Before Wikimedia UK starts with a project, it ideally needs to be proposed. This is a fairy easy process, and just involves setting down the idea and the resources it will need. Please add new proposals as a section below. You should have a number of subsections as shown by the template.
If you have an idea for an [[initiative]] that you'd like to see supported by Wikimedia UK, then please submit a proposal below. This is a fairy easy process, and just involves describing the idea, the resources (funding/volunteers/...) it will need, and a list of people interested in participating. Once submitted, a proposal is openly discussed here, and when there is sufficient support it is discussed at a [[Meetings|board meeting]].


== Template ==
To proposal a new project, please add a brief descriptive name after "Initiatives/Proposals/" in the box below, then click "Create page". You'll then be presented with a template that guides you through the process. Once you've saved the proposal, please add a link to it in the table below.
