Re: [Wikimedia-l] Looks familiar?

[Trey Jones]

Searching google images for *jigsaw globe* or *jigsaw sphere *gives many
similar images. I don't think Wikipedia owns the rights to the idea of a
sphere made of jigsaw pieces.

The particular image on the cover of that book is derived from a stock
photo:

https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/jigsaw-globe-puzzle-on-white-47983681

So, familiar? Yes. Concern? I don't think so.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Réponse à Samuel Legoff, président de Wikimédia France / Answer to Samuel Legoff, president of Wikimedia France

[Yann Forget]

Hi,

Thanks Thierry for your detailed mail.
I was also thinking to write the board of Wikimedia France regarding the
ongoing crisis.
But your mail expresses my opinion quite well.

The blindness of board members facing the critics is stunning.
The vain and counterproductive attempts of censorship by moderating the
mailing list and then deleting it seem to be from an old past.
The unjustified removal of certain critical members is also unacceptable.
I still hope that the Board will come back on these decisions before it is
too late.

Regards,

Yann Forget

Bonjour,

Merci Thierry pour ce mail long et détaillé.

Je m'apprêtais justement à écrire au CA concernant la crise actuelle que
traverse Wikimédia France.
Mais ton mail remplace avantageusement celui que j'aurais pu faire.

L'aveuglement des membres du CA devant les critiques est sidérant.
Les tentatives vaines et contre-productives de censure en modérant la liste
de discussion, puis en la supprimant semblent d'un autre temps.
La radiation sans motif valable de certains adhérents critiques est aussi
inacceptables.
J'espère encore que le CA reviendra sur ces décisions avant qu'il ne soit
trop tard.

Cordialement,

Yann Forget

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Réponse à Samuel Legoff, président de Wikimédia France / Answer to Samuel Legoff, president of Wikimedia France

[Natacha Rault]

Bonjour,

Merci pour ce long (et éclairant mail) qui nous sort de l'atmosphère délétère  
des menaces de poursuites judiciaires en nous faisant entrevoir la légalité de 
la libre expression! 

J'ai reçu un mail du CA m'informant que la raison de mon expulsion de 
l'association est le fait d'avoir tweeté avec les hashtag "#wmfrgate". 
Je pense que dans la situation actuelle de censure des listes de discussions, 
les membres et la communauté avaient le droit de savoir ce qui ce passe.

L'autre chose qui m'est reproché par le président, c'est de faire partie d'une 
bande de harceleurs - qu'il refuse de nommer - et d'en coordonner l'action.

Je me permet de relever la dernière phrase de ton mail qui me semble 
importante: 

> "je
> suggère que toi, Samuel, en tant que président de Wikimédia France tu
> permettes à tout ancien ou actuel salarié de pouvoir témoigner librement,
> donc de délivrer de la clause de confidentialité ceux qui en ont signé et
> que tu t'engages formellement à ce qu'aucun salarié actuel ou passé ne
> subisse de mesures de rétorsion suite au témoignage qu'il pourrait faire
> devant les auditeurs."

À ceci on devrait ajouter, pour le président, la garantie qu'il sera assisté et 
soutenu s'il 
reprend fermement et rapidement la fonction RH. Je ne doute pas qu'il ai 
essayé, il faut qu'il persévère, et il ne peut pas y arriver seul. 


Bonne journée,

Natacha / Nattes à chat

Re: [Wikimedia-l] July 14: Strategy update - New Voices research, events, and interviews (#21)

[Pine W]

I have a few comments here. These aren't directed personally to Katherine;
this is more like "Pine thinking out loud".

I have am grateful for the depth and breadth of discussions that are
happening in the strategy process. The depth and breadth are more extensive
than I anticipated.

I am uncertain about how the end product will look -- I think that everyone
is -- and I continue to be cautious about spending so much money and time
on developing strategic goals and a strategic plan. Still, I am hopeful
that the end product will be useful.

However, there is still the matter of the financing of the extension of the
grant, and so far the lack of answers about how much it is costing and the
other matters that I raised in my previous emails. I am hoping that WMF
will choose to be cooperative with these inquiries. It seems to me that WMF
should make efforts to set a good example of financial transparency.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] July 14: Strategy update - New Voices research, events, and interviews (#21)

[James Salsman]

Hi Katherine,

In March, the topics that the Movement Strategy process described as
to be addressed included metrics:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017/Topics/Metrics

However, since then the topics list on which metrics were listed have
been removed from all but eight languages' process briefing pages.

Are movement metrics still planned for inclusion in the strategy process?

Best regards,
Jim
