If they are interested, they will be provided with instructions on how to submit their candidacy and, as always, will be able to ask questions about the process or the position.
Information for candidates
Roles and responsibilities of FDC members
- From the FDC portal
FDC members will be expected to dedicate considerable time, focus, and effort, including:
- In-person attendance at FDC meetings (two meetings expected per year, plus orientation at Wikimania);
- Reading and evaluating proposals during the two proposal rounds per year (April/May and October/November);
- Ongoing monitoring and participation in FDC discussions and activities within the community; and
- Sporadically intense email and IRC communication with FDC staff and other FDC members.
Criteria for FDC membership
To be eligible for the FDC, candidates:
- Be at least 18 years old and of legal age in your home country;
- Must be able to work effectively in English (although full fluency is not required);
- Must present to WMF appropriate personal identification, a copy of which will be maintained by WMF for record-keeping;
- Have sufficient time and dedication to commit to this process and availability to attend in-person meetings;
- Be available to attend deliberations in San Francisco Nov 15-21, 2015 (May 2016 dates not yet set);
- Have a track record of constructive engagement in community discussions and an orientation toward collaborative problem solving; and
- Be able to set aside any conflicts of interest and work towards the mission goals of the Wikimedia movement without considering individual or organizational interests.
Board members of entities requesting funds from the FDC may serve on the FDC; however, they must recuse themselves from deliberations pertaining to their entity's application.
Through careful selection of candidates through both the Board-appointment and community election processes, the FDC membership (as a whole) should have the following skills and attributes:
- Experience directing or evaluating programs;
- Grant-making expertise (either as a grantee or grantor of funds);
- Exposure to, understanding of, and personal credibility in the Wikimedia movement (that is, experience in programs, chapters, or administrative roles within the Wikimedia movement); and
- Gender, geographic and linguistic diversity.
FDC members will be expected to adhere to articulated conflict of interest provisions that will reduce their risk of being unduly influenced.
Prerequisites to candidacy
The eligibility requirements for candidates are the same as for voters (see voter requirements) with the following additional requirements:
- You must not have been convicted of a serious crime or any crime involving dishonesty or deception; and
- You must not have been removed from a position at a non-profit organization or other company because of mismanagement or misconduct; and
- At the time of nomination or election, you may not be banned or blocked from any Wikimedia project for a period of 30 days or longer; and
- You must be over 18 years old and over the age of majority in your home country; and
- You must submit proof of your identity to the Wikimedia Foundation (see below).
Submission process
If you are eligible, you can submit your candidacy by doing the following:
- Write a brief summary of no more than 1200 characters (excluding spaces) stating what you would do if you were elected to the Funds Dissemination Committee, your relevant opinions and experience, and anything else you think is relevant. You may not use your candidate summary to link to lists of endorsements or other platform pages, and may not run on a slate with other candidates.
- Submit your summary between 00:00, April 20 2015 (UTC) and 23:59, April 30 2015 (UTC). Your statement may only be changed in the 3 days after submission, or up to April 30, whichever comes first, except for minor corrections (for instance, spelling correction) or translation. Any additions or changes to content submitted after this deadline will be time-stamped and presented separately from the original summary, and will only be presented to voters if they get translated into all of the same languages as the original summary. You should note that earlier submissions allow time for translation into more languages, and that submissions provided on the due date or just before may not be as widely translated.
- Please note: To allow voters to engage with candidates quickly statements will be sent for professional translation within 48 hours of submission. While the first translation will be on a 24 hour turn around future updates will be grouped together and may take longer.
- As part of your submission, you must respond to standard questions. The responses to these questions will not count as characters for your summary. The standard questions are:
- What experiences of yours do you think will enhance the work and recommendation process of the FDC?
- Around directing and/or evaluating annual plans and programs?
- Around grantmaking?
- How does your history with Wikimedia make you suited for the FDC?
- What experiences of yours do you think will enhance the work and recommendation process of the FDC?
- Submit proof of your identity to the Wikimedia Foundation before 23:59, April 30 (UTC). (see below)
