Add topicReminder – complete your application for Board selection
[edit]@Olitun:
Hello,
Thank you for submitting your application for the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees selection process. This is a friendly reminder for you to do the following before the end of the call for candidates period:
- Make sure that you have completed the WMF Board of Trustees Candidate Pre-Onboarding module;
- Make sure that you have read the minimum candidate requirements (including voter-eligibility) and verified that you meet the minimum qualifications and the candidate eligibility requirements;
- Make sure that your application is complete, including answering all the required questions, and that your whole application (required + optional questions) does not exceed 2,500 words; and
- If you have not done so already, submit your proof of identity to the Foundation per the protocol outlined here. You need to take this step even if you have submitted this proof previously for some other role.
- Please note: According to the Wikimedia Foundation bylaws, all Trustees must resign from any other board, governance, or paid positions at the Foundation and Affiliates within 2 weeks of appointment to the Board. You cannot be a paid member of staff on any affiliate while being a Wikimedia Foundation Trustee.
These steps must be completed by 11:59 UTC on 9 July 2025 otherwise your application may be deemed ineligible. Should you have any questions, feel free to contact the Elections Committee at electcom

On behalf of the Elections Committee,

hello, hope my message finds you well. thank you for your interest in running for the Board. i do have a question regarding the photo File:Mirja Hembram.jpg you used in your application -- who is the author (=who is the person that took the picture)? there is no information about their permission or it being published elsewhere under a free licence. if your camera/phone was used to create a picture -- it does not automatically give you the rights. so i suggest you insert some other picture with clear copyright status (or you can just take a selfie and upload it to use, as there you would be the author). good luck! -- アンタナナ 08:36, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
