Re: [Wikimedia-l] Paid editing and the privacy policy

2016-07-01 Thread Pine W

Hi Nathan,

Differing views about good uses of this list are fine. However, I have an
optimistic view of the ideal uses and benefits of this list, which may
include civil debates and a wide range of meta discussions. Having stated
my views, and wishing to maintain a respectful tone, this is the last email
that I intend to read or send on this thread.

Have a good evening,

Pine

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Paid editing and the privacy policy

2016-07-01 Thread Nathan

Paid editing is addressed in the WMF terms of service and is a problem that
has confronted or will confront most of the prominent projects in the
movement. An alert to an RfC regarding principles of broader import, and a
small amount of linked discussion, seems to be a perfectly reasonable use
of the list. Wikimedia-L need not be only announcements, messages of thanks
and congratulations, and grousing about etiquette or WMF internal politics.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Paid editing and the privacy policy

2016-07-01 Thread Pine W

Yes, it's a very quiet list. However, I'm an advocate of being mindful of
scope. I've long advocated for wiki-specific discussions to happen on the
wiki and/or mailing lists which are best suited to them rather than
Wikimedia-l unless an issue is escalating to a meta-type discussion. This
is one of those discussions that, from my perspective, is best suited for a
different venue. I'm not a list moderator though, so this is just a
request/suggestion.

[Wikimedia-l] Notes on current structure of CE

2016-07-01 Thread Maggie Dennis

Hello, all.

This email gives a brief update on the current structure of the Community
Engagement department of the WMF. :)

As many of you are aware, through over the last few months the Community
Engagement department has been undergoing further reorganization and
transition. While the core work that our teams are doing has been
uninterrupted, we’ve been reviewing the department from the perspective of
reporting structures to make sure that those make sense. One of my goals as
the interim head of Community Engagement is to provide lean, targeted
management support to staff while focusing department resources on
programmatic activities.


Program Capacity & Learning (PC)
 has been
divided into two groups: Learning & Evaluation (L) and Programs. These
groups will continue to deliver on their 2016-17 annual plan commitments,
with cross-team goals being reported at the department rather than team
level.

The Learning & Evaluation team will continue to support learning and
sharing tools for connecting community leaders to one another, to learning
resources, and to capacity development opportunities. L  also works with
other CE teams and across departments within the Wikimedia Foundation to
support good practices, such as improving survey report standards and in
building out the annual planning process. I’m delighted to say that Jaime
Anstee, who has been with the Wikimedia Foundation since 2013 and has been
leading that group since Rosemary Rein’s leave, has agreed to manage that
team permanently. She will report directly to the head of the Community
Engagement department.

The Programs group consists of our team members supporting the Wikipedia
Education Program , GLAM
 and the Wikipedia Library
. Their goal is to
provide community and affiliated groups with the non-monetary resources
they need to succeed in running these core programs, whether those
resources are access to free scholarly reference works, building program
tools, or connecting across communities. The Programs team, with team
managers Tighe Flanagan and Jake Orlowitz, will report to the director of
the expanded Support, Safety and Programs team, which includes the
existing Support
and Safety team .
Support and Safety retains the specialized Trust and Safety subteam managed
by James Alexander. Their work remains unchanged. Combining these teams
aligns reporting structures for many of our activities focused on
supporting targeted non-technical communities and initiatives. We believe a
closer connection between them will help integrate best practices for all
involved.

Two of CE’s other teams are currently untouched: Technical Collaboration
 and Community
Resources . There may
be further small adjustments in coming weeks as we settle into the new
fiscal year, but I’m not anticipating any other major restructuring. We’ll
be updating our Meta pages in the next few weeks, but I wanted to let you
know where we are with that at the moment. :)

Also, we'll schedule another CE office hour after the dust settles from
Wikimania. We'll let you know as soon as a date and time are set.

Best regards,

Maggie

Sorry everyone - we just spotted an error - it was June, not July. Despite
a few eyes on on this it was just noticed now. I'm currently re-editing and
re-uploading. Sorry for the mistake.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Paid editing and the privacy policy

2016-07-01 Thread James Heilman

I believe it is important for the community as a whole to have a
transparent discussion around the issues of privacy and undisclosed
paid promotional editing. The topic is not a single issue of enforcement
but about what rules we wish to put in place and where we wish to draw the
line between the various policies. I disagree with having one or two dozen
editors decide things behind closed doors.

Legal at the WMF has stated "It is not a violation of the Wikimedia privacy
policy for editors to post links to public information about other
editors... Posting links to public information on other sites is a question
of balancing this underlying principle, not a direct violation of the
privacy policy. It's up to community consensus here to decide when the
harassment policy should allow editors to reasonably link to public
information on other sites."

James,

The proper body to ask this question is Ombudsmen Commission.

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ombudsman_commission

Cheers,

[Wikimedia-l] Paid editing and the privacy policy

2016-07-01 Thread James Heilman

Hey All

On the English Wikipedia we are having a RfC regarding what is allowed when
trying to address undisclosed paid promotional editing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Harassment#Can_other_site_accounts_ever_be_linked_to

Specifically we are discussing if this statement is allowed "Here we have
someone who is buying an article on Anthony LaPine. They have already
bought an article on HipLink and this sock created it UserJuliecameo3 who
is already blocked."

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard=679657047#Checking_Elance

Or are no external links to other accounts allowed to be linked to
Wikipedia?
