维基媒体国际会议陪审团是年度维基媒体国际会议的申办评选委员会。陪审团成员每年由维基媒体国际会议督导委员会选出,它负责审核本地志愿者团队的投标并向督导委员会和维基媒体基金会推荐申办地。

审阅团队的流程包括公开和非公开的讨论和商议,历届的委员会由维基年会组织者和董事会、顾问委员会和员工代表组成。

未来的审阅团队

成为维基年会委员会成员需要:

  • 审阅申请条件和工作安排
  • Evaluate presented bids according to the published bid criteria. (English is typically the language for bid submission and discussion.)
  • Identify any outstanding problems or issues with the bids, communicate them to fellow jury members.
  • Be available by email to schedule meetings, discuss bids.
  • Attend 1–2 meetings (generally on IRC online chat and/or Google Hangout) prior to bid deadline. Identify questions for bidders.
  • Discuss the bids in the two weeks after the bid deadline. (Typically includes 2 or more IRC meetings, email, wiki pages, Google Docs.)
  • Be available to answer questions from the community and the prospective hosts.

Important qualities for jury members

  • Familiarity with Wikimania requirements and "feel"
  • Past attendance of Wikimania
  • Involvement in Wikimania planning or execution
  • Past experience in event planning in other contexts
  • Ability to absorb complicated, unfinished, wiki-based documentation, and verify specific details (Jury members often research flight costs, venue, cities, and past work of bid team members.)
  • Showing respect for the hard work that community members have put into their bids
  • Showing respect for cultural differences
  • Ability to neutrally evaluate bids without preconceptions (like "we could never have wikimania in x place")
  • Ability to assume good faith, even during disagreements, for fellow jurors' reasoning
  • Ability to keep community members informed and welcomed to comment on the bids and process, and to make sure that their comments are taken into account
  • Ability to work through disagreement to find consensus (Note: the jury always disagrees, and must meet and discuss until they come to consensus (including on how best to decide) and present a decision.)
  • A desire to see Wikimania succeed and continue to be an awesome conference

Time commitment

  • The time commitment is focused in the time around the bid deadlines. Bid jury members should be prepared to spend a few hours per week working on the process during this period. It is important to meet deadlines, since community members are depending on the result. All bid jury members should be available for and engaged in deliberation and meetings.

In sum: this is an important, interactive, and occasionally difficult job. Doing a good job helps ensures the future success of Wikimania.

Questions? Past bid jury members and moderators are listed on the respective Wikimania pages (e.g. Wikimania 2009). You can also contact the WMF Events Manager for more details --EYoung (WMF) (talk) 19:02, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For future jury moderators

  • To-do:
  • make up schedule
  • schedule IRC meetings (one or 1.5 weeks in advance seems good)
  • get gmail addresses from all jury members: you'll probably be sharing documents (note: etherpad might be an alternative to this in the future?)
