Hello FULBERT,
I’m Cassie Casares, a program support associate for the Wikimedia Foundation’s Community Development. I work with Maggie Dennis, the Vice President of Community Resilience & Sustainability. Our department is responsible for many critical operations in the movement, and that includes supporting the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation in onboarding into their roles.
We are excited to welcome Victoria Doronina, Lorenzo Losa and Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight to the Board. As we work to help our new trustees better understand the different departments and functions of the Wikimedia Foundation, we also believe it is important to introduce them to different corners and insights of the movement with which they may not have much personal experience. We recognize that these outstanding individuals have extensive experience in the movement but believe it is integral that trustees have a sense of “us” that is global and diverse like our communities. We also hope to use the materials we assemble to help onboard future Board members, including those who join from outside of our movement.
To that end, we are developing a podcast that will be compiled of interviews with different volunteers from across the movement, and we would like to invite you to participate.
Christel Steigenberger recommended you as a volunteer with community experience that the Board of Trustees will find incredibly valuable.
The interviews will be conducted by Maggie or by my manager,
Simona Ramkisson. We would aim to schedule a 60 minute meeting with you that is convenient to your timezone. These interviews will be recorded, with excerpts drawn from multiple interviews to help create a full picture of a range of experiences. In order that people may feel confident to speak frankly, they will be considered a confidential resource, and will not be shared publicly. They will only be provided to the Board of Trustees (now or future) or to onboarding senior Foundation staff, who would also benefit.
We are happy to answer any questions and would also be delighted to set up a time to talk, if you are able to help us with this request.
Best,
Cassie Casares

I can't help but notice the content you reverted was the legitimate translated information from the Japanese wiki as requested under the "translation requested" banner at the top. While the user didn't copy over the untranslated citations, I don't believe it was grounds to revert the imported content. RealKorgi ( talk) 21:04, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

Week 1, Assignment, Huilin826. This is Huilin, it is my first time using it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Huilin826 ( talk • contribs) 23:40, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi, everyone. Here is Haoxuan Nie's week 2 report.
1. I found that my assigned article is rated C level, which means there is a lot to fill in. The article uses a number of sub-headings to describe in detail where this climate exists on different continents. The content of the article is also related to the topic, but the whole article does not cite many reliable sources, which needs to be added.
2. /info/en/?search=Humid_subtropical_climate
3. I think actively adding in-text citations in every sentence of the article can enhance the professionalism and credibility of the article, making it a good entry. A good article requires a neutral tone, a clear structure, balanced content, and good citations. -- Nenenie ( talk) 22:51, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
1. The article that I choose was "Asian Hip Pop". This is currently a level C article and needs many improvements. The history background part seems to be incomplete and many key figures and people were not added to the article. The citation also has some issues and some do not contain one. 2. /info/en/?search=User:Bl2240/Evaluate_an_Article 3. I learned that all articles should be reviewed and evaluated before sending to the public. If not, others would get incomplete or false information. -- Bl2240 ( talk) 07:01, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
1. The article that I copyedited was "Changpeng Zhao" (The CEO of Binance). 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Changpeng_Zhao&type=revision&diff=1050501631&oldid=1047007898 3. I learned that Wikipedia is free for all to edit, yet we should be extra careful when doing our editing. In this case, the original writer did not provide the DOB for Changpeng Zhao. -- Bl2240 ( talk) 07:07, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Hello, this is dongjunjie's second week post
1. I found that the articles I assigned belong to the Academic disciplines category. This article answers very rigorously. This article is defined and recognized by the academic journals that publish the research results, as well as the academic groups and academic departments or faculties in the colleges and universities where the practitioners belong. At the same time, it has a very comprehensive references as a support, so that readers can obtain a lot of useful knowledge from it 2. /info/en/?search=Cross-cultural_communication 3. I learned how to add citations in the text correctly in this article to enhance the professionalism and credibility of the article. 4.the link of evaluation, /info/en/?search=User:Jjjjdddd199704/Evaluate_an_Article#Evaluate_the_article -- Jjjjdddd199704 ( talk) 04:24, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
1. The article that I copyedited was "Ren Zhengfei" (The CEO of Huawei). 2. /info/en/?search=Ren_Zhengfei 3. Because everyone can edit the wiki, I afarid to provide errors Information, and I checked my reference again and again. In this change, I found that the original text did not mention Ren Zhengfei’s ranking and wealth in Forbes, so I added "In April 2021, the Forbes Global Rich List was released, and Ren Zhengfei ranked 2378 on the list with a fortune of 1.3 billion US dollars. "this sentence. 4. the link of "Ren Zhengfei"'s Bibliography, /info/en/?search=User:Jjjjdddd199704/Ren_Zhengfei/Bibliography?veaction=edit&preload=Template%3ADashboard.wikiedu.org_bibliography -- Jjjjdddd199704 ( talk) 04:48, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi everyone, this is Huachen Bu, I'm really excited at the opportunity to contribute to Wikipedia! Come along! -- Beccabubu ( talk) 12:01, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
1. My Copyedit article is "A Madman's Diary". Here is the link, /info/en/?search=A_Madman%27s_Diary
2. I just added some details and change some words that can make the article more specific. https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=A_Madman%27s_Diary&type=revision&diff=1051127236&oldid=1045458837
3. I was worried about revising the article at first. I was afraid I didn't know enough about it and would make mistakes. So I chose a topic that I particularly liked and knew well. I think by adding some details, readers can better understand the main idea of the article and feel the feelings the author wants to express. Make the story described in the theme more vivid. -- Nenenie ( talk) 18:47, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
Hello, I hope you are all doing well, this is Kai Wu's report for the week 2 assignment. This article I assigned to myself is related to stock market protection. It's a class C level article so there is plenty of room for improvement. For this article, I found that it has a daily average of 146 views. there are some issues of the content are lack of evidence and support, the stock analysis method is currently missing, such as the current ratio, Return on Equity, etc. None of these important methods for stock market analysis are listed; moreover, these content will be added on.
Link to my article: /info/en/?search=Stock_market_prediction
what I have learned in the process is by adding technical content into theoretical content can better enhance the credibility of the article. Gdaymate011 ( talk) 01:20, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
