/Temp - for new versions of the main portal

To test a new version; copy the source and paste in a basic teksteditor. Save it as txt but give it the extension .html Open with a browser. --Walter 22:09, 15 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

• I suggest that the page be rearranged to fit into a 800*600 space.
• Also, I'd suggest the desing to be more like http://www.wikipedia.org.
• Last but not least, it would be nice to have local versions of this page, like http://pt.wikimedia.org, grouping the projects in each language. this is only for wikimedia chapters --Waldir 20:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

I think MediaWiki, Bugzilla, Incubator, Test, Wikimania and other projects that I can't think of are beeing left out. Should they be added? --Steinninn 04:36, 30 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

I would like to make a suggestion to modify the website www.wikimedia.org.

Currently, it contains only one page, with a representation of all of our projects. My suggestion to replace this page with an independant website. This website would become the public face of the Wikimedia Mouvement.

The Wikimedia Mouvement, as I understand it, is a

• collection of values shared by individuals (freedom of speech, knowledge for everyone, community sharing etc...)
• a collection of activities (conferences, workshops, wikiacademies etc...)
• a collection of organizations (Wikimedia Foundation, Wikimedia Germany, Wikimedia Taiwan etc...), as well as some free electrons (individuals without chapters) and similar-minded organizations

This site will summarize what is being done by the Foundation and Chapters globally. It would welcome pages such as "Listing speaking engagements", or "press interviews" done by all organizations. It can also, in the simplest terms possible explain readers what are the roles and responsibilities of each organization.
It can be a place where chapter members and WMF members can built together a description of the mouvement in its entirety, even if it also means a lot of redirection to the individual websites.
It may be a place where we can list lobbying actions, even if some organizations do not engage in lobbying. It can be a place where we show and share the diversity of actions held to reach the same goal (the photo workshop here, the language conference there).

How
In a lazy way, it can simply be a wiki. I would strongly recommand associating a blog to it afterwards. What about developing a common bookmarking system as well ?

Please mention if you support or not the creation of this new wiki. Add comments accordingly
