Q87992390[edit]

Oi VStocco. Vi que você fundiu dois itens em Biblioteca Municipal Hermenito Dourado (Q87992390) mas estou com a impressão de que se trata de dois lugares diferentes, julgando pelas informações naquela entrada. Você poderia dar uma checada, por gentileza? NMaia (talk) 16:06, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • @NMaia: Oi, NMaia. Obrigada pelo aviso! Consultei algumas fontes, e em todas elas consta que existe apenas uma biblioteca em Irecê. Acredito que a diferença de informações se deva à biblioteca ter mudado de endereço e telefone algumas vezes ao longo dos anos. (Uma fonte mais antiga lista um terceiro endereço diferente para a biblioteca.) Realizei uma query rápida e vi que há mais GLAMs que editei que atualmente possuem mais de um endereço. Você acha que adicionar um qualificador especificando o ano no qual aqueles endereços / telefones eram válidos seria uma boa solução? VStocco (WMB) (talk) 14:59, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[WMF Board of Trustees - Call for feedback: Community Board seats] Meetings with the Wikidata community[edit]

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees is organizing a call for feedback about community selection processes between February 1 and March 14. While the Wikimedia Foundation and the movement have grown about five times in the past ten years, the Board’s structure and processes have remained basically the same. As the Board is designed today, we have a problem of capacity, performance, and lack of representation of the movement’s diversity. Our current processes to select individual volunteer and affiliate seats have some limitations. Direct elections tend to favor candidates from the leading language communities, regardless of how relevant their skills and experience might be in serving as a Board member, or contributing to the ability of the Board to perform its specific responsibilities. It is also a fact that the current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Western Europe. In the upcoming months, we need to renew three community seats and appoint three more community members in the new seats. This call for feedback is to see what processes can we all collaboratively design to promote and choose candidates that represent our movement and are prepared with the experience, skills, and insight to perform as trustees?

In this regard, two rounds of feedback meetings are being hosted to collect feedback from the Wikidata community. Two rounds are being hosted with the same agenda, to accomodate people from various time zones across the globe. We will be discussing ideas proposed by the Board and the community to address the above mentioned problems. Please sign-up according to whatever is most comfortable to you. You are welcome to participate in both as well!

Also, please share this with other volunteers who might be interested in this. Let me know if you have any questions. KCVelaga (WMF), 14:33, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
