[Wikimediauk-l] Re: Wikimedia UK recruiting for a new Chair of Trustees

I agree. Experience cautions against expectations of perfection as our hopes and dreams often become victims of cold reality. I think it is our friend Katie who says that experience is a good school, but one for which the fees are high. She is proven to be correct, time and time again. On Tue, May

[Wikimediauk-l] Re: Wikimedia UK recruiting for a new Chair of Trustees

I really didn't want to get involved in this, but I'm impulsive. However, my impulsiveness and my prudence have agreed that all I will do is acknowledge that, yes, the Chair of any charity is a special role with special responsibilities.I encourage members to think about that. On Tue, May 25, 2021

Hi Lucy, Thanks for sharing. I just wanted to take the time to thank Nick for his many years of service. His commitment to open knowledge is especially clear to anyone who follows him on Twitter, as I do. His passion and enthusiasm are admirable, his knowledge fearsome. Thank you, Mr Poole. Good l

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] UK chapter membership numbers

Exactly what Katie says. The chapter can't win here. It gets criticised if membership doesn't grow because some see it as a kind of failure. Then, when the chapter grows its membership it is seen as some kind of entryist threat. I find it particularly notable that these criticisms come from the sam
