[Wikimedia-l] Re: Wikimedia Movement Charter ratification voting results

Hi, While I can follow the reasoning behind the concerns about the Charter draft (and I personally share some of these in parts), I still do not understand the reasoning for the proposed next steps (appendix):* Why is there no Movement Charter and no Global Council mentioned in the Appendix as

For the similar German Wikiläum (wiki jubilee), we have such a tool. Right now, it only works for dewiki but as the source code is available on github, you can likely adapt it for nlwiki:https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikiläum https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tool:Wikilaeum https://

Hi all, Please find the WMSUG 2022 report here. Highlights have been the creation of an mailinglist for the group (beyond the stewards internal lists), a test phase for a decision process among stewards and the first participation of the group at a Wikimedia Summit. All of these are signs for an
