Jumlah pembaca melalui email meningkat 18% tahun ini. Jumlah pengunjung ke situs web terus menerus turun sejak kuartal kedua 2007. Edisi-edisi Wikizine dalam beberapa bahasa diluncurkan juga pada tahun ini. Sekarang terdapat Wikizine bahasa Jerman, Spanyol, dan Indonesia. Kelanjutan publikasi edisi-edisi baru ini mengalami kesulitan, dan jumlah pembacanya, kecuali untuk edisi bahasa Indonesia, sangatlah mengecewakan. Wikizine EN juga mengalami masalah-masalah dan proyek ini hampir-hampir dihentikan. Pada bulan-bulan lalu, upaya dari hanya beberapa orang saja berhasil mendorong kembali proyek ini dan memberikan energi kembali bagi Wikizine untuk berlanjut di 2008 dan mudah-mudahan untuk seterusnya. Terima kasih bagi para pembaca Wikizine, dan demikianlah tinjauan kami untuk 2007. Tahukah Anda ...... bahwa Anda dapat mengembangkan pengetahuan Anda dengan berlangganan sebuah milis?

On Foundation-l the point was raised that for this newly created function no public announcement was made for people to submit there candidacy for this function. Also the move from the unpaid position as board member to a new, paid, function raised questions. Sue Gardner, Executive Director WMF and new boss of Erik, clarified the choice and procedure. Key aspects were that Erik - because of his professional background, community background and technical knowledge of the technical side of WMF operations - is a very useful addition to the WMF staff who have no WMF community background. The WMF is still looking for people for some functions for the San Francisco office. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/23208 -- Announcement by Sue Gardner http://article.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/23275 -- clarification by Sue Gardner http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/23227 -- reservations about it http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Job_openings -- functions still open [Fundraiser] - The fundraiser of the Wikimedia Foundation has been extended until January 3, 2008.

The readership by means of email increased by 18% this year. The number of unique visitors to the website is going steadily downhill since the the seconded quarter of 2007. New language editions of Wikizine where launched this year. There is now a Wikizine in the German, Spanish and Indonesian language. The continuing publication of these new editions has been troublesome and there readership, with the strong exception of the Indonesian edition, highly disappointing despite the effort put in those editions. EN Wikizine suffered also troubles and it came close to termination of this project. The last months the effort of only a few people sufficiently supported this project and provided the necessary energy to continue Wikizine in to 2008 and hopeful well beyond.
