Greetings! At last month's metrics and activities meeting, the Wikimedia Foundation Communications department gave an update on the logistics of the actual meeting itself and put out a call for your feedback.[1] The department has been working over the past year to help determine what the next evolution of the meeting should be, and have taken steps to expand the meeting for an audience beyond just people within the Foundation.
Thank you to everyone that has already emailed us with feedback! We will continue to collect feedback over the coming months, and we have also posted a Meta-Wiki page to collect feedback if you would prefer to post it on-wiki.[2] Based on the feedback we have already received, we have added some additional pages on Meta-Wiki to help with communications around the meeting: 1. A page that outlines the basic process the Communications department follows in planning the meeting.[3] 2. A page for you to request or suggest future meeting topics.[4] The most common question I receive about this meeting is from people interested in presenting, or with a suggestion for a highlight to mention. So, I want to point out that the new future meetings page is now our preferred location for making those suggestions and requests.[4] Keeping them in that central on-wiki location will help us with tracking requests and long-term planning. Again, we appreciate all of the feedback, and hope that you will join us for future meetings (or check out past recordings) as we continue to experiment and make adjustments. -greg [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_metrics_and_activities_meetings/2018-02 [2] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_metrics_and_activities_meetings/Request_for_comments_-_2018 [3] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_metrics_and_activities_meetings/Process [4] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_metrics_and_activities_meetings/Future_meetings -- Gregory Varnum Communications Strategist Wikimedia Foundation <http://www.wikimediafoundation.org> gvar...@wikimedia.org Pronouns: He/His/Him _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
