Et ass kaum ze gleewen datt et virun 10 Joer Wikipedia nach net gouf. Elo benotzen 330 Millioune Leit Wikipedia all Mount, a maachen doraus déiam dackste genotzten online Wëssensquell. Honnerttausende Fräiwëlleger hunn déi verschidden Wikimedia Projeten an de leschten aacht Joer opgebaut an ënnerhal.

Obscho mir scho vill fäerdegbruecht hunn, hu mir nach wäit ze goe fir eis Visioun, vun enger Welt an Däer all eenzel Persoun fräien Accès zum Wësse vun der Welt huet, z'errrechen. Wéi kënne mir op eisen Erfolleg opbaue fir déi Erausfuederungen déi virun eis leien ze meeschteren? Manner wéi ee fënneftel vun der Bevëlkerung vun der Welt huet Accès op den Internet. Obwuel honnert tausende vu Fräiwëllegen haut bäi de Wikimedia Projete matmaachen, si sinn net representativ fir d'Diversitéit vun eiser Welt. Vill Decisioune fir e weltwäite Mouvement opzebauen, fir fräit Wëssen ze schafen an ze deelen leien nach virun eis .

Mir fänken e Jores-Programm u fir e strategesche Plang fir d'wikimedia-Bewegung z'entwéckelen. Besonnesch versiche mir ze verstoen:

  • Wou sti mir elo?
  • Wou wëlle mir a fënnef Joer sinn?
  • Wéi komme mir vun hei dohinner?

Hëlleft eis d'Äntwerten op déi Froen ze fannen. Erfuerscht se, ënnersicht se, denkt doriwwer no wat se fir eis Visoun an eis Wäerter bedeiten. Hei si fënnef Manéiere wéi Dir hëllefe kënnt:

  • Join a task force. We are organizing task forces that will explore different topics and produce a set of recommendations related to them. strategy:Apply to participate, or form your own ad-hoc groups.
  • Let us know how you can help. If you are an expert in one of the subjects we are dealing with, strategy:add yourself to our expert database. This will allow task forces and other volunteers to reach you with questions, and you can respond when you have time.
  • Publish your ideas. Write a proposal on the strategy wiki, and help organize and improve the proposals that are already there. Post ideas on your blog, on mailing lists, and on social networks like Identi.ca, Twitter, and Facebook. Tag those posts with #wikimedia or link to them on the strategy wiki so that others can see them.
  • Host conversations about strategy. In order to develop good plans, we need broad participation. There is no way that the task forces can talk to everyone who has ideas about Wikimedia's future. This is where you can help: host your own conversations about strategy, in person or online, and publish the results on the strategy wiki. There are templates and tools for hosting strategy sessions strategy:on the strategy Wiki.
  • Talk to us. Give feedback to the strategy team. Tell us your ideas, your hopes, your fears, your goals for the projects. Add feedback to the strategy Wiki, or send an email to strategywikimedia.org.

If you cannot participate, will you consider making a donation to support this critical project? A donation will directly support our global free knowledge programs. We also need volunteers to contribute to our projects, improve our technology, and support our work in other ways.

This century has presented us with an amazing opportunity to transform our civilization, and to create equal opportunities for all human beings. We hope you can join us in our work of sharing knowledge with every person on the planet.
