Tasa-arvovaltuutetun lausunto 2024 aiheesta deadname Wikipediassa[muokkaa wikitekstiä]

Huomasin, että Suomen tasa-arvovaltuutettu on antanut lausunnon otsikolla "Sukupuoli-identiteettiä koskeva tieto Wikipediassa)" (TAS/525/2023, annettu 22.01.2024). Asia koskee haamunimeä eli "deadnamea". Panen linkin myös artikkelikeskusteluun. --Pxos (keskustelu) 12. maaliskuuta 2024 kello 12.40 (EET)[vastaa]

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees 2024 Selection[muokkaa wikitekstiä]

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

Dear all,

This year, the term of 4 (four) Community- and Affiliate-selected Trustees on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees will come to an end [1]. The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats.

The Elections Committee will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Board Governance Committee created a Board Selection Working Group from Trustees who cannot be candidates in the 2024 community- and affiliate-selected trustee selection process composed of Dariusz Jemielniak, Nataliia Tymkiv, Esra'a Al Shafei, Kathy Collins, and Shani Evenstein Sigalov [3]. The group is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2024 trustee selection process, and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4].

Here are the key planned dates:

  • May 2024: Call for candidates and call for questions
  • June 2024: Affiliates vote to shortlist 12 candidates (no shortlisting if 15 or less candidates apply) [5]
  • June-August 2024: Campaign period
  • End of August / beginning of September 2024: Two-week community voting period
  • October–November 2024: Background check of selected candidates
  • Board's Meeting in December 2024: New trustees seated

Learn more about the 2024 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on this Meta-wiki page, and make your plan.

Election Volunteers

Another way to be involved with the 2024 selection process is to be an Election Volunteer. Election Volunteers are a bridge between the Elections Committee and their respective community. They help ensure their community is represented and mobilize them to vote. Learn more about the program and how to join on this Meta-wiki page.

Best regards,

Dariusz Jemielniak (Governance Committee Chair, Board Selection Working Group)

[5] Even though the ideal number is 12 candidates for 4 open seats, the shortlisting process will be triggered if there are more than 15 candidates because the 1-3 candidates that are removed might feel ostracized and it would be a lot of work for affiliates to carry out the shortlisting process to only eliminate 1-3 candidates from the candidate list.

Iltalehden artikkeli Samu Haberista[muokkaa wikitekstiä]

Onkohan tässä artikkelissa mainittu tieto peräisin Wikipediasta, vai onko taas sekoitettu Wikipedia ja Internet keskenään niinkuin Seela Sellan tapauksessa. --HenriHa (keskustelu) 17. huhtikuuta 2024 kello 12.51 (EEST)[vastaa]

Jostain Haber-artikkelin historiasta löysin maininnan pituudesta, mutta siinä oli 190 cm. En jaksanut kelata sitä muokkaushistoriaa kokonaan läpi alusta asti, mutta ainakin tuo tieto siellä on joskus ollut. Voi se puuttuva kolme senttiäkin jostain löytyä.-- Htm (keskustelu) 17. huhtikuuta 2024 kello 12.54 (EEST)[vastaa]
