2025 Board of Trustees selection process – Candidate shortlisting process

[edit]

The candidates application period for the Wikimedia Foundation 2025 Board of Trustees selection was closed on July 9, 2025. The Elections Committee has announced the list of 12 (twelve) eligible candidates.


A shortlisting process will be conducted to produce 6 (six) final candidates that will be voted on by the wider community. Representatives of Wikimedia movement affiliates that are currently compliant with their reporting obligations (list of all Affiliates currently compliant) has been notified to participate in the shortlisting process based on the candidates’ alignment with the requirements and desired criteria for candidates. The process is open from now until Monday, July 28, 2025 at 23:59 UTC.


After the shortlisting process concludes, the 6 (six) candidates who receive the highest number of votes will be announced by the Elections Committee on Wikimedia-l and Meta-wiki, but without publicly mentioning their ranking. As mentioned on the Meta page, the results of this shortlisting process will be shared after the election closes, to avoid influencing the vote.


On behalf of the Elections Committee and the Governance Committee,

Discussion at Category:LGBTQ pride in cities & towns under 30,000

[edit]

The Wikimedia Commons category,LGBTQ pride in cities & towns under 30,000, has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. It was previously deleted by one individual. It would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. Myotus (talk) 19:56, 31 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

An update from the Board and/or staff would be appreciated - nothing seems to have happened for a long time. Peltarion (talk) 02:49, 13 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
