Sunday January 10 Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network meeting

Into the blue.

The Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network (SWAN) is a developing forum for all Wikimedia movement affiliates to share ideas on the Wikimedia 2030 strategy process. It expands on the model of the All-Affiliates Brand Meeting to help lay some of the groundwork for a future Global Council.

Following up on the August, September, October, and November SWAN meetings, and June's All-Affiliates Brand Meeting, as well as strategic and outreach topics of mutual concern to all affiliates including SWAN input on Interim Global Council and Movement Charter, this month we are meeting on Sunday January 10, and you are all invited to RSVP here.

To start the exchange of ideas on the IGC early, and to help prepare before the SWAN calls, we have set up and invite everyone to participate at this etherpad. If you like a more interactive way of discussing, we have also made a jamboard. Check here for more details.

Closing date for Portuguese facilitator

Hi Qgil. I don't see a closing date for the facilitator position that you posted aboout on ptwiki. Could you tell me if this is closed or still ongoing? Thanks. Best regards, Rui Gabriel Correia (talk) 22:08, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi @Rui Gabriel Correia, thank you for your interest in this role. Usually job posts don't have a deadline, as they remain open until the hiring manager decides that has a good pool of candidates. In the case of this facilitator for Portuguese language, the gate is still open but I recommend you to apply this week if possible. Qgil-WMF (talk) 10:10, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

Tardy selectors

Hi Quim. Hope you're doing well. If you're not the right person for this enquiry please let me know and I will try someone else. Anyhow I'm wondering if there is anything being done to ensure all selector rankings are in before wiki voting results are revealed to ensure that all groups are acting simultaneously and to keep the process fair for all. Thanks and best, Barkeep49 (talk) 21:45, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi Qgil, I wanted to bump this and say I agree wholeheartedly with Barkeep49 above; let me know if there's anything I can assist with. Best, KevinL (aka L235 · t) 22:31, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for raising the issue and for the ping! I have responded to the points raised on a more public talk page here. --KVaidla (WMF) (talk) 19:32, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
