The creation of the Wiki Women Task Force will operate under a model that allows for an organic growth curve driven by community participation. The Task Force will act as a rallying force and steering committee, providing support and resources to facilitate this growth.

Global Consultations: Conduct consultations with global communities to gather input on priorities and initiatives.
Nomination Process: Develop an open and transparent process for communities to nominate representatives for the steering committee.
