Annual Wikimedia Foundation Wishlist Survey

edit

The Community Wishlist Survey is an opportunity for the Wikimedia Community to propose and vote on wishes to be enacted by the Wikimedia Foundation. Wishes must be of the sort which can reasonably be granted within a year. The Wikimedia Foundation attempts to grant the top 10 wishes.

In 2024, the Community Wishlist Survey was renamed as the Community Wishlist.
