to make lots of beer and promote that beer. all funds go to wikimedia. the beer is then drunk by wikipedians and they stand on boxes and talk about their opinions and feelings and get it all out until they pass out

Intended impact:

Target audience

edit

the vocal minority

Fit with strategy

edit

i'm trying to get people to stop whining on mailing lists and talk pages and to let them "get it all out" after a few good beers so then they'll just move on and get back to writing an encyclopedia.

Sustainability

edit

we'll come up with better beer recipes. if we get a compost that'll make it sustainable. we will also recycle everything and upcycle old stuff to make the soapboxes.

Measures of success

edit

if the mailing list traffic goes down and wikipedians become nicer
