Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Deryck Chan]

Hello this is Deryck who founded CUWPS just over a year ago.

Most Cambridge University societies exist legally as subsidiary groups of
Cambridge University Students' Union (or, for the big ones, as an
independent legal person), but not CUWPS. My successors did get perplexed
when I chose not to officially "register" CUWPS to the Cambridge University
Societies Syndicate.

If a legal status must be asserted, CUWPS is officially a subsidiary group
of WMUK without its own legal person. The main reason, that I chose to make
CUWPS (nominally) a subsidiary of WMUK rather than CUSU, is that I don't
need to manage a separate budget and accounts. Easier trademark use is also
a minor consideration.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Richard Symonds]

Harry,

This is a good question. There are a few points:

   - Firstly, these student societies will be set up by (and supported by)
   the Chapter, and it's very unlikely that they would be legal entities
   themselves - instead, they would be semi-formal groups with small budgets
   that meet from time to time. These societies would fall under the aegis of
   WMUK as far as the WMF is concerned, rather than being seen as a 'third
   party'.
   - Secondly, these groups would probably rely on WMUK for publicity
   materials and funds for most, if not all, of their events. WMUK is
   permitted to use its funds for any charitable purpose it sees fit, and WMUK
   is also permitted to use Wikimedia marks in all of its related activities.
   As a result, any funds and materials we give to the society would be just
   the same as us giving funds or materials to a museum - or an individual
   volunteer - to run an event about Wikipedia. This is not something we need
   permission for from the WMF.
   - Finally, student societies are not something that the WMF really want
   to worry about. They are very small, semi-formal or informal, non-profit
   groups with very little reach beyond their specific local area. The two
   societies that have been running so far are ones that the WMF is aware of,
   and they have raised no concerns or problems with their activities over the
   past two years (to either them or us). We'll continue to keep them
   informed, of course, and if the WMF thinks that a particular student
   society has become to big, and now does need a specific agreement, we'll be
   more than happy to assist both parties in any way we can.

As Chris says, lots of folks are at Wikimania now, so if anyone has any
specific questions, feel free to email me and I'll try and get some answers.

Many thanks, though, Harry, for bringing this up - it's important that
we're thorough.

If there is anything we need to clarify with the Foundation, some of us
will be seeing them at Wikimania over the next few days, happy to ask
questions!

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Harry Burt]

Thank you.

Which part of the trademark policy covers this? My own reading was
from == Things You Can Do, a Summary ==, which does not give any
examples related to third parties such as student societies (only
second parties, the chapters themselves).

Harry

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Stevie Benton]

Hello everyone,

We've looked in to this a bit more deeply, and as long as the student
society is associated (or affiliated) with Wikimedia UK and isn't selling
any products then there's no need to seek permission to use the marks. The
Trademark Policy at http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Trademark_policy is
the key document here and is quite clear on this, thankfully.

We're on good terms with the WMF, so if there are any trademark issues that
the WMF contacts a student group about, try and let us know, and we can get
in touch with the WMF during work hours and smooth over any difficulties.

I hope this is useful,

Stevie

was that it may: a hurdle, if not a large one. Usefully, then, WMUK could
seek some clarification in this area, just to keep the burden on volunteers

[Wikimediauk-l] Student societies 2013 campaign

[Toni Sant]

As many subscriber to this mailing list will already know, Wikimedia UK is
keen to support student
societiestowards a
better understanding and improvement of Wikipedia and its sister
projects. We are currently looking for a volunteer to help me develop a
strategic plan we've drafted for reaching out to university student unions
across the UK. This work relates to WMUK's developing efforts to support
Student Societies focused on editing Wikipedia and other Wikimedia
projects; it essentially involves an intensive period of concentrated
effort to reach out to potential new student societies. Details available
