Making a new proposal

Before you make a proposal, please scan through the existing proposals to see if someone has already made a similar proposal. In general, we encourage you to categorize, discuss, edit, translate, merge, and fork the proposals you see below.

Some ideas worth thinking about include: how to reach a larger audience than the one we currently reach, how to achieve broad and diverse participation, how to create more high quality content, and how to ensure the long term sustainability of the Wikimedia movement.

Questions are also collected on the key questions page. But please feel free to frame up your thoughts in any way that makes sense to you — this is the beginning of the planning process, not the end of it.

Feel free to submit stuff (proposals as feature requests) to Bugzilla for further action. Please add proposals being implemented to implemented proposals.

To create a submission, put the title in the form below and press the "create page" button.

Rating existing proposals

Please use What do you think of this proposal? section at the bottom of each proposal to rate proposals on priority, impact, feasibility and desirability. You can also place the {{Impact}} template to talk pages of proposals and rate.

To track your favorite submitted proposals, see favorite proposals.

At this point in the process, we've collected questions and proposals: now it's time to discuss them and to see how they tie to a greater vision. Below are a few links that might be of interest.
