A̱tung 26 Zwat A̱ni̱nai 2023 ma̱ng Jhyuk Lyulyoot Cucuk hu | 30 August 2023 Meeting and Roles Naming Adjustments

The BoT members had a meeting virtually via Google Meet on Saturday, 26 August 2023, in which L. K. Timothy suggested that the roles be renamed to clearly distinguish between the Governance and Administrative roles.

Hencefoŗth, the Governance roles would include the Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, Financial Secretary, two Board Members, and members of the Board of Advisers (BoA). Meanwhile, the Administrative roles shall include members roles like the Executive Director, Project Manager, contract and volunteer staff, all of which shall be sourced for when the Tyap Wikimedians Organization is strong enough financially to afford them.

In the meantime, the actors in the Governing roles shall double up as Administrative role staff but the roles themselves have been clearly demarcated. Kambai Akau (talk) 22:24, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Khai 30 Zwat A̱ni̱nai 2023 | 30 August 2023 Election

The Tyap Wikimedians User Group (TWU) Board of Trustees Meeting on Saturday, 29 August 2024, with all six board members present has come to the conclusion of cancelling the Board of Trustee slot presently occupied by Dorothy Ka̱tyak Habila. The position would, hereafter, be replaced with a paid position of a Communications and Advocacy Officer who would work in the Tyap Wikimedians Organisation as an admin staff alongside the Executive Director and the Project Manager. The number of Board of Trustees (BoT) members of the Tyap Wikimedians User Group/Organisation would hence reduce by one, leaving behind the positions of Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, Financial Secretary, and one Board Member. The group hopes to grow gradually with time. Meanwhile, the BoT member whose tenure expires on 30 August 2024, hereafter, is invited to act as a Board of Advisor (BoA) member, joining Mashan Genesis Kambai and others as advisors of the TWU.
