Invitation to share your ideas on Wikimedia’s Innovation Idea Wall
editDear @Gdarin:
Thank you for being part of our, the Innovation team at Wikimedia Deutschland's, journey in developing a new innovation format for the Movement this far (you can read more about it here:Re-imagining_UNLOCK). As we are moving along with our process, we would love to hear your ideas on how to address the challenges that you have helped us identify – challenges that are keeping us from fostering innovation in our communities.
To facilitate collaborative ideation, we have created an Innovation Idea Wall—a virtual space where you can freely scribble down your ideas whenever you find a moment of inspiration. We believe that by putting together the collective wisdom and creativity of Wikimedians like yourself, we can unlock new possibilities for innovation in our Movement.
To access the Innovation Idea Wall, simply follow this link [1]. You will be directed to our concept board, an online whiteboard, where you will find the instructions on how to get started. We assure you that the process is easy to follow along. In brief, we have formulated some questions that we invite you to brainstorm on – any idea is welcome! Your opinions matter greatly to us, as we firmly believe that Wikimedians possess the firsthand knowledge and expertise needed to identify the necessary improvements in our approach to innovation.
We look forward to watching this Idea Wall grow over the coming weeks. The idea wall will be accessible until July 3rd.

Your block on plwiki
editHi, Gdarin. Regarding with my block on plwiki, the cause of my block is that I restored the machine translation(s). As you mentioned in the summary, I don't even know the language. However, I won't follow the plwiki. Would you consider that unblocking me? --Victor Trevor (talk) 11:54, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
- Hi, again. If I'm not going to be boring, I would also like to explain my reverts. I have made 22 edits and tried to revert the vandalism. The unexplained content removing is generally popular on the projects and mostly needs to be removed - also see. As I explained above, I won't follow the plwiki anymore. Please accept my apologies for the reverts. Thank you. --Victor Trevor (talk) 20:54, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
We need your feedback on a tool from the Wikimedia Summit
edit
Hi! I'm contacting you as one of the participants in the Wikimedia Summit 2022, to kindly ask for your feedback through a 5-10 minute survey to evaluate 'Baserow' (note: the survey is on a Google form).
Baserow was tool through which participants in the Summit co-created a database of Movement Strategy activities. We hope to learn from you how useful it may be to keep using it in the future to help document and connect on Movement Strategy work.
You are welcome and encouraged to fill out the survey in any language. Your feedback would be very appreciated --Abbad (WMF) (talk) 13:04, 16 February 2023 (UTC).
Personal Invitation to the Open Innovation Café of Wikimedia Deutschland
editHello @Gdarin:
This year we are setting out on a journey to build a new format for the Wikimedia Movement, a safe space that will foster innovation and allow members of our community to experiment with and build new ideas for Free Knowledge. This is why we would like to extend a personal invitation to you to join our Open Innovation Café where we want to tell you all about what we are planning and how we would love you to be involved!
We are reaching out to people, affiliate representatives and Wikimedia community members who specifically indicated in some capacity that they are either working on or interested in innovation in the Wikimedia Movement and/or recommendation no. 9 “Innovate in Free Knowledge” of the Movement Strategy 2030. We will be a diverse, international group. The Café will be done in English and will be hosted by us. There is no preparation required, simply drop in as you are.
When and where will the Open Innovation Café take place? We will be running two identical open cafés, so choose the slot and time zone that suits you best:
- Open Innovation Café 1 on Tuesday, March 7th, 10:00-10:30 am CET: Access the Zoom call through this link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86860546924?pwd=UWhGeHVSM1B1NzRybWJtQnEyN3NHdz09 Meeting ID: 868 6054 6924 Passcode: 752756 Add event to your calendar
- Open Innovation Café 2 on Wednesday, March 15th, 6:00-6:30pm CET: Access the Zoom call through this link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86403799400?pwd=R3JLVlpENTlKNHFqQnVJRUpBV3J3QT09 Meeting ID: 864 0379 9400 Passcode: 859211 Add event to your calendar
We look forward to seeing you at the Open Innovation Café and diving deeper into this exciting, pan-Movement endeavor!
--Kannika Thaimai (WMDE) (talk) and Lucia Obst (WMDE) (talk) 14:09, 2 March 2023 (CET). Feel free to reach out to us at unlock@wikimedia.de
- Dear @Gdarin:, We saw that you were not able to make it to our Open Innovation Café, but we have set up a page on Meta-Wiki documenting our Re-Imagining UNLOCK journey. So be sure to have a look at what we are planning and join any future discussions! In short: We are setting up a new innovation format for the WIkimedia Movement, but we cannot do this on our own!
- How can you get involved? We have created a quick 4-question survey (anonymous) that will help us in better understanding the needs and challenges of our Movement in innovating in Free Knowledge. This will form the basis of any new innovation format to take shape in the future. It would be wonderful if you could give us a few minutes of your time as we are grateful for any response.
- Many thanks for being a part of this journey. We are also happy to keep you in the loop of any future developments, outcomes of the survey and the next Open Café! Best wishes,--Lucia Obst (WMDE) (talk) 12:09, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
Personal Invitation to the Open Innovation Café volume 2 of Wikimedia Deutschland
editHello @Gdarin:
We asked – you delivered: After asking all our stakeholders for input through our Open Innovation Café volume 1, a survey and interviews, we have collected the research data and compiled some insightful problem statements. These cover the needs and challenges our Movement faces in innovating in Free Knowledge – quite eye-opening!
Join us at our Open Innovation Café volume 2 to hear about what we have found and how we will use these insights in building a new innovation format for the Wikimedia Movement. Maybe some insights will also be helpful in your community work as well?
