The starting ideas look to me like a mixture of a strategy and the implementation of that strategy. However, it is a "review" so that is fine and dandy. [[User:LoopZilla|LoopZilla]] ([[User talk:LoopZilla|talk]]) 14:59, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

:Thank you Loopzilla, I'm glad you said that. There needs to be a review of what's already there and how it's being used in order to strategise effectively - which is the step after the review (in my view, at least). --[[User:Stevie Benton|Stevie Benton]] ([[User talk:Stevie Benton|talk]]) 15:06, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

==Communicating with whom?==
One of my frustrations since I started has been how unfocused we are about communicating within the community.
First of all, as Chris pointed out in his review we have too many different channels, some of which are hardly used or even visited. We need to refine this.
Secondly we neglect our members - I am one and get little aside from AGM stuff. I would like to know more, be reminded of where to look etc.
Thirdly we should remember our donors who are an important base for support.  A quarterly enews telling them about all the great stuff we do and encouraging them to come along to meets etc seems a no brainer.
Fourthly we need to be faster and sharper. If people are to visit our blog we need it to be responding at the speed of light to whatever is happening and being talked about.

Strategy and Implementation.

The starting ideas look to me like a mixture of a strategy and the implementation of that strategy. However, it is a "review" so that is fine and dandy. LoopZilla (talk) 14:59, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

Communicating with whom?

One of my frustrations since I started has been how unfocused we are about communicating within the community. First of all, as Chris pointed out in his review we have too many different channels, some of which are hardly used or even visited. We need to refine this. Secondly we neglect our members - I am one and get little aside from AGM stuff. I would like to know more, be reminded of where to look etc. Thirdly we should remember our donors who are an important base for support. A quarterly enews telling them about all the great stuff we do and encouraging them to come along to meets etc seems a no brainer. Fourthly we need to be faster and sharper. If people are to visit our blog we need it to be responding at the speed of light to whatever is happening and being talked about. Jon Davies WMUK (talk) 09:47, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
