Hold a succesful pilot of Discourse on discourse.wmflabs.org as an alternative to wikimedia-l mailinglist.
This is a tracking ticket. Please create a ticket for anything that blocks discourse.wmflabs.org to be a succesful pilot as an alternative to wikimedia-l mailinglist.
**User stories:**
- As a Wikimedian I want to share news about what is going on in the movement with involved other Wikimedians so that those Wikimedians stay informed about what is going on
- As a Wikimedian I want to raise an issue to be discussed with fellow Wikimedians so that fellow Wikimedians can share their opinion
- As a Wikimedian I want to announce changes in the composition of boards of chapters and commission so that outgoing officers can be thanked and incoming officers can be welcomed
**Wish list and other requirements for a discourse platform for Wikimedians**
# Free and open software
# Free license
# Multi lingual interface
# Primary discussion language English - optionally: multilingual discussion
# Single Sign On (**SSO**): someone with a Wikimedia account should be able to sign in to Discourse with that account (just like Phabricator)
