Movement Charter/Glossary/cs
These supplementary documents are provided by the Movement Charter Drafting Committee for information purposes, and to provide further context on the Wikimedia Movement Charter’s content. They are not part of the Charter, and therefore are not included in the ratification vote, but they have been developed during the course of the MCDC’s research and consultation process. They include several types of documents:
|
Care Responsibility
The “care responsibility” formalizes and describes the relationship between organizations and the Wikimedia Movement communities that they serve. It includes, but is not limited to: providing an inclusive and diverse working environment for Wikimedia Movement community members; supporting Wikimedia Movement activities in online Wikimedia projects; conducting work to further free knowledge initiatives together with such communities; and, serving as an intermediary between such communities and the general public.
Komunita
Skupina osob, které se aktivně podílejí na projektech Wikimedia nebo je různými způsoby podporují (propagace, organizace akcí, koordinace atd.). Tito jednotlivci jsou obecně označováni jako wikimediáni.
Obsah
Jakýkoli materiál přidaný, odstraněný, pozměněný, revidovaný, upravený, smazaný nebo jinak upravený registrovaným nebo neregistrovaným uživatelem pomocí jakéhokoli uživatelského rozhraní, který způsobí změnu jakéhokoli aspektu projektu Wikimedia.
Rovnost
Rovnost je snaha zajistit, aby byly spravedlivě uznány a oceněny jednotlivé kvality jednotlivých stran. To zahrnuje zohlednění okolností a překážek, které ovlivňují schopnosti všech stran a brání jim v dosažení stejných typů úspěchů. Rovnosti se nedosahuje tím, že se ke všem přistupuje stejně.
Svobodné znalosti
Svobodné a otevřené znalosti, jsou znalosti, které jsou dostupné zdarma a pod otevřenou licencí a které lze používat a šířit bez peněžních, sociálních nebo technologických omezení.
Fundraising
Získávání finančních prostředků je činnost spočívající v hledání a získávání darů. V této chartě se pojem "fundraising" používá k popisu procesu získávání peněžních darů od nezávislých organizací a individuálních dárců. Tento pojem zahrnuje i granty poskytované třetími stranami, často na podporu konkrétních cílů.
Pro další způsoby získávání peněz vizte generování příjmů.
Inkluzivita
Snižování vyloučení a diskriminace (mimo jiné z důvodu věku, sociální třídy, etnického původu, náboženství, pohlaví, sexuální orientace) jednotlivců i skupin prostřednictvím úprav prostředí, politik a struktur, které vytvářejí podmínky pro vznik rozmanitosti.
Generování příjmů
Revenue generation is the process of obtaining funds to support one or more aspects of the movement. Some examples of revenue generation are:
- fundraising
- including grants provided by third parties (unrestricted or to support specific objectives), major gifts, or fundraising events,
- membership fees for affiliates
Related to revenue generation is “donation-in-kind,” when an organization or individual provides services and/or physical items without charge, or by charging a discounted fee. Examples can include:
- meeting rooms or office space;
- internet access; and
- free access to archival material.
Zdroje
Resources are a stock or supply of money, materials, staff, knowledge, or other assets that can be drawn on by a person or organization in order to function effectively.
In the case of the Wikimedia movement, resources include:
- monetary assets obtained by revenue generation;
- people (including their time, effort, and capacity; the very large number of volunteers who drive the movement; and, the small number of paid staff who support the volunteers);
- the reputation of the Wikimedia movement and its projects and activities as a source of knowledge made available to the world freely and openly;
- the content of the Wikimedia projects as developed and managed by volunteers;
- the physical storage that contains the software and the content of the Wikimedia projects; and
- the educational and informational documentation to support the projects and other movement activities.
Stakeholders
Any individual or group, whether volunteer or not, having invested human, financial or other capital in an organization, who can affect the realization of organizational objectives or is affected by the realization of those objectives.
In this Charter, “stakeholders” are individuals or groups who have a stake in fulfilling the Wikimedia Movement’s vision. More precisely, the term includes online and offline communities, organized groups like affiliates, the Wikimedia Foundation, and members from the wider online information ecosystem, like partners and allies.
Subsidiarity
Subsidiarity is the principle that decisions should be made at the lowest level possible, with other stakeholders located at higher levels stepping in only when necessary.[1]
Wikimedia Movement
The “Wikimedia Movement” refers to the totality of people, groups, and organizations who support and participate in Wikimedia websites and projects. It includes all of those who operate within the policies, principles, and values of the movement.[2]
Wikimedia projects
Wikimedia has a series of knowledge projects (e.g., Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiversity, and others). Local or individual Wikimedia projects are primarily language versions of a knowledge project (e.g., English Wikipedia, Turkish Wiktionary). Certain Wikimedia projects are cross-language and do not have specific language versions (e.g., Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons). There are also projects that act as infrastructure for the Wikimedia community, such as the Meta wiki and the MediaWiki wiki.
Notes
- ↑ See also the definition of Subsidiarity & Self-Management from the Movement Strategy Principles
- ↑ Della Porta & Diani (2006) observe that social movements share three criteria: (a) are networks of informal interactions between a plurality of individuals, groups, and/or organizations; (b) are engaged in political or cultural conflicts/change; and (c) exist on the basis of shared collective identity. Movements do not have hard boundaries, since different movements tend to fit one inside the other.
