Digital Safety on Wikimedia Platforms
Hello Wikimedians,
We are reaching out to you all today with a message from the Human Rights and Trust and Safety Teams at the Foundation to provide you with some resources around digital safety while using the projects.
What do we mean when we say “digital safety”? Your digital safety on Wikimedia platforms can refer to your risk of being harassed, doxxed, or targeted by external organisations. There are ways to reduce the risk to yourself while you are using the platforms. For example, protecting your personal information gives anyone targeting you limited access to you and your life outside Wikimedia.
Here are some available resources to help with your digital safety:
- You can find lots of helpful resources at the Human Rights Meta page for Digital Security;
- You can read this Meta page on digital security concerns for Wikimedians;
- There is this Meta page from Trust and Safety with some resources for those dealing with harassment;
- We also have a learn.wiki module about digital safety where you can learn how to do a digital security risk assessment on yourself.
You can also read the following Diff posts:
- How can a username keep you safe?
- Doxing: Have you tried doxing yourself?
- Doxing: Why should you care?
- Digital safety during election time
- Digital safety best practices when attending conferences
- The Internet Outages Guide
Also, for some resources produced by other organisations, see the simple Security Planner to proactively stay safe online, and explore the Digital First Aid Kit for guidance in addressing digital harms as they arise.
If you are ever experiencing digital safety issues due to being active on Wikimedia platforms and you don’t know how to resolve them, or if you have any thoughts or questions on digital safety, you can reach out to our teams:
- For concerns around harassment, abuse, doxxing, disinformation, or other Trust and Safety concerns: ca@wikimedia.org
- For concerns about being targeted by a government or other human rights related concerns: talktohumanrights@wikimedia.org
Kind regards, Human Rights and Trust and Safety at the Wikimedia Foundation Wikimedia Foundation office (talk) 10:43, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Wikimedia Foundation banner fundraising campaign in India
Dear all,
I would like to take the opportunity to inform you all about the upcoming annual Wikimedia Foundation banner fundraising campaign in India.
The fundraising campaign will have two components.
- We will send emails to people who have previously donated from India. The emails are scheduled to be sent between the 22nd of July to the 15th of August.
- We will run banners for non-logged in users in India on English Wikipedia itself. The banners will run from the 13th of August to the 10th of September.
Prior to this, we are planning to run some tests, so you might see banners for 3-5 hours a couple of times before the campaign starts. This activity will ensure that our technical infrastructure works.
I am also sharing with you a community collaboration page, where we outline more details around the campaign, share some banner examples, and give you space to engage with the fundraising campaign.
Generally, before and during the campaign, you can contact us:
- On the talk page of the fundraising team
- If you need to report a bug or technical issue, please create a phabricator ticket
- If you see a donor on a talk page, VRT or social media having difficulties in donating, please refer them to donate at wikimedia.org
Thanks you and regards, JBrungs (WMF) (talk) 05:59, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
Board of Trustees election
The Q&A phase is underway, closing on June 12. Here's the candidate list. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:11, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
WMF Transparency Report Accounting
During our discussion on Katherine Maher, the comms team shared resources on cases where WMF intervenes on content and policy decisions and I had some follow up questions. For example it's showing 89 requests on English Wikipedia, 33 by USA in H1 2021 . How do we see which content was affected? cc @LDickinson (WMF) Tonymetz 💬 22:07, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- No content was affected. All of the requests were denied. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:16, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- I don't believe that's true, because @WMFOffice has contributions that are a subset of the above report, so there are some changes that are recorded and some that are not yet accounted for. Tonymetz 💬 23:28, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- What are you talking about? Most of WMFOffice's edits are marking users as globally banned (a process that has nothing to do with anything in the transparency report). None of it's extremely few other edits have anything to do with third-party requests for removal or alteration of content. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:36, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- can you share more context on that? The transparency report doesn't seem to show that Tonymetz 💬 23:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Scroll up to the very top of your link:
Content alteration and takedown
0 Requests granted
276 Total requests
* Pppery * it has begun... 23:36, 10 June 2024 (UTC)- thanks i use a screen reader and the section i was using seemed to show alterations vs deletions. I'll see about the section you were talking about. Tonymetz 💬 20:14, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikimedia Foundation Bulletin: an experiment
Hi all. We invite your feedback on a proposed way to improve communication from and about the Wikimedia Foundation. The Wikimedia Foundation Bulletin is an experiment to establish a more standardised format and cadence. It would include headlines and links from the Wikimedia Foundation's technical work; Foundation activities with communities and affiliates; as well as with other stakeholders like readers, donors, regulators, the media, and the general public.
A short overview of the concept itself is on Meta at m:Wikimedia Foundation Bulletin, with the first “trial” issue at m:Wikimedia_Foundation_Bulletin/2024/06-01 - also copied below. You can subscribe to the bulletin via talk page delivery on any Wikimedia wiki. Depending on the feedback received, we might start this as a regular Bulletin for the coming fiscal year (which starts July 1).
This is an experiment: we want to know what you think, what is missing, what is too much, and whether this is something that we should consider investing more time and effort into. Please post your feedback on the Bulletin talk page - on the concept itself, and suggestions on anything from the design to specific words used would also be helpful. You can also provide feedback in this thread; by email to askcacwikimedia.org; or at the next Conversation with the Wikimedia Foundation’s Board of Trustees on 27 June at 18:00 UTC.
