It doesn't really mean anything for the ordinary Wikipedian. The ordinary Wikipedian doesn't even need to know the Wikimedia Foundation exists or about any of its staff members. For the ordinary Wikipedian who is a bit more involved in "meta-organization" like you probably are, it just means that Philippe, Maggie, and other members of this "Advocacy Department" are your points of contact if you need anything from the Wikimedia Foundation. You can ask them questions, give them feedback that you don't know who else to give to, etc. Their roles have already existed, and these staff members have already been in place, what's happening now is just an organizational reshuffle that puts them into their own department. -- Casey Brown Cbrown1023 _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
