Ombuds commission/2015/Report Jan-Jun

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

In this report, we summarize the activities of the previous and present terms of the Commission, from January 1st until June 30th 2015.

During the above period, a total of 6 cases were brought before the commission. Not all of these cases were closed before the end of June.

Most cases were closed in less than 4 weeks from the original inquiry, and the breakdown is as follows:

  • Closed in less than 5 days: 1
  • Closed in more than 5 days but less than two weeks: 1
  • Closed in more than two weeks but less than 30 days: 3
  • One case is currently open.

In only one case, a violation of privacy policy was suspected and WMF was informed.

As a general statement, we would like to add that we found that the Commission still receives cases which are not well formulated. We recommend the community to formulate their inquiries based on the recommendations provided on m:Ombudsman commission#Submission. Inquiries with not enough information usually take longer to work on them.
