General questions

1. To get the ball rolling, what do you see as the key challenges for WMUK over the next 2-3 years, and what approaches would you advocate to meet them? --Johnbod (talk) 15:15, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
2. Hello! Part of our vision as an organisation is to be true to the Wikimedia ethos of volunteers freely contributing their time and knowledge freely for the benefit of others. As Wikimedia UK grows in staff and budget, maintaining this ethos is likely to pose novel challenges. What do you think will be important in dealing with this, and what experience do you have that you think is likely to be relevant? --The Land (talk) 10:21, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
3. In your opinion is it preferable for a membership organisation like Wikimedia UK to have a large, apathetic membership, or a smaller, more actively involved membership? --Harry Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 19:55, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
4. I am not sure whether to write this as a member or a member of staff but I think it is important to know how candidates feel about the governance review we just completed. So three questions:

   • Have you read the Hudson Review?
   • What did you make of its recommendations?
   • What are the key lessons associated with this review that we have learnt? --Jon Davies (WMUK) (talk) 09:33, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

5. There is currently a discussion of what role metrics should play in assessing the effectiveness of the training delivered by WMUK. What do you think would be an important consideration in taking this forward? --Leutha (talk) 13:12, 1 June 2013 (UTC))
