Wikimedia experience
[edit]I joined Wikipedia in september 2017 so I'm very much a newby. In november 2017, I read/watched the summaries of the Wikimedia 2017 Strategic Direction process (phase 1).
Aug 2020: I've been AOL as a contributor for about 2 1/2 years due to other priorities in my life. Hoping to gradually get back up to speed and contribute more.
Languages
[edit]I'm British and I've been a Dutch resident for 40+ years. I'm bilingual (EN/NL) and I contribute to Wikipedia pages/discussions in both languages. I have NL->EN translation experience.
Wikimedia interests
[edit]My interest in Wikimedia is learning about Wikimedia's policy, strategy and programs that enable Wikimedia to remain a valuable and sustainable resource in an ever-changing world.
Competences
[edit]With regard to Wikimedia, I see my main competences as: communication (generally and especially using digital media), reviewing strategies and plans and organizational change management
Vision/Goals for Wikimedia
[edit]I share the Wikimedia Vision/Goals that resulted from the 2017 Strategic Direction process (phase 1). My personal Nr 1. priorities are:
- that Wikimedia becomes much more of a true collaborative partner in the broader 'knowledge ecosystem'. And that it selectively adds value where it most able, letting other partners add value where they are more able.
- that Wikimedia successfully deals with the organizational challenges highlighted during the introduction of the Berlin 2017 Strategy conference "What challenges will we deal with?"
