Invitation to affiliate members to complete a survey about WMF wide Universal Code of Conduct
Hello; My name is Mervat, and I am helping the Trust and Safety team to reach out to affiliates in order to discuss the Universal Code of Conduct. I am contacting you as you are a member of the Wikimedians for Sustainable Development User Group. If you have received this from other user groups/chapters, you can ignore.
There has been talks about the need for a global set of conduct rules in different communities over time, and finally, Wikimedia Foundation Board announced a Community Culture Statement, enacting new standards to address harassment and promote inclusivity across projects.Since the universal code of conduct that will be a binding minimum set of standards across all Wikimedia projects, will apply to all of us, staff and volunteers alike, all around the globe, and will impact our work as groups, individuals and projects, it’s of great importance that we all participate in expressing our opinions and thoughts about UCoC, its nature, what we think it should cover or include and what it shouldn’t include; how it may develop, drawback or help our groups. This is the time to talk about it. As you are a valuable contributor to the Wikimedia movement, your voice counts. Before starting to draft the code of conduct, we would like to hear from you; We invite you to devote some minutes to take this survey; your answers will help us create a safer environment for all on Wikimedia:
It’s possible that you are a member of more than one affiliate; hence you may receive this survey more than once, and you may have participated previously in the discussions or filled out a previous survey during the first round of consultations about UCoC which targeted wikipedia/wikimedia communities. We apologize for this; it is really difficult to identify if a wikimedian belongs to multiple groups that work to spread free knowledge. Looking forward to your thoughts and opinions and hoping that you can respond within the next 2 weeks. If you have any questions about the surveys or difficulties accessing the link, please contact me by email (msalman-ctr@wikimedia.org)Results will be considered during the drafting process for the UCoC. Thank you for your participation.

Assistance with creating new Wikipedia article
Hello Peaceray,
My name is Abbey-- an intern for the Labor Archives of Washington. I was hoping to create a new Wiki page for an organization whose records we have recently processed. The organization is called RIDGE, and organized around issues of land use and forest management from the late 1980s until 2014. I've drafted a new page for the association, but there is a message at the bottom of the draft saying that the article is in review, and may take months before the page can be reviewed and accepted. I spoke with LAW Head Conor Casey, and he suggested I reach out to you to see if there's a different way to make this process move along a bit faster. We can also speak via email, Conor has offered to introduce us via email so we can avoid posting my personal email address on Wikipedia.LaborArchWA (talk) 21:14, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- Hi 2604:2d80:5197:3800:c13d:9a21:b3ff:d221 & LaborArchWA,
- I took a brief look at w:Draft:Ridge (association). If you do not mind, I am going to proceed in making a number of improvements to get it ready for prime time. It will have a much better chance in review with some changes like standard citation formatting. We should make further discussion on the w:Draft talk:Ridge (association)
