The Movement communications group (MoveCom) is a mailing list for members of the Wikimedia movement engaged in communications efforts either with Wikimedia projects or movement affiliates.
The aim of the group is to support communications efforts and collaborations across the Wikimedia movement. This includes communication with the general public, the media, and the Wikimedia movement. The group's primary method of communication is its private mailing list.
The group is facilitated by the Communications Committee and the Wikimedia Foundation Communications department. The primary contact for the group within the Foundation's Communications department is Gregory Varnum (gvarnum
wikimedia.org).
Membership
Participants in Wikimedia movement affiliates and Wikimedia activities who are interested in engaging in or supporting movement communications efforts are encouraged to be part of the group, and can request to be added to the mailing list.
Joining
Individuals interested in joining the mailing list may request to do so via Meta-Wiki.
If you require anonymity for personal safety reasons, please contact Gregory Varnum (gvarnumwikimedia.org) within the Wikimedia Foundation's Communications department. The Communications department will make a determination on your request in consultation with the Foundation's Trust and Safety team.
Requests to join requires agreeing to follow the Wikimedia Foundation's Friendly space policy. Decisions on all requests are made by the Wikimedia Foundation Communications department, who may seek input from the Communications Committee. In general, anyone interested will be able to join. However, an effort will be made to keep conversations productive and prevent individuals who are seeking to disrupt the group or harass its members from joining. We will also make an effort to retain the internal collaboration focus of the group by asking members of the media to instead join our public mailing lists as their presence may prevent some members from feeling comfortable sharing drafts or discussing ideas which are in early stages of development and not yet ready for media coverage.

History
The Movement communications group was created by the Wikimedia Foundation Communications department in March 2019. It was created based on the March 2019 composition of the Communications committee mailing list, which at the time had approximately 200 members. As a part of reconfiguring the Communications committee into a smaller group, the Movement communications group was created as a replacement for the more expansive group.
