帮忙组织2022维基媒体国际会议!

2022年,维基媒体国际会议将以远程会议为主,如果当地和世界情况允许,也包含去中心化的线下见面部分。和2021年会议类似,年会将在WMF职员支持下,由志愿者组成的全域核心团队组织。该团队会组织线上会议,并开发灵活而适时的资源,以便社群根据各自的情况和精力单独组织线下聚会。

您可以申请成为2022维基媒体国际会议核心组织团队的一员,也可以选择其他志愿者职位提供帮助——无论是短期还是长期。我们邀请您加入我们,协助办好这场由社群举办、面向社群的代表性活动。

规划和组织年会是一个很好的机会,能让您认识来自世界各地的维基人并与之合作。组织团队需要在整个会议过程中积极合作、交流以及提出解决方案的人员。我们需要各种各样的能力:从交际之星,到管理和后勤工作爱好者,再到维基专家等等。如果您有过组织活动的经验,无论是线下还是线上,或者有兴趣在未来组织维基媒体国际活动,我们需要你!

下文将详细介绍组织团队将做什么事,以及我们什么岗位需要人。

您可以参与许多方面并提供帮助:

  1. 成为组织团队的一员
  2. 成为支持性工作组的成员(项目程序、赞助金或活动期间的活动等)——我们鼓励那些可能无法加入核心组织团队(COT,见下文)的人申请这些角色。
  3. 稍后,我们将征集有关参与线下活动的建议,这将在核心组织团队成立后开始。您已经可以开始考虑组织一次线下的维基媒体会议了。更多的信息将在后续公布。

您需承诺每周平均花费5到7个小时,但这在活动前期可能会有所增加。您还需要参与异步沟通,准备会议,审查文件和跟进其他具体的任务。

Background on volunteer roles

Core organizing team

Tell me more about the COT?

核心组织团队(COT)会是一个负责组织整个会议的小团队,大约由6-15名志愿者组成,由维基媒体指导委员会和维基媒体基金会的一组职员提供支持。

如前所述,我们也非常欢迎在其他方面帮忙的志愿者。

The Core Organizing Team: The Basics

To organize Wikimania 2022, we need help from community members around the world to form an international Core Organizing Team (COT) to lead:

  • Programming: reviewing session submissions, selecting sessions, building program tracks, communicating with speakers.
  • Scholarships: reviewing and approving scholarship applications, ensuring funds make it to scholarship recipients, answering questions related to use of scholarships, overseeing impact of scholarships.
  • Social events and entertainment program: establishing the entertainment section of the conference program and (co)organizing social activities with communities
  • Communication, including outreach and social media: creating and publishing communications content about Wikimania.
  • On-wiki content management: designing and updating the content on the Wikimania wiki
  • Safety support during the event: covering Trust and Safety protocol, moderating chats and notetaking, triaging support requests

What does the commitment look like?

To be part of the Core Organizing Team for Wikimania you need to be able to commit to approximately 5 hours of weekly participation and preparation from February to August, 2022.

The Foundation will be offering stipends to cover the cost of COT members’ time coordinating Wikimania, covering things such as occasional childcare, food for meetings and reasonable associated costs. The process for paying out stipends, as well as the exact amount, are currently being discussed. Active core team members will receive a full scholarship (travel, lodging, registration fees) to attend another major in person Wikimedia event.

  • Create and manage the call for program contributions

Other roles

Want to help organize Wikimania in other ways?

If you’re interested in supporting Wikimania but can’t commit to the Core Organizing Team, we still want to hear from you! There will be additional calls for volunteers in other roles, both leading up to and during the event. These include helping with communications, program, trust and safety, and more.
