Verification

Hello Joe! Hope you are fine in this pandemic situation. Because you are a facilitator of Wikimedia foundation's Board of Trustees Elections I want to know from you about an issue regarding my document verification.

About 3 days earlier I submitted my photograph and Birth certificate to the email address: secure-info@wikimedia.org, as a proof of my identity.

But no one has verified my identity on my candidature page yet.

When it will be verified? and can you verify it ?

Kindly inform me as soon as possible. Md. Abdul Ahad Khan (talk) 17:49, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

@JSutherland (WMF): I just recieved your mail and saw on my candidature page that you have verified my Identity.

Thanks Md. Abdul Ahad Khan (talk) 18:05, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

@Md. Abdul Ahad Khan: Yes, I believe all should be good now :) Thanks for your patience. Joe Sutherland (Wikimedia Foundation) (talk) 18:38, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Trustee eval form

Doesn't seem to be filled out at Wikimedia Foundation elections/2021/Candidates/Farah Jack Mustaklem? ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 01:08, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

@ProcrastinatingReader: I think this is done by the candidates themselves. Pinging Fjmustak. Joe Sutherland (Wikimedia Foundation) (talk) 01:17, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing this out! --07:55, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Ruwiki users needs to test secret ballot through SecurePoll

Hello. Ruwiki now holds a RfC about switching its ArbCom elections to half-secret ballot (votes should not be published until voting ended, after that votes should be published to all users), see ru:Project:Опросы/Направление реформ выборов#Тайное голосование. Several years ago I got a sysop rights on testwiki for SecurePoll testing (and I have successfully created test elections in SecurePoll), and now I decided to test if SecurePoll fits our requirements.

But now I can't create a test poll due to phab:T295214 => phab:T290856 => phab:T290808, see also phab:T295213#7487101. Please, help us to test SecurePoll. MBH (talk) 13:07, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

Secure poll account

Hi. I saw that you created a account for me on votewiki. Presumably I'm supposed to be blocked as I think I wasn't supposed to have an account there? Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | enwiki} 22:49, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, that's my mistake. I'll block it now. Apologies for the oddness :) Joe Sutherland (Wikimedia Foundation) (talk) 22:51, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
