Partner der Wikimedia-Bewegung/Portal
Diese Seite listet wichtige Ressourcen für Wikimedia-Vereine, thematische Organisationen und Benutzergruppen auf.
Verhaltenskodex
Wie in der von dir unterzeichneten User Group Agreement angegeben, wird von den Wikimedia-Partnern erwartet, dass sie sich an einen Verhaltenskodex halten, der eine Richtlinie für das Verhalten der Gruppenmitglieder in allen Kontexten (online und offline) darstellt und nicht nur auf persönliche Veranstaltungen beschränkt ist. Es ist wichtig, dass man als anerkannte Gruppe für die Einhaltung des Verhaltenskodex sorgen muss und dafür verantwortlich ist. Darüber hinaus hat die Foundation einen Verhaltenskodex für technische Räume entwickelt. Wir empfehlen dir, diese Richtlinien zu prüfen, um als Gruppe einen lokalen Verhaltenskodex zu entwickeln, den du dann in die Landessprache(n) deiner Gruppe übersetzt. Dieser Verhaltenskodex sollte von den Gruppenmitgliedern innerhalb der ersten 6 Monate nach der Anerkennung und bei Beitritt neuer Mitglieder gebilligt werden.

Planning for cooperation
The Affiliations Committee is interested in fostering healthy collaboration or at minimum, peaceful co-existence among Affiliates that share an overlap in thematic or geographic region. User groups may come and go, or they may stay to thrive and grow as user groups, or sometimes develop into chapters or thematic organizations. However, no user groups have ownership of the territory in which they operate, and we encourage many user groups to coexist. We aim to ensure peaceful coexistence by working with all new and existing groups to identify their planned activities and goals to connect on shared movement goals and to balance any potential overlaps with agreements for operating in shared spaces. You are encouraged to demonstrate steps and initiatives you have taken to collaborate with existing Affiliates in your region, and where such a collaboration is not possible, a plan for how you will maintain scope and focus integrity in respecting boundaries you communicated in your application.
Planning for diversity
The Affiliations committee encourages new groups to consider creating plans to ensure diversity in Members, Leadership as well as Activities. This is a good indication of the growth potential of groups as they pursue the movement goals and mission. You are encouraged to develop a diversity plan and to submit this within the first 6 months of your recognition, and as new members join.
