Walaupun saya seorang calon, saya menentang proses elitis yang memberi kuasa kepada segelintir orang terpilih dan bukannya mengatur pembuatan keputusan dengan ahli komuniti kita yang memiliki agenda dan menunjukkan minat. Sama seperti pemegang amanah dalam projek Wikimedia, saya percaya bahawa pemegang amanah yayasan juga boleh mengesahkan dan melaksanakan keputusan yang dibuat oleh komuniti.
Daripada kajian saya tentang pergerakan Wikimedia, saya juga berpendapat bahawa adanya terlalu banyak wang memudaratkan misi kita untuk berkongsi pengetahuan. Ia meningkatkan bilangan pekerja dengan mengorbankan penyunting, manakala mereka yang memberi wang kepada yayasan kurang cenderung untuk mendedikasikan masa untuk projek. Dengan lebih 600 pekerja, kebanyakannya bekerja jarak jauh, yayasan ini sukar untuk diurus. Daripada memperbanyak ahli Lembaga Pemegang Amanah, lebih baik untuk mengurangkan kakitangan dan pengumpulan dana, yang sudah tidak diterima dengan baik oleh media. | |

Digital-anthropology, socio-political PhD student, financial analyses, free and open source software and free license user and supporter. Much more information available on my Wikimedian contributor page. | |
| Lived experiences in the world. We are especially interested in reading about lived experiences in the regions of Africa, South Asia, East and South East Asia & Pacific, and Latin America & Caribbean. We believe that experience in these regions could help expand the board’s ability to fulfill the movement strategy goal of more equitable participation, although we recognize that other experiences may also provide important contributions.

I'm finishing my PhD thesis about Wikimédia movement (read in French, read in other languages). I have a 10 years old son and a long personal experience of social care and the stigma it brings. Since 2011, I have been devoting most of my time to studying the Wikimedia movement, which I consider to be a social experiment that is very much ahead of its time in terms of awareness of the issues and possible solutions to the challenges facing our global and digital society.
I can also give a hand to the board concerning issue about inclusion and representativity in the movement. I would also like to put volunteering back at the centre of the movement instead of institutional and financial development. I am in favour of consensus, drawing lots and direct, participatory democracy within the movement and I can help the movement to evolve in this direction. | |

I have the privilege of living in a country that is quite respectful of human beings and their freedom of expression and way of being. But I struggle personally and daily to be able to live without proprietary software (including in the Wikimedia movement), to pollute our environment as little as possible and to produce the minimum amount of greenhouse gases. I also struggle to free myself from the grip of money and employment that makes us part-time slaves of an immoral and dehumanized economic system.
By writing my PhD thesis on Wikiversity and comparing the university system to my observations within the Wikimedia projects, I also hope to open a debate about the democratization of science within the human community by challenging some privileges and dysfunctions of the social sciences. Including in the Wikimedia movement, I try to show the way to another way of producing knowledge outside the Wikipedia project, whose editorial rules do not allow a fair representation of knowledge. | |
| Experience in relation to (or as a member of, to the extent you choose to share) a group that has faced historical discrimination and underrepresentation in structures of power (including but not limited to caste, race, ethnicity, colour, national origin, nationality, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, religion, language, culture, education, abilities, income and environment).

As I'm facing to dysorthographic and dyslexic troubles, and because I've been most of the time of my life social assistance recipient, refusing to be submitted as an employee, I've experienced a lot of stigmata in my life. | |
