With respect to specific themes yes I think "quality content" qualifies and is an excellent theme. Goals that work on improving content would than fall under that.

It is really a large scale question. I can hardly imagine what I will be doing as my job in 15 years, even harder to predict the whole Wikimeidia movement or the world trend.

I really appreciate your dedication. To answer your first question, 'the first big question' is 'What do we want to build or achieve together over the next 15 years?' We hope that we can find out the answer with the discussion in different communities, and there are some topics we can discuss in order to find out the themes we want to work on. Here are some examples. * What will guide our work together over the next 15 years? * What impact or change do we want to have on the world over the next 15 years? * What is the single most important thing we can do together over the next 15 years? * What will unite and inspire us as a movement for the next 15 years? * What will accelerate our progress over the next 15 years? * What will we be known for in the next 15 years? I believe that we can try to explore different topics in the discussion. At the very beginning, I would suggest that we can try to find out our goals first, and then maybe we can talk about the technology which can be used to achieve our goals, also how to encourage the community to work together. Best, Venus Liang, 你好 謝謝你參與我們的討論。 首先回應你的第一個問題，我們想希望通過有關維基媒體運動策略的討論，邀請各位分享意見，讓我們找出我們於未來15年的發展方向。以下是可供參考的討論題目。 * 我們於未來15年的發展方向? * 我們希望於未來15年會為全球帶來什麼影響呢? * 對於未來15年的計劃，我們有重點發展的項目嗎? * 對於未來10年的發展我們可以如何團結一致達致目標? * 如何評估我們於未來15年的計劃? 現階段我們可以先找出發展目標，然後再慢慢找出可達成目標的方向。我認為我們可以就各方便來進行討論例如科技，參與社群，及如何讓社群可以得以持續發展作為我們的討論題目。就我個人而言，我認為我們於未來15年的發展方向，可以專注於維基媒體的姊妹計劃，例如教育計劃以及館聯計劃。 首先就教育計劃而言，我認為我們可以投放更多資源於各地發展維基教育計劃，一方面可以令更多人使用維基百科，另一方面亦可令維基百科上的條目學術專業化，使其成為一個可用的學術參考資源。 館聯計劃方面，現階段我覺得於Wikdata和Commons上有關亞洲藝術的資源尚未完善，我希望於未來15年我們可以邀請更多不同的合作單位和我們分享資源，使我們的資源庫更加豐富。 謝謝, Venus On 19 March 2017 at 17:51, Liang-chih Shang Kuan &lt;shangkuanlc(a)gmail.com <mailto:shangkuanlc@gmail.com>> wrote: Hello Nichole and fellows, One of the volunteering translator of strategy process from Chinese Wikimedia community is asking that, he is confused regarding "the first big question", what is it to be exact, and also, what would be the "themes"?

Hey Liang, Though the big question is indeed a large scale one, you could take advantage of the examples provided by the cycle page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017/Cycle_1&action=edit&preload=Strategy%2FWikimedia+movement%2F2017%2FCycle+1%2Fpreload&section=new&create=New+section&nosummary=true> and form more precise questions. eg - What impact or change do we want to have on the world over the next 15 years? - What is the single most important thing we can do together over the next 15 years? - What will unite and inspire us as a movement for the next 15 years? You can also form your own questions basing on these guidelines.
