Борд на настоятелите на фондация Уикимедия

Бордът на настоятелите на фондация Уикимедия наблюдава работата на фондацията и е неин висш ръководен орган.

Структура

The Board was formed in 2003 with three Trustees, and since 2008 consists of up to ten Trustees. It appoints four officers: a Chair and Vice Chair (who have to be Trustees), and a Treasurer and Secretary (who do not). The work of the board partly involves resolutions and votes. Other work is delegated to a number of committees covering matters such as Board Governance, Audit, and Human Resources.

The Board is composed of the following seats:

• one founder's seat (reserved for Jimmy Wales);
• two affiliate seats selected by the Wikimedia chapters and Wikimedia thematic organizations at affiliate-selected Board seats
• three seats nominated by the Wikimedia community at Wikimedia Foundation elections/Board elections
• four seats appointed by the rest of the Board for specific expertise selected in a process guided by the Wikimedia Foundation Board Governance Committee

Contacting the Board

There is a Board noticeboard for sharing requests and recommendations. The Board can be contacted directly by either posting to the noticeboard, or by email to WMFboardwikimedia.org. The Foundation itself can be contacted in a number of ways as outlined on their contact page.
