Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-07-27/Board candidates

Elections for the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees begin on 28 July. The Signpost put a series of questions to each of the candidates to help voters efficiently assess the candidates and their platforms. This is a counterpart to the candidate questions on Meta, which in 2008 generated nearly sixty questions and a potentially overwhelming amount of reading material for voters.

The questions from the Signpost are intended to give the candidates a chance to introduce themselves and then to address some of the significant issues faced by the Wikimedia community and English Wikipedia. The candidates differ significantly on such issues as whether the Board should play a role in reforming the governance of English Wikipedia and other projects and what Wikimedia's strategic planning priorities should be. Readers are encouraged to pose additional questions to the candidates on Meta.
