


Dans tous les cas, je pense que ce qui est excellent c'est que notre présence à 
ces rencontres (ou aussi ce qu'on a fait lors des états généraux de la langue

partenaire.


Bref, bravo à tous


Le 11 juillet 2012 02:01, Adrienne Alix adrienne.a...@wikimedia.fr a écrit :
 Bonjour à tous, 
 
 
 Du lundi 2 au vendredi 6 juillet dernier, a eu lieu à Québec le premier Forum 
 Mondial de la Langue Française. Organisé sous les auspices de l'OIF 
 (Organisation internationale de la Francophonie) mais porté par la société 
 civile et faisant une large part aux citoyens de tous les pays francophones, 
 il a rassemblé environ 1000 personnes venant de toute la francophonie, avec 
 une part importante de francophones d'Amérique du Nord, mais aussi de toute 
 l'Afrique de l'Ouest et centrale, ainsi que du Maghreb.
 
 Lors de l'annonce de ce forum il a été lancé un appel à projets, pour 
 sélectionner les intervenants aux conférences et ateliers, et les 
 organisations qui tiendraient des stands.
 
 Pour ceux qui s'en souviennent, on s'est lancés dans cet appel avec un petit 
 groupe de français et de wikimédiens québécois, pour une candidature 
 commune Wikimédia France / Wikimédia Canada :  
 https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Forum_mondial_de_la_langue_fran%C3%A7aise
 
 Nous avons proposé plusieurs projets qui ont été vraiment très bien reçus et 
 au final, nous avions pendant la semaine : 
 - 4 wikimédiens à demeure (Antoine Letarte, Simon Villeneuve, Olier Raby pour 
 le Québec, moi-même pour la France, Thierry n'ayant pu au dernier moment nous 
 accompagner) avec un peu de renfort un jour dans la semaine
 


- un stand avec en avant un espace pour discuter avec les gens, et derrière un 
espace avec des tables et chaises et de quoi installer 6 ordinateurs pour 
apprendre aux gens à contribuer sur Wikipédia
 - une table ronde sur la place du français sur les projets Wikimédia (par 
 Simon)
 


- une table ronde où on a parlé des projets éducatifs autour de Wikipédia (par 
Antoine) et du projet Afripedia (moi)
 - une place de grand témoin pour conclure la journée sur le numérique le 
 jeudi, assurée par moi-même, et bonne tribue pour faire passer des messages 
 d'ouverture des contenus etc :)
 
 La semaine est passée à toute vitesse, je vous livre donc quelques points 
 positifs et moins positifs sur cette semaine de présence à la grand-messe de 
 la francophonie : 
 
 1/ positif 
 
 Très bonne image de Wikipédia auprès des visiteurs du stand, des gens 
 rencontrés en général, de l'accueil pendant les confs. On ne nous parle plus 
 trop de soucis de fiabilité, mais plutôt de tout ce que Wikipédia apporte.
 
 En étant 4, nous avons pu globalement satisfaire la demande au stand (même si 
 parfois c'était limite). Un coup de chapeau spécial à Olier qui a tenu bon 
 toute la semaine :)
 On a au final une grosse vingtaine de gens qui ont fait leurs premières 
 contributions, certains s'étant directement pris au jeu et continuant à 
 contribuer, pour d'autres on a semé une graine, on ne peut qu'espérer qu'elle 
 germera...
 


Les gens venus nous voir étaient à 80% d'Afrique centrale et de l'Ouest à vue 
de nez. Pas mal de gens du Maghreb aussi, et des francophones des pays de l'Est 
(Roumanie, Ukraine etc)
 
 Les tables rondes ont été très appréciées, on a senti l'assentiment et 
 l'intérêt des gens non seulement pour nos projets mais aussi pour l'esprit 
 qu'on y met
 
 J'avais emporté un plug Afripedia pour le montrer, il a été très très bien 
 reçu par les gens vers qui le projet est tourné, c'est à dire les africains. 
 Un responsable de centres numériques au Burkina Faso a même embarqué le plug, 
 et on a pour objectif de monter un projet ensemble.
 
 Vrai plaisir de travailler en commun entre français et québécois, durant la 
 préparation et le déroulement du forum. Outre le plaisir de se rencontrer 
 réellement au final (en plus d'après Olier, finalement je ne suis pas si 
 chiante que j'en avais l'air, victoire ! :D), il y a ce côté enthousiasmant 
 de voir qu'on peut monter des projets intéressants parce qu'on partage la 
 même langue, et que la francophonie ça a

I found this on the wikitech mailinglist and find this surprising and
interesting. Maybe WMCH could offer that somewhere in the future in

proposition to have a second GA focus on project in fall.


It would be really efficient if we could be fast for the general point 
during the morning session, in order to save some times before lunch to 
organize the afternoon.


If the board hasn't propose a fixed agenda for the afternoon it's to 
allow some adaptation to the people present and then maximize the 
efficiency.


sincerely

Charles

Dear all,

Would it make sense to set up the workshops as kick-off meetings of working 
groups which will meet in RL or online at several times over the coming months and then 
report back to the Board/the Members? - Some issues might be too broad to be dealt with 
during one afternoon and will need follow-up and active involvement of members over a 
longer period of time.

My 2 cents
Beat

It is clear to me, basically I am doing advertising in order to
improve the communication (what WM CH does, how the persons can
collaborate), to raise people but also to invite current members to be
active, but I am trying to do that in Italian side because the costs
are lower and I can experience the insuccess/insuccess of some channels.

It means that this experience can be shared in order to apply it in
biggest areas.

But the question of transparency and accountability is more focused
with the last proposed workshop because this is also a request of WMF
in order to improve the quality.

I mean transparency in general, for example related to the Project
management:
* who does what?
* what are the current projects?
* who is working on a project? what is the timeline?
* ...

But also, you are right, accountability:
* What are the activities of the board?
* Where is the list of the board decisions?
* Which votes are coming to the board?
...

Topic for this workshop is really broad... we won't be able to speak about
everything, but I do not want to (pre)ignore one point if attendees want
to speak about that.

Samedi 9 juin - Marchairuz
Depuis le col nous traverserons une hêtraie à sapins typiques avec la tozzia
des Alpes et le groseiller des rochers, avant de descendre dans la combe
marécageuse des Amburnex, où abondent des fleurs rares, entre autres la
laiche des bourbiers. Puis, joli contraste, nous monterons sur les grandes
dalles des lapiez, arides et sèches, pour admirer le lotier poilu et le
cotoneaster. Au retour, sur les buttes fleuries, nous nous coucherons sur la
pelouse pour sentir le parfum d'une douceur pénétrante du daphné camélée.
Délai d'inscription : 2 juin 
Prix : CHF 21

Samedi 23 juin - La Dôle
C'est aussi un haut lieu de la flore suisse. Plusieurs espèces ne poussent
en Suisse que sur ce sommet, en particulier l'androsace velue, l'anthyllide
des montagnes et la renoncule thora. Nous redescenderons le sommet en
longeant un pierrier riche en espèces peu communes, comme le buplèvre à
longues feuilles, la scrophulaire du Jura, le vélar jaune pâle.
Délai d'inscription : 16 juin
Prix : CHF 27

Samedi 7 juillet - Schynige-Platte
Déjà lors de la montée en chemin de fer à crémaillière, nous serons
impressionnés par le panorama grandiose qui s'ouvre sur tout l'Oberland
bernois. A couper le souffle ! Les crêtes rocheuses - que nous parcourerons
sur des chemins bien entretenus - abritent une flore très diversifiée. Nous
prendrons le temps de visiter l'excellent jardin botanique dirigé par Otto
Hegg de l'Université de Berne, avec des explications floristiques,
géologiques et pédologiques d'une grande importance.
Délai d'inscription : 30 juin
Prix : CHF 101

Samedi 14 juillet - Lac de Chavonnes
En montant depuis la Forclaz sur Le Sépey, nous nous arrêterons au
bas-marais de la Queue de la Perche avec ses joncs, ses agrostides et ses
linaigrettes. Le deuxième arrêt sera prévu à la Vy Boveyre, marais de
transition miraculeusement conservé, car peu connu, en partie acide et
alcalin. Le Lac de Chavonnes, joyau des Alpes vaudoises, est entouré de
ciberbites, d'adénostyles, de différentes saxifrages et de multiples
fougères. Comme nous serons tous des farouches insatiables, nous monterons
l'après-midi au lac de Bretaye.
Délai d'inscription : 7 juillet
Prix : CHF 34

[Wikimediach-l] TAO governance for WMCH

2011-03-22 Diskussionsfäden charles andres
Dear all,

During the last Year wolf Ludwig has been mandated by the board to assure
the representation of WMCH in the TAO project, and then assure the lead of
two sub-projects.

Last month, Wolf  has been suspended as sub-project leader of the project
TAO for the sub-projects 1 (Community Activities) and 7 (Public Relations /
Community Relations.

The reason of this suspension are mainly due to delays with important
deliverables and a lack of reporting to the WMCH board or the TAO project
coordinator.

The committee reviewed the situation, especially in terms of its self
organization in project management.

As an immediate measure, the board decided to suspend Wolf as a coordinator
for activities of WMCH related to the TAO project , and that I will assure the
interim until the next general meeting.

From now, the board would really appreciate that everyone involved in the
TAO project, thought to keep me informed of any initiative or action, just
to be able to have the big picture. A coordination page has been created on
the WMCH wiki, http://www.wikimedia.ch/Projects/TAO, doesn't hesitate to use
the discussion  page! :-D

Next Sunday morning, a strategic meeting will be held in Bern from 9h30 to
12h30.

The goal of this meeting is the preparation of a precise working program for
the next two year, this will imply a fast review of the past year to be able
to identify the dysfunctions.

This working program will comport two part, one dedicated to the necessary
evolution required for the association, and one dedicated to the activities
in line with the TAO project.

We will present the result of the next meeting during the next General
assembly.


for the board,

If you are interested to be part of the organisation team of this event,
please subscribe on http://www.wikimedia.ch/Wikipedia_Day_2012

  Hi,

  Since 8AM, bluewin.ch, the most visited news portal in Switzerland has
  an article about Wikipedia with a BIG error:

 http://www.bluewin.ch/fr/index.php/1644,365791/Wikip%C3%A9dia_voudrait_se_simplifier_la_vie!/fr/multimedia/http://www.bluewin.ch/fr/index.php/1644,365791/Wikip%C3%A9dia_voudrait_se_simplifier_la_vie%21/fr/multimedia/

  This is the problematic part in French:
   Le modèle financier du site est si robuste qu'il sera quant à lui
  maintenu. Après tout, Wikia, l'entreprise qui possède le site, ne
  vient-elle pas de générer 16 millions de dollars! 

  The good news, it that it seems that this news is only in French.

  I think we should all try to contact the people who have written this
  article soon.

  Dear all,
 
  as indicated before, the start of the TAO project will happen next week
  with Kick-off meetings in Berne. Beat Estermann and I drafted a media
  release for the 26 Oct. / official start what need to be sent next
  Monday PM.
 
  To serve the media in the francophone part (Suisse romande), we urgently
  need a translation of the press release (1.5 pages) over the weekend. Is
  anybody willing or has time to provide this translation?
 
  Please contact me (wolf.lud...@wikimedia.ch) until tomorrow (Saturday
  lunch time) to forward the draft.
 
  Thanks for your support and kind regards,
  Wolf

 Hi Wolf,
 Assuming your original is available in English, I can perform a first
 translation and pass it over to be reviewed.
 Regards,
 Nico
