Person Specification.

 Personal experience of participating on Wikimedia projects or 
 otherwise within the open-source/open-knowledge sphere or open knowledge movements

Just wondered why that was in "desireable" rather than "essential"? LoopZilla (talk) 20:58, 11 January 2015 (GMT)

Hi Gordon - basically, because we don't want to limit ourselves to candidates who have already been heavily involved in Wikimedia or other open-source and/or open-knowledge projects. We certainly want a candidate who cares about knowledge and sharing it, and who can understand and work effectively in our environment - we've tried to find a way of specifying that in the "attitudes and behaviours" section. However those skills and attitudes might have developed in a range of different settings. The Land (talk) 09:15, 12 January 2015 (GMT)
