WikiGap Challenge

[edit]

Hi! I noticed that you took part in WikiGap Challenge last year. I just wanted to inform you that we are running the Challenge this year too, to improve the representation of women on Wikipedia! For WikiGap Challenge 2020, the first prize is to go to Geneva and visit UN Human Rights. Writing one of the bonus points articles, about women active in human rights, yields double points in the competition. I hope you join this year too!

Dear Alvinategyeka! Thank you for being with us at the VSN Wikimania trivia session. I hope you had as much fun as we did! And that this barnstar will bring memories of the magical (and tasty!)

Invitation to Serve as a Judge for the Wikimania Poster Session

[edit]

My name is Victoria Doronina, and I am a part of the organising team for the Wikimania 2025 Poster Session. I'm inviting you to serve as a judge for the Poster Session at Wikimania 2025. As someone deeply engaged in the Wikimedia movement and currently a candidate for the Board of Trustees, your insights and experience would bring tremendous value to the evaluation of this year’s poster presentations.

The judging process would involve reviewing posters online and providing a score. You can score as many posters as you have time for.

We would be honoured if you could join us in recognising and encouraging the innovative work of Wikimedians from around the world. Please let me know as soon as possible if you are available to participate so that I can share the scoring sheet with you - just write me an email: vdoroninaATwikimedia.org

I must say that this is not a part of the election process, please feel free to decline.

Thank you for considering this invitation. I wish you the best of luck with your candidacy for the Board of Trustees. Victoria (talk) 09:23, 24 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Your candidacy for WMF board

[edit]

I was saddened to see that you were not deemed eligible for the board, perhaps because of lack of identification? Your statement and answers to the questions were very impressive and until I realized you weren’t eligible you were one of my top two favorites.

I’m sure it may be disappointing for you, but I have confidence that you can apply again successfully and I look forward to voting for you in the next election. @alex (talk) 16:07, 12 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Dear Alex thanks for the kind remarks. Thanks also for taking time and writing to me such an encouraging message.
Though I missed out, it was a privilege to participate in the process and gaining the confidence of people like you. To know that my answers resonated is such a great compliment.
I look forward to staying engaged in the Wikimedia movement and hopefully earning your vote in the next cycle.
Kind regards. Alvinategyeka (talk) 07:43, 13 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
