@MGerlach I was reviewing the learnings from last year's Wiki Workshop (T334112) and there is one item that is related to your track and that is: we decided to prioritize (based on popular vote) preparing a 1-2 page document that helps Research track chairs learn how to prepare for their session and how to run it more smoothly. Is this something you and Pablo can pick up for 2024? Bob and I would be happy to lend you 2 pairs of eyes for feedback.

Given the commitments the team has for Q3 and that we have one roadmap (knowledge integrity) to tackle already in Q3, let's move this to Q4 to not overstretch ourselves. I expect that we start discussing some aspect of this work in January-March as we talk about annual planning. However, we don't need to finish it this quarter.

@Barkeep49 If ArbCom has capacity and interest to give feedback more than once, I'd like to request one round of feedback in February to start. The primary goal (to the extent I can foresee it now) is to flag any major item we may have missed in our thinking. We will likely need another feedback in March. If time is limited on you all's end, we will aim for one round of feedback in March. Let me know.

Great to hear we are closer to making it stable.
(On the questions left) The big missing question is: What Criteria do we want to communicate? In our meeting we talked about Impact and how it connects with our Mission and resources, are there any other elements we should consider?

leila added a comment to T349414: Prepare for discussions and drafting of the research best practices whitepaper.

Update:

  • All tasks in the description are now concluded. I'm going to resolve this task. The bulk of our work is now about writing (which involves discussions, possible further data collection, etc.) and we will track that at T349415.
