Phase 3: Design Proposal

To be determined with Board guidance

The refined naming convention proposal is used to develop a design proposal rooted in the unified concept, the research, the movement's 2030 goals and the communities' needs. The proposed brand system–the design proposal together with the refined naming convention proposal–is shared with the communities for feedback, after which it is further refined.

Phase 4: Final refinement and style guides

To be determined with Board guidance

The design elements, assets and tools go through final development and refinement.

They are made available for everyone in the movement to view and, if approved, to use.

This phase culminates with the presentation of the full proposal to the Wikimedia Foundation leadership and Board of Trustees.
