[Languages] Communicating our work in different languages

[Samuel Klein]

How are we going to transmit updaets aout our work to communities that
don't read and write English?

Let's try to integrate this question into our process from the
beginning of our real push to solicit more input.

While involvement has been limited, we have at least succeeded in
getting a *bit* of feedback from community groups in English. We have
had almost none in other languages, and as Galileo mentinoed, many
communities still have little idea about the Strategy process and plan
(though all were announced sporadically to those communities, they
aren't part of the collective consciousness there).

Can this be one of the first questions addressed by our the team for tough topic of communications?

SJ, could you please clarify what you mean with "our" (or rather, "us") in
this context? Do you refer to the movement roles group, or rather to the
Wikimedia Cabales in general?

1. How is any of the movement roles work going to be shared with
people who do not read English?

2. How are the people on this list going to address or reflect on that
issue in our writing and planning?

3. What aspects of 'movement roles' require or are founded
specificailly on interaction among these non-English communities?

@Jon, this is about communication (as is the very act of cleaning up
notes and publishing them), but is more urgent than the larger Tough
Topic. We should be communicating with a broad set of communities
next week, and have some core descriptions of the MR project (and the
strategy project before it) translated, simply to be able to
effectively plant the idea of "movement roles" in the minds of people
who may or may not thereafter want to communicate about it.
