必須の設問
ウィキメディア財団の理事選挙に立候補した理由は？ あなたはどんな面で貢献できますか？ もっと知りたいと思っているのはどんなことですか？ 私たちの目標達成の最良の方法はコミュニティへの投資であり、私は理事に就任して複数の予算を策定しコミュニティのエンパワーメントを促して、 ウィキメディア財団の使命を推進したいと考えています。2017年以来、ウィキメディア財団の資金調達は10億アメリカドルに達したものの、年間予算の助成金占有率はたった10%です。この金額では、リーダーシップとコミュニティの組織統治を十分に育成するにはまったく足りません。

ウィキメディア運動提携団体はウィキメディアサミット2024において、新しい運動憲章とグローバル評議会設立により、ウィキメディア財団の権限を利用者コミュニティに移譲することを決定しました。強力な支持なしに、この権限移譲は実現しないかもしれませんが、私はコミュニティの成功に必要なリソースについて交渉します。この対象にはコミュニティの現存のプログラムの維持と、スペイン語圏とインド、アフリカ諸国への増資を含みます。現状では一部のガバナンス権限にアクセスできるのは、各種ウィキ組織の参加者に限定されており、そのような参加権限のない編集者と読者の99%のため、組織統治に参加する選択肢も設ける必要があります。

私は有償ウィキメディアンとして「嘱託ウィキメディアン」の経験を12年積んできました。所属は（訳注：アメリカの）バージニア大学データ科学学部で、私の理事会活動に対して所属機関より、法務と財務、倫理その他の専門性のある学術面の支援を受ける準備は済ませました。

ウィキメディアにおける経験を説明してください（ウィキメディアのどんなプロジェクトで編集したか、ウィキメディアのどの提携団体や組織に登録しているか、ウィキメディア運動で主催する活動、あるいはウィキメディア運動に賛同する外部の団体に参加しているなど）。 *有償ウィキペディアンとして2012年から奉仕、内訳は12年にわたり毎週40時間をウィキ活動に使いました
皆さんから見て、ウィキメディア財団は今後の5-10年間に何を優先すると良いか、それがいちばん重要だと考える理由は何か、教えていただけませんか？ 私たち独自の強みは、クラウドソーシングによる分散型の組織統治であり、その成長を支援しなければなりません。
  1. グローバル評議会を設立し、ウィキメディアの編集者や読者、利用者を代表する最高意思決定機関と位置づけます。
  2. 多様性のを改善を目指して、十分に代表されていないグループに資金提供します。
  3. 組織間のパートナー関係の設計について、その範疇（はんちゅう）に研究大学、助成財団、オープンソース・ソフトウェアを対象とした市民技術組織、文化関連の GLAM、主題に関する知識を統括する専門機関などを含みます。
Optional questions - Professional Experience, Skills and Education
Please describe your experience with governing bodies of organizations (nonprofit or for-profit), mentioning the scope of your responsibilities, as well as the complexity of the organization (in terms of scale of operations, budget, number of people involved, or other meaningful measures) and the size of the board or body. Since I joined the School of Data Science at the University of Virginia, it has grown from 10 to 200 people, with annual budget of $24 million/year. In this startup environment we make all strategic decisions collaboratively, and my own contribution is emphasizing open science.

I have designed budgets and annual reports for Wikimedia New York City, Wikimedia Medicine, and Wikimedia LGBT+, so I understand Wikimedia community governance.

Since 2007 I have been on an ethics board reviewing ethics for multinational HIV vaccine clinical trials. Lessons from medical research can inform Wikimedia challenges. The United States government funds this from a US$3 billion budget.

I founded an LGBTコミュニティセンター (Q2945640) which hosts concerts. This includes posting artist profiles in Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons to showcase regional culture. Our events have helped 100 people in カミングアウト (Q208099) as LGBT+.

Please describe your professional career experience. I am a data scientist and principal investigator in multiple research projects.

After university I conducted medical 臨床研究 (Q5133849), which I still do indirectly in ethics and data curation.

From 2012-18 I was Wikimedian at Consumer Reports, which is a nonprofit 消費者保護 (Q664183) organization sharing product safety information in Wikipedia. Since 2018 as a data scientist at my university I do projects to promote オープン・サイエンス (Q309823) and オープンデータ (Q309901). Partner organizations like these invest money in the Wikimedia platform, and we should seek more.

Please briefly describe 3 situations that show how you tackled, or advised others on, a complex problem in an organization. How did you work with others to address the situations? .
  1. At my university I mentor student researchers to attempt to solve challenges. Many problems are not as complex as they seem. Students often can either resolve them or at least discover what solution exists.
  2. Since 2007 I have served on a medical ethics board overseeing HIV vaccine research. When we encounter research complaints, we organize community discussions to resolve them. Transparency builds trust, and I opened general data at d:Wikidata:WikiProject Clinical Trials.
  3. Following the rebranding petition discussions I created documentation which showcased community demands.
Please describe your educational background, including degrees, certificates, and courses of study finished, and their relevance to board work. My bachelor of science in chemistry led me to medical research, then to ethics, diversity, and openness, and then to Wikimedia medical content.
Please add any relevant links describing your professional background, experience, profile (such as LinkedIn, staff page, etc.). .
Optional questions - Leadership Experience
Please describe ways in which you have helped to form a bridge between multiple communities (such as by working on projects outside your home wiki, or working on a collaboration between multiple affiliates). I edit medical content. During COVID my outreach recruited translators for articles.

On-wiki, I support Wikimedians in applying for Wikimedia grants. My own experience and the gaps in our funding reports have convinced me that many Wikimedians are unable to access money. I feel that financial transparency would increase trust in the Wikimedia grants strategy.

As is common among LGBT+ wiki editors, I get harassed. Because my town Charlottesville had a Nazi rally in 2017 and because I live in the United States where shootings are routine, I support increased discussion of disaster response. Development of protection resources for LGBT+ people, women, neurodivergent people, and other vulnerable groups will make Wikimedia safer for everyone.

Can you describe a policy, on wiki or off, that you helped to create or change? What did you learn from this experience? At my university, I developed my school's open access policy . I learned why people either support or fear openness.

I organized community protests in the controversies over Superprotect, the removal of WMF CEO Lila Tretikov, the rebranding, Can San Fran Ban Fram?, fundraising messages, and others. These are major wiki demonstrations with many petitioners. While protests are helpful, it would better if they were not necessary. I wish to reconcile conflicts with financial transparency and consensus-building.

How have you been able to empower people to make their voices heard? I empower people to be heard by joining and bringing media to protests, as I just described.
Sometimes in professional situations, there are personality conflicts. Explain how you remain productive even with personality conflicts. I remain productive by addressing conflicts with de-escalation (Q1182511) techniques. Many organizations already have developed ways to address conflicts, and I want to bring these practices to Wikimedia. For example, feminist scholar サラ・アーメッド (Q15437208) describes how society systematically dismisses women's complaints, and teaches how to avoid this.
Optional questions - Strategic Thinking
Where do you see the need for greater diversity in the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees or within the movement? What steps would you take to improve diversity on the Board or within the movement? What steps would you recommend the Board take to improve diversity? The need for greater diversity is in the Wikimedia Foundation budget. Although our volunteer recognition programs are diverse, our investments are not. More transparency about Wikimedia Foundation budgets and the Wikimedia Endowment would inspire global confidence in our programs.
