Feedback on December 16, 2021 DEI report

Regarding the December 16, 2021 Knowledge Equity DEI report found here m:Communications/Research/Diversity, equity, and inclusion research/United States - 2021 - The report suggests to add comments and questions to this page, but I would suggest using the Discussion/Talk page of that report directly if possible, so as to keep the conversation and the data together. I've posted some comments there already at m:Talk:Communications/Research/Diversity, equity, and inclusion research/United States - 2021. Thanks. - Fuzheado (talk) 13:42, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

Responding to Katherine Maher/Uri Berliner Story on WP:VPW

Could I ask for more formal attention on on this discussion

Why I think it's a timely & unique opportunity for the comms team

1. It aligns with WMF comms mission for external comms Grow and protect the reputation of the Wikimedia Foundation, its projects, and the movement. and We build initiatives to help grow the reputation of the Foundation, movement and key initiatives and manage issues and crisis situations that may interfere with our mission..
2. It would demonstrate to editors return on investment in comms.
3. This is an opportunity to reverse/confront negative brand trend in USA preference for Wikipedia is relatively low in countries such as the United States and Germany where misplaced poor quality perceptions of Wikipedia still linger.

Even if the plan is no active external comms, editors would welcome more internal engagement and clarity on the strategy with this case. Tonymetz (talk) 19:39, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

We are continuing to monitor and are addressing any incoming media questions as well as clarifying our model to people. We've seen a dramatic drop in conversations about this issue. Our social listening analytics, which assess the volume of mentions on this topic based on relevant keywords, show that from 1 April - 2 May, the peak of mentions occurred on 18 April (with 8709 mentions). On 2 May, there were 15 mentions, and we continue to see a decline. The press team is keeping a close watch. LDickinson (WMF) (talk) 14:15, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

As far as I can see, WMF posted two tweets to respond this incident 1 2. Also, I don't think WMF comms must do something to feed the troll. Thanks. SCP-2000 05:03, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

thanks for your engagement here this would be my first time on the Comms page. Could you tell me a bit more about your involvement? Tonymetz (talk) 21:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

I am not the WMF staff and it is just based on my observation, so I am afraid I can't answer your question:) SCP-2000 03:55, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

I see thanks for sharing your personal observations. Tonymetz (talk) 04:23, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

HTML inconsistencies on translated page Wikimedia_Foundation/Communications/fr

hi all, EN page is ok but translated page(s) as for example Wikimedia_Foundation/Communications/fr present contents text whith abnormal extra big size and several tags <div class="flex-grid-col wmf-collapsible-box-title".... not yet rendered, showing thus an obvious inconsistent HTML structure. Can someone correct please because I have no translate admin rights on this wiki. Thanks. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 14:56, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

The message Translate this page appears at the top of the page, so there’s no task left that needs translation admin rights. Just take a look at the outdated translations. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 22:39, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Hey @Pppery! Could you please check some translated pages besides English one? They all have the code and do not seem rendered properly. I think we all will appreciate if you could fix it. Thanks! — Pacha Tchernof (talk) 05:58, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

No idea why I was pinged here specifically, but this is now fixed. The problem was {{WMF Collapsible Box}} wasn't properly supporting parameters with lang indications. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 16:06, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
