Source: based on the Wikimedia Foundation Governance Wiki policies index, https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Main (CC BY-SA). Status: proposal, classification to be confirmed by the steering committee.

During the migration of the Wikimedia Foundation Governance Wiki policies to WikiDeal, some source pages are proposed not to be copied to WikiDeal. This page lists those pages, with an explicit reason for each entry. This list is a proposal: final decisions belong to the steering committee. It currently covers the policies index (Policy:Main); it will be extended in later migration blocks (for example the Legal: documentation).

Non-migrated pages

Specific to Wikimedia services, tools or technical infrastructure with no WikiDeal equivalent

  • Wikimedia Maps terms of use: specific to the Wikimedia Maps service, which has no WikiDeal equivalent.
  • Wikimedia Phabricator terms of use: specific to Phabricator, the Wikimedia development platform, which has no WikiDeal equivalent.
  • IP Information Tool policy: specific to a Wikimedia investigation tool that is not deployed on WikiDeal.
  • Peering policy: specific to the network and datacenter peering arrangements of the Wikimedia infrastructure.
  • Access to temporary account IP addresses: specific to the temporary accounts feature deployed on Wikimedia wikis; could be included later if WikiDeal deploys equivalent tooling.
  • Modifying CheckUser logs guidelines: specific to the CheckUser tool, which is not deployed on WikiDeal; could be included later if WikiDeal deploys equivalent tooling.

Specific to the encyclopedic domain or to sister projects with no WikiDeal equivalent

  • Licensing policy: governs free-content licensing across the encyclopedic sister projects (Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikispecies, Commons, Wikidata, etc.), which have no WikiDeal equivalent; the licensing of WikiDeal wiki content is a separate question for the steering committee.
  • Open access policy: governs open access to scholarly research supported by the Wikimedia Foundation; specific to the free knowledge research domain, not applicable to a contracts platform.

Covers topics that are not yet current for WikiDeal; could be included later

  • Trademark policy: the WikiDeal and Ynternet.org Foundation trademark portfolio is still to be defined.
  • Scholarship travel policy: WikiDeal has no scholarship program.
  • Service provider travel guidance: WikiDeal has no equivalent travel program for service providers.
  • Visual identity guidelines: the WikiDeal visual identity is still being defined.

Internal administrative, staff and Board policies of the Wikimedia Foundation

These pages regulate the internal operations of the Wikimedia Foundation as an employer and as an organization with its own Board of Trustees and committees. For WikiDeal, the equivalent matters depend on the internal rules and governing bodies of the Ynternet.org Foundation; they could be included later.

  • Board of Trustees Candidate Review Process
  • Code of conduct policy (Board and staff)
  • Code of conduct of the Board of Trustees
  • Conflict of interest policy
  • Confidentiality agreement of the Board of Trustees
  • Credit card usage policy

  • Expense reimbursement guidelines
  • Investment policy

Specific to United States law

  • Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) policy: specific to a United States statute (the Wikimedia Foundation is a US organization); the Ynternet.org Foundation is subject to Swiss law, and the relevance of an equivalent anti-corruption policy is to be assessed.
