It's certainly an interesting research report on the relationship between Affiliates and AffCom. </p><p>Even less, from my perspective at least, but it meets the requirements for Affiliate Strategy as such. What it completely lacks is a description and solution to the current affiliate crisis, a naming of the fundamental points - the incomparability between many user groups and chapters, and a suggestion of how the current system and form should evolve at all. These are, in my view, necessary steps towards the very foundation of the strategy. </p><p>Without resolving this crisis, the claims described for Affiliates may be solvable and achievable by some Chapters, but they completely miss the goal of conceptualizing, addressing, and setting an ideal strategy for the future evolution of Affiliates. </p><p>Without this, I fear we will inevitably go round in circles in setting up effective processes within the movement - particularly the financial flows and demands of Affiliates. <a href="/wiki/User:Kl%C3%A1ra_Joklov%C3%A1_(WMCZ)" title="User:Klára Joklová (WMCZ)">Klára Joklová (WMCZ)</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Kl%C3%A1ra_Joklov%C3%A1_(WMCZ)" title="User talk:Klára Joklová (WMCZ)">talk</a>) <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_Affiliates_Strategy#c-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900-A_strategy_that_is_not_a_strategy" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:09, 13 September 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900-A_strategy_that_is_not_a_strategy"><span id="ooui-php-7" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui='{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}'><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900-A_strategy_that_is_not_a_strategy"></span> </p> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:Kl%C3%A1ra_Joklov%C3%A1_(WMCZ)" title="User:Klára Joklová (WMCZ)"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-NTymkiv_(WMF)-20241118141000-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900"></span>Klára Joklová (WMCZ)</a> Hello there, thank you for taking the time to follow along and meaningfully read the Wikimedia Foundation Affiliate Strategy (Recognition)! First of all, I agree with you that it is not a complete affiliate strategy. For context, this work was intended to help us provide a blueprint for the immediate work of the Foundation with affiliates, not to supplant a broader affiliate strategy discussion for the whole Movement. Thus it has a very limited scope, and it is primarily focused on the recognition strategy (as a direct responsibility of the Wikimedia Foundation Board for now).</dd></dl> <dl><dd>While this affiliate recognition strategy is in the early stages of implementation, the outcomes of the implemented changes are not known just yet. The plans are to continue to iterate and improve over the next year with the input from stakeholders. The main goal was to resolve some immediate issues, and hopefully have more data to have more fundamental conversations.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>This is also just part of the work that the Foundation is trying to do to address the strategy of affiliates. In addition to refining the approach to recognitions, the Wikimedia Foundation, with other stakeholders - both affiliates and unaffiliated community members - is working to co-create a strategy for support of the ecosystem of movement organisations with the launch of <a href="https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Resolution:Draft_Movement_Charter_and_next_steps/Appendix#3/_Proposed_Changes_to_Affiliate_Ecosystem" class="extiw" title="foundation:Resolution:Draft Movement Charter and next steps/Appendix">pilot 3</a>. Pilot 3 will be worked on throughout 2025. The expectation is to collectively answer questions around the growth of new affiliates and the distribution of funds. I share your goal of conceptualising, addressing, and setting an ideal strategy for the future evolution of Affiliates and hope that is achieved together. Hope that helps, at least in the part that your concerns are heard and shared! --<a href="/wiki/User:NTymkiv_(WMF)" title="User:NTymkiv (WMF)">NTymkiv (WMF)</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:NTymkiv_(WMF)" title="User talk:NTymkiv (WMF)">talk</a>) <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_Affiliates_Strategy#c-NTymkiv_(WMF)-20241118141000-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:10, 18 November 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-NTymkiv_(WMF)-20241118141000-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900"><span id="ooui-php-8" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui='{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}'><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-iconElement-noIcon oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-NTymkiv_(WMF)-20241118141000-Klára_Joklová_(WMCZ)-20240913100900"></span></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONDESKTOP__{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Sj-20241125201100","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?-Implementation-20241125201100","replies":["c-Sj-20241125201100-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?"],"text":"About the new process: Why so complex, and so private?","linkableTitle":"About the new process: Why so complex, and so private?"}--><h2 id="About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?" data-mw-thread-id="h-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?-Implementation-20241125201100"><span id="About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex.2C_and_so_private.3F"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?-Implementation-20241125201100"></span>About the new process: Why so complex, and so private?<span data-mw-comment-end="h-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?-Implementation-20241125201100"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_Affiliates_Strategy&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: About the new process: Why so complex, and so private?"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-timestampLabel'>Latest comment: <a href="#c-Sj-20241125201100-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?">20 hours ago</a></span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-commentCountLabel'>1 comment</span><span class='ext-discussiontools-init-section-metaitem ext-discussiontools-init-section-authorCountLabel'>1 person in discussion</span></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONMOBILE__{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Sj-20241125201100","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?-Implementation-20241125201100","replies":["c-Sj-20241125201100-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?"],"text":"About the new process: Why so complex, and so private?","linkableTitle":"About the new process: Why so complex, and so private?"}--></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Sj-20241125201100-About_the_new_process:_Why_so_complex,_and_so_private?"></span>This seems like a time-intensive, multi-step approach to something that could fundamentally be public and iterative.
