Sitenotice translation

Did you figure out how to translate the notice? -- sj | translate | + 20:30, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Ah, I see - you posted in the right place. -- sj | translate | +

I Actually put it in the talk page but a good soul moved it to the correct place. Is there a mailing list or a message bot where i can sign to get notifications about messages waiting to be translated? תומר א. 21:15, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Uploading free media

Please upload free media to Wikimedia Commons instead of Meta. File:Tomersnewrole.ogg will probably be deleted soon. Mathonius (talk) 20:32, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

This file is related to a discussion being held here and has no significance outside this discussion. If needed, I will ask for it's deletion myself when we'll finish. Tomer A. 20:33, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

Don't worry, the file won't be deleted and it's within Meta's scope. Cheers, Nemo 14:06, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks

I really loved your comments on Talk:Fundraising and Funds Dissemination/Final recommendations from Sue and the links you gave. The point about WMCC is key, IMHO. --Nemo 14:06, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

Re: Chapters council

Hi Tomer. Sure, I am frequently on IRC as solstag, usually on #wikipedia-pt or #wikimedia-br. If you prefer, tell me some time that's good for you and I'll try to be there. I'm sorry that I've been absent from that discussion and haven't yet answered comments on the page. Hugs, --Solstag (talk) 02:40, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

Hello Tomer! I saw on the website that there's a pre-wikimania chapters event, concurrent with the hackathon. Is that the one you were talking about regarding the chapter association? I thought it was going to be during Wikimania. About what we talked, up to now, despite some good discussion, we haven't figured if we'll participate - those who are not against the idea of an association are indifferent, and many were worried we would once again not be welcome to voice our concerns, just like it happened earlier this year during the chapters meeting in Berlin - when our volunteer requested but was refused the opportunity to contribute when participants' opinions were collected in writing (that came up during the discussion). But, depending on the time, me and another guy might be interested in showing up, to keep us up to date on the facts and hopefully contribute to the discussion. Hugs, --Solstag (talk) 01:57, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Yes, this is the one. Per the initial decision in Berlin it is to be held on the 11th. I am not aware that your volunteer was not allowed to contribute his thought. However, that meeting was not conducted by me so it did not reflect my understanding on how things should be done. I am not going to be there (visa issues) but the meeting is going to be open for everyone. Cheers. Tomer A. -- Talk 15:01, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Iron law of oligarchy update

As a followup of your mention of the "iron law of oligarchy", I think this is worth noting: Talk:Wikimedia budget#"the WMF annual plan covers the entire movement". You don't need an organization for an oligarchy to emerge: just a concept, like "Wikimedia movement", is enough for the formerly free "electrons" (individuals or groups) to be all caught together and taken over by whoever is willing and powerful enough to claim ownership of the concept itself. --Nemo 06:16, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

I don't think I ever claimed otherwise. Tomer A. -- Talk 15:43, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

It's also funny to see how now the law is explicitly mandatory: FDC criteria include a "stable leadership". --Nemo 07:35, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Questions for FDC candidates

Hi :-) thank you for putting yourself forward for the FDC. I want to draw your attention to the list of questions that people can answer to help the Board of Trustees learn more about the people volunteering for the committee. [1] Look forward to seeing your answers. Sydney Poore/--FloNight (talk) 22:06, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. Tomer A. -- Talk 22:15, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Your comments are invited on four current FDC proposals

Hello! As you may know, we've opened the community review period for the current funding round in the Funds Dissemination Committee process. I noticed that in the past you expressed interest in the FDC, since you were a nominee for the committee. I'd like to invite you to review the 4 proposals (totaling $1.3 million USD) that were submitted to the FDC, and to ask questions and share comments about those proposals. You can help to ensure that they have high potential for impact regarding the movement's goals. The FDC especially values comments by community members and will take them into account when they prepare their recommendations. Let me know if you have any questions! --Katy Love, Senior Program Officer, Funds Dissemination Committee, Wikimedia Foundation, 22:36, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
