Notes
[edit]- Group contacts
- number of group contacts / primary group contact, secondary? (in part, I think WMF wants it as a backup if the primary is unavailable) -> ask questions to MKaur (WMF) -> answers
- Selection process:
- 2 weeks notice;
- vote on meta;
- announce notice period at next wikibase meeting;
- ranked or approval votes? Like affiliate board position votes? Will investigate what others use.
- Report
- Collaborative writing by the user group
- 2020: cleaning to keep only activities of the user group -> Envel Done
- Scour telegram and mailing list for any additions directly related to the group. eg. dev help, wikibase registry
- Community members encouraged to add their projects in the future when relevant; and related discussions on desired features, discussion platform -> potentially justifies WMF/WMDE contributions/assistance to group.
- Next steps
- Questions to Manav -> Envel Done
- Set up meta page for user contacts voting – have people nominate themselves. -> GreenReaper Done - created draft election plan, suggest ratification at the 2021-06-24 meeting prior to nominations.
- Announce nomination process to the group via Telegram / Mailing list / Next meeting / Meta -> Envel Waiting for the set up by GreenReaper
- Announce collaborative writing activities on report to the group via Telegram / Mailing list / Next meeting / Meta -> Lozana Done
- At the end of the meeting, a question was raised about the usage of Telegram, which can be difficult due to some corporate policies.
