Future plans
This page is outdated, but if it was updated, it might still be useful. Please help by correcting, augmenting and revising the text into an up-to-date form. Note: At least the SUL part seems to have been done in early November 2021. |
The Wikimedia Foundation Communications department is working on a future setup for Governance Wiki which will:
- Allow login to the wiki via the Single User Login (SUL) setup
- Allow any registered accounts to edit talk pages to facilitate discussions of wiki content
- Allow any registered account to translate content on the wiki
- Restrict editing in main namespaces to approved staff accounts
Goals of future plans
The primary goals of these changes are to:
- Allow for increased participation by already engaged community members than current setup on Governance Wiki permits
- Facilitate discussion of content on Governance Wiki
- Eliminate usage of unique accounts on Governance Wiki and allow Single User Login (SUL)
- Allow for translation of Governance Wiki content into languages other than English
- Reduce number of duplicate pages on Meta-Wiki of Governance Wiki pages which were created to facilitate discussions or translations
- Limited liability of editing wiki content to Wikimedia Foundation
Scope
The wiki's content includes Wikimedia Foundation governance and legal materials, such as:
- Board of Trustees documentation
- Minutes
- Resolutions
- Legal documentation
- Security documentation
- Policies approved by the Board of Trustees or Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director
