The Wikimedia Foundation communications department is leading a redesign to improve and update the Foundation’s website during Fiscal Year 2017-2018.

Предыстория

In 2016, the Communications department, at the request of the Leadership team, agreed to undertake a review of the current Wikimedia Foundation website. Based on that assessment, the decision was made to redevelop the existing Wikimedia Foundation website.

Возможности

The Wikimedia Foundation website is a high-traffic web destination for thousands of monthly visitors. We aim to update the site to increase staff usage of this high visibility communications point, and improve understanding of the Foundation’s work among community, donors, partners, and potential employees.
