This is a draft version of the membership application guidelines prior to the first General Meeting. It is still a work in progress; please leave comments on the talk page, or on the mailing list. The current Membership Secretary is User:Mike Peel; please contact him if you have any questions regarding membership. The proposed rules regarding membership are on another page.
Membership levels
Membership initially consists solely of what WMUK1 called "Guarantor Membership", but here is simply called "Membership". Other membership levels, e.g. Friends (non-voting; what WMUK1 called "Supporting Membership") and Corporate Membership, are left to be decided on at the first AGM. Membership is open to all; there are no restrictions in the location or age of members, and members do not need to be editors of any of the Wikimedia Foundation projects.
Membership fee
Membership is not transferable. The annual membership fee is initially £12/year, reduced to £6/year for concessions (defined as under 18, full-time student, unemployed and OAPs).
This fee will be reconsidered at each future AGM.
Fees and donations at the moment can be in the form of cheques, bank transfers or standing orders. We are currently looking into paypal payments and cash.
We have recently applied to register for Gift Aid and will keep this updated when we hear back.
