Dear fellow Wikijournal editorial team,
I apologize if some of you receive nearly duplicated or even triplicated
mail on the issue but I still have not heard from most of you. As some of
you already know I have been working on video content for us. Although I
would love to already open a Youtube channel for us, I know it would be a
mistake without consensus around many issues.
I am going to send out a few video clips, which I made unlisted so they can
not be viewed without the link most of which were meant as the start of a
longer video. I hope that at the least they can be recycled into social
media if there is not enough consensus to start a Youtube. I am not going
to keep working on the project if there will not be a consensus.

About the content: Most of the videos have footage that has been cleared by
the stock company I contract with to be used by WikiJournals for free (I
already corresponded with them and have it in writing) and other material
included is my own animations and music donated for our free use by Sarah
Dickerson Baxter. This is to say, this was all made for free so far.
I have already heard from Kelee Pacion, Sarah Vital, Mossab Banat and Gwinyai
Masukume. Due to my upcoming work issues, I would like a decision on
this sooner as opposed to later so I can schedule accordingly assuming I
will be the main one working on it.
Please reply to me as soon as possible with one or more of the following
statements:
1. I am against having any Youtube channels and video content because
_____________
2. I am for having one big Youtube channel for all the journals
3. I am for having Youtube channels for ____ Journal, but not the others
4. I want further discussion and clarification on ___________
5. I am for having separate Youtube channels for each Journal
6. I am not only happy about the idea of video content, I will help produce
some
7. Something else __________________
8. I trust the social media people can sort this without me, so you can
stop sending me emails about the issue
9. I think we should have a channel if we vote for each video and discuss
it as a group until there is consent over every video
Thanks, Makeda (Dr. Candace Makeda H. Moore)

Hi all WikiJournal participants,
I received an email from the Brand Project Team of the Wikimedia Foundation
about feedback on naming convention proposals. As for WikiJournals, as I
understand it, it will mean that instead of "Funding: Wikimedia Foundation"
at for example the WikiJMed page
<https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_of_Medicine>, it will instead
say "Funding: Wikipedia Network / Wikipedia Movement / Wiki" or perhaps
"Part of the Wikipedia Network / Wikipedia Movement" or "A Wiki Project",
depending on which proposal wins. We are therefore asked to discuss this,
and then have a representative fill in the survey on behalf of WikiJournal.
Best regards,
Mikael

Subject: [Brand Project] Naming survey: Affiliates
To: Mikael Häggström <haggstrom.mikael(a)gmail.com>
*Dear Affiliates, This is the 2030 Movement Brand Project affiliate survey
to provide feedback on the naming convention proposals. One survey should
be submitted per affiliate. The answers will be interpreted as the opinion
of the affiliate. The results will be used to determine how to remove,
refine and recombine elements from different proposals into a single naming
proposal. Responses will be published on Meta-Wiki and attributed to each
affiliate, but only the survey administrators on the Brand Project team
will have access to the email address connected to each response. *
*Follow this link to the Survey: *

*Thank you for your responses! This survey should take approximately 20
minutes to complete after you have completed discussions with your
affiliate. It will be available until 30 June. It is currently available in
Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Russian and Spanish. If you need
more time, just contact us.*

I have no problem, personally, with the aims but the question is whether or
how we would actually change ourselves so as not to be hypocritical. As
discussed in our recent journal meeting we have a slant towards certain
types of people (UK,EU,USA, NZ and Australia), and I'm sure within those
societies there is also a slant e.g. our volunteers in India are probably
not from the Dalit class. Yes, of course there are exceptions e.g. I'm
African-American and but that is probably anomalous. Maybe this should
prompt more discussion. Maybe we could have some kind of initiative to
start Wikipedia in Residence positions in 3rd world countries and among
certain historically marginalized groups in the first world? I'm just
brainstorming. Feel free to tell me about how I've got this all wrong...
