"Need for training, technical, legal and project management support. Most volunteers can write articles, but do not have the technical skills to set up or manage the project."
Best: "Clear outcome for all involved parts. A list of monuments or an uploaded collection is a clear outcome. Money that does not have a decided use is not a clear outcome. Second best: Indirect outcome can be a dataset and resources to hire someone to build a list to be used for a photo contest. Third: Not really clear what should be done or who should do it, trying to avoid these partnerships."
"Showcase material and good examples to show impact. Need to build internal capacity before reaching out further. Diversifying knowledge within the UG to offer more to partners. Resources to build up a strong offer to partners."
"Clear expectations and agreements about what should be done and who can do what."
"In order for a partnership to be successful, it is necessary to present to them the benefits that they will have from the achieved cooperation. Communication should be open, up-to-date, regularly informing them about the achieved results and progress of the project."
"Partnership champion who can run projects and partnerships. Tech support in building templates, data clean up and such."
"Project management training in order to run collaborations better. Both how to negotiate and implement projects, but also how to write contracts and how to avoid conflicts and sort out when projects don’t go as planned."
"Being able to recruit people to add content to the projects. Partnering with other chapters to collaborate on Wikidata. Working together to get more out of the collaborations. Get training on working with Wikidata."
To be able to practice together in the situations that arise is a good way to solve problems.
"Better coordination between chapters/user groups/communities to help each other and plan for future and current partnerships. Better cooperation with the Commons community for discussions in license questions or deletion discussions."
"Setting up a network within the movement for partnerships. Both regional and wider areas need to be connected. Building a family for support when problems arise or when questions need to be sorted out. The community is both volunteers and staff, and we should network and build on that."
"Having access to a hotline where help and hands could be provided. Getting extra eyes to look at scripts and meta data matching to see if things could be done in a better way or with smarter tools. Formal/informal mentorship to get knowledge transfer going between community members. Both central and distributed points of contacts and list of ongoing projects."

The tools for uploads and other related content partnerships tools must work. It has been clear that this is one of the most important parts of the relationship with the partners.
"The ability to do mass uploads and to have the possibility to work with programmers. Work with data for example places. “Round-tripping” - for example, an institution provides content or data, and can use the Wikimedia infrastructure to enable their project, analysis or content presentation."
"Some technical help to make tools easier to work with. Some way to find help from other chapters when WMF is busy and unable to provide enough support or grants on time. Building relations with chapters through other projects like WikiGap and contacts found during Wikimedia Summit and such events."
"An enthusiastic marketing person who will act as an intermediary to unlock photo collections and convince professional photographers to sign over copyright – they will already have a relationship with people in the area being covered."
"Case in point: Pattypan. A wonderful tool, and invaluable, but riddled with bugs and not supporting structured data. Need a full-time developer to make it polished but I’ve heard it will no longer be supported."
"Some helpful tools exist, but more support is needed to help better on how to use them. Setting up community support packages with recorder and computer to allow for recording languages for Lingua Libre."
"Support in training from experienced chapters within the movement in doing uploads and other technical stuff. Learning how to run all parts of projects. Looking at different databases with open APIs. Having the hub help connect data to Wikidata would be great."
