必須の設問
ウィキメディア財団の理事選挙に立候補した理由は? あなたはどんな面で貢献できますか? もっと知りたいと思っているのはどんなことですか? 私が理事会に立候補したのは、無償の知識への貢献をより実践的に行いたいからです。これまでウィキメディアのプロジェクト群に貢献してきたものの、ウィキメディアの理事の1人に選出されると編集活動に限定されず、私にとっては解決策を提案したり、直接、財団を支えたりすることがもっと実行しやすくなります。

私はまた何事にも全力を尽くす熱心なタイプです。私のエネルギッシュな雰囲気は周りに影響するので、理事会にも持ち込むつもりです。

ウィキメディアにおける経験を説明してください(ウィキメディアのどんなプロジェクトで編集したか、ウィキメディアのどの提携団体や組織に登録しているか、ウィキメディア運動で主催する活動、あるいはウィキメディア運動に賛同する外部の団体に参加しているなど)。 私は活動中のウィキペディア編集者で、英語版ウィキペディアでは編集合計2660回、新規記事101件を立項した実績があります。

私は2023年にオンド州(ナイジェリア)で「アクレにおけるウィキメディアの普及」プロジェクトを主導しました。同プロジェクトはウィキペディアとその姉妹プロジェクトの認知度をアクレで高めようと目指しました。プロジェクト期間1ヵ月の終了時には編集者110名による記事の改訂は510件を数え、「アクレのウィキメディア編集者」というグループが立ち上がりました(Wikimedia Editors in Akure)。

上記に加え、7ヵ月前、気候と環境問題の認識に関するプロジェクト「気象ウィキのキャンパスツアー・ナイジェリア」という、ナイジェリアの6つの機関が参加するプロジェクトで私は中核の主催者の1人でした。( "WikiClimate Campus Tour Nigeria" Project)

同プロジェクトは終了時に編集者324人が集まり、ウィキペディアの記事1907件を編集、ウィキデータに新規項目を209件、立項しました。 「気象ウィキのキャンパスツアー・ナイジェリア企画」の影響を示すリンク("Wikiclimate Campus Tour Nigeria Project"): パートナー関係および実務チーム

現在、私はウィキプロジェクト医療の理事の一人です。

皆さんから見て、ウィキメディア財団は今後の5-10年間に何を優先すると良いか、それがいちばん重要だと考える理由は何か、教えていただけませんか? ウィキメディア財団はウィキペディアのあまり機能していない姉妹プロジェクトへの貢献を優先すべきで、例えばウィキファンクションズやウィキスピーシーズなどがあります。この理由として常にウィキペディアを重視してきたことと、世界を動かして「世界中の人々が教育コンテンツを無償のライセンスまたはパブリック・ドメインで収集および開発し、それを効果的かつグローバルに普及できるように支援および関与する」という使命を果たすべき時期が来ているためです。
Optional questions - Professional Experience, Skills and Education
Please describe your experience with governing bodies of organizations (nonprofit or for-profit), mentioning the scope of your responsibilities, as well as the complexity of the organization (in terms of scale of operations, budget, number of people involved, or other meaningful measures) and the size of the board or body. I am the first female President of an indigenous association; National Association of Ondo State students, (NAOSS) Unilorin Chapter a small scale association with less than 300 members where I direct the activities of the members, seek for donations and ensure peace among the members.
Please describe your professional career experience. I am the CEO of Mira Sight Foundation founded in 2022, an NGO focused on prevention of blindness and creating awareness about eye. The foundation has about 4 board members who chaired her activities. My role as the founder and CEO is to oversee the activities of the Foundation, last year through donation, I was able to secure free eye screening and free drugs as well as glasses for about 500 students and staffs of a public school.
Please briefly describe 3 situations that show how you tackled, or advised others on, a complex problem in an organization. How did you work with others to address the situations? 1. This made me remember how I transform the abandoned toilet at my physical store to a usable one by simply getting a cheap door lock while speaking to few other vendors who contributed money to clean up the place.

Nobody appointed me the Health Manager of my store, nor was I place in charge of the place officially, however. I took it upon myself to see to the cleanliness of the place.

2. I was able to stay calm when the card of the association I lead was stucked in the ATM during an event.

Please describe your educational background, including degrees, certificates, and courses of study finished, and their relevance to board work. I have a college certificate with credit in 9 courses.

I am an optometrist In view in the University of Ilorin, Nigeria with just few month to my induction and board exam. I am currently working on a project to shows the relationship between myopia, a refractive error and intraocular pressure of the eye.

I have certificate in grant writing and software development.

Also, I recently earned the Wikimedia Foundation badge for completing the Boad of trustees pre-boarding training on Wikilearn.

All these will be useful in working as a board of trustee of wikimedia foundation

Please add any relevant links describing your professional background, experience, profile (such as LinkedIn, staff page, etc.). www.linkedin.com/in/tesleemah-abdulkareem
Optional questions - Leadership Experience
Please describe ways in which you have helped to form a bridge between multiple communities (such as by working on projects outside your home wiki, or working on a collaboration between multiple affiliates). I have bridged gap between multiple communities within wikimedia foundation by organizing events on the English Wikipedia such as the 'Wikimedia Awareness in Akure', the most recent of such bridge is the event I am currently championing 'Wiki And Health articles in Nigeria' for medical editors in Nigeria and collaboration with Wiki Project Medicine where the chair, Dr James Heilman is an advisor.
Can you describe a policy, on wiki or off, that you helped to create or change? What did you learn from this experience? One policy I once incorporated was during an edit-a-thon, myself and three other wikimedia editors set up a WhatsApp platform where we discussed how the organizers will release the gift for winners. While I chaired the committee, we concluded on how best to approach the person in charge and it was productive at the end of the day with the gifts released to the winners.

What I gave learnt from the experience is to work collectively with others to fight for good cause.

How have you been able to empower people to make their voices heard? I have actively involved members of my community in Nigeria when organising events. Recently, I led a project, Wiki and Health articles in Nigeria, a project that brought medical professionals into limelight and they were recruited to edit medical contents on wiki projects. Also, I share links to resources as well as trainings. One of the notable one was Organizer lab, after I finished with the cohort 1.even though, only few were selected for the second cohort. I'm glad the members in my community gave it their best shot.
Sometimes in professional situations, there are personality conflicts. Explain how you remain productive even with personality conflicts. I'm the strict to business type, even if you are not the best person in term of the way you relate with others. I focus on how jobs can be done without issues hence I focus on the good sides of others, this make it easy to overlook the flaws of others.

In summary, I remain productive in case of personality conflicts in a professional settings by figuring out the best in others and keeping my emotions in check.

Optional questions - Strategic Thinking
Where do you see the need for greater diversity in the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees or within the movement? What steps would you take to improve diversity on the Board or within the movement? What steps would you recommend the Board take to improve diversity? Going through the list of past and present, I do not noticed board of trustees from Africa or Nigeria at large however I'm not sure this is the foundation's fault as election of board of trustees as always been thrown open however this could be due to lack of information due to underrepresentation of the black continent.

This is why I'm presenting myself to elected as a board member.
