Strategic priorities
The PEG program has specific strategic goals as part of Wikimedia’s mission and broader strategic priorities. Alignment to these goals is a key criterion in the decision-making process. For key metrics of success associated with these strategic priorities, please see the PEG Program Resources.
Increasing reach edit
Will this project/program increase the number of people reading Wikipedia globally? For example:
- Higher impact potential
- Creating partnerships to target offline populations (e.g. offline Wikipedia distribution)
- Presenting at conferences with a targeted audience (e.g. FLOSS)
- Lower impact potential
- Spreading the word about Wikimedia projects to a general audience with no follow-up (e.g. book fairs, cultural events)
Increasing participation edit
Will this project/program increase the number of editors? For example:
- Higher impact potential (e.g. active editors)
- Improving editor diversity by recruiting new editors from a target group (e.g. women, global south, new expertise/niche)
- Onboarding and educating new editors with a plan for follow-up and mentorship (e.g. workshop and edit-a-thon series)
- Lower impact potential
- Recruiting new contributors whose participation is limited to the event (e.g. contest contributors, "Wiki Loves" competitions)
- Introducing people to editing without explicit follow-up (e.g., some one-off edit-a-thons or workshops)
Increasing quality edit
Will this project/program increase the amount of high-quality content on WMF projects? For example:
- Higher impact potential
- Increasing accessibility to reliable sources for editors (e.g. GLAM, digitization projects)
- Increasing participation by subject matter experts to perform surface and in-depth reviews
- Active interest-group collaboration on identifying articles for improvement (e.g. partnerships with cultural and learning institutions, under-represented groups)
- Topic-specific online writing competitions
- Photo events with associated edit-a-thons focused on integrating media on wiki projects
- Lower impact potential
- Stand-alone photo competitions with no integration activities
