2016 Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director Search Community Survey

The Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation has appointed a committee to lead the search for the foundation’s next Executive Director. One of our first tasks is to write the job description of the executive director position, and we are asking for input from the Wikimedia community. Please take a few minutes and complete this survey to help us better understand community and staff expectations for the Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director.

Constructive Editing

Hi,

You recently reverted an edit I made to a town page Alford, FL. I believe that the edit was indeed constructive, as it adds information that persons visiting the area should be made aware. I have lived in the town almost my entire life and nearly everyone in my age group in that area has been imprisoned, killed, or otherwise held in the grips of methamphetamines. I feel that this information is crucial to any who plan on buying property in the area, or visiting the area.

As for the other edit, in Cottondale, I can see how that could be seen as vandalism, and for that I apologize.

Hi, I made edits on this page (Bio of a living person) but you reversed them. The edits were based on events that happened as per this speech...

to assert that someone has written a book, other than a self published book, is an indication of significance; not necessarily actual notability , though I think Karason is probably notability. As the reviewing administrator,r I therefore did not delete the article.

Since there have been previous problems, Please do not review further new articles until you have re-read and thoroughly understood WP:Deletion policy, WP:CSD, and WP:N. I know you areeager to do these activities, but you firstmust learn what makes an acceptable WP article. DGG ( talk ) 01:31, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

MxGPU Article Rejection -- Seriously??

Respectfully, this is getting more than a little ridiculous. I am citing over 70 sources, many of them independent, having scoured the web for any and all information related to this technology. Meanwhile, I can point you to any number of articles that have been approved despite FAR more blatant advertising and other issues. For just a few examples, please explain how my article is "advertising" while the following are not:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrix_Systems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon

Also, it does me absolutely no good to keep parroting the same reason over and over. Perhaps some SPECIFIC feedback?

Sorry to sound frustrated, but I am bending over backward to try to please an ever-changing panel of thoroughly subjective reviewers.

Ok... Read it as a just a viewer of wikipedia it will seem like a commerical then an article on encylopida. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ (talk) 19:25, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

1) Can you please provide specific examples within my article?

2) Can you please explain what exactly makes my article an ad while the links I provided to existing, approved articles are not ads?

Simply telling me to re-read the article does me zero good. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nosfiratu (talk • contribs) 02:10, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Use of AWB on foreign-language text

Hi. The page Cáritas Colombiana, which was in Spanish, has been deleted now, but checking it in order to advise its author I see that before it was deleted you ran AWB spell-correction on it. You shouldn't do that on foreign language text. For instance, eficiente, distintas, efecto, esencial are all good Spanish words, but your AWB edit "corrected" them to efficiente, distantas, effecto, essential which aren't.
