Call for Candidates
[edit]The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) is a global group dedicated to providing an equitable and consistent implementation of the UCoC. Community members are invited to submit their applications for the U4C.
As outlined by section 2.1 of the U4C charter, each member and candidate must:
- Comply with the UCoC.
- Be at least 18 years old and sign the Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information (NDA) with the Wikimedia Foundation once they are elected.
- Have not been blocked on any Wikimedia project nor have an active event ban in the past one year. Candidates who are blocked may appeal to the U4C Election Committee, who may make an exception.
- Self-identify their home wiki(s) and the region they are from publicly.
- Meet any other eligibility requirements determined during the election process.
- Be a registered member of at least one Wiki project for at least 365 days and have a minimum of 500 edits globally on 13 May 2025 12:00 UTC.
Please note that all volunteers who meet the minimum requirements are eligible to run. For an overview of the candidates' user statistics, please see the candidates guide.
In this election, according to chapter 2 of the U4C charter, there are 12 seats available on the U4C: eight community-at-large seats and four regional seats to ensure the U4C represents the diversity of the movement.
| Regional Seats (2 year term) | Community-at-large Seats (2 year term) | Community-at-large Seats (1 year term) |
|---|---|---|
| Central and East Europe (CEE) | 4 highest with most support, minimum 60% | Next 4 highest with most support, minimum 60% |
| Latin America and Caribbean | ||
| South Asia | ||
| Sub-Saharan Africa |
U4C membership is for a two-year term, the term of elected representatives (both regional representatives and community-at-large representatives) will end on June 15, 2027 for those elected to the four regional seats, and for up to four community-at-large candidates who receive the most support (as determined by the criteria established for the elections, see Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Charter#2.4. Elections). In the case where more than four community-at-large members have been elected, the additionally elected candidates who did not receive the most support will serve one-year terms ending on June 15, 2026.
Further information for candidates
[edit]Experience: Successful candidates so far have had more than 5000 edits (across all projects) and hold adminship or other advanced permissions on a project.
Time commitment: The expected time commitment is around 7 hours per week. There are also, on average, two voice meetings for the whole committee per month; members working on a particular case or initiative may also choose to hold a meeting.
Communication: Per the UCoC, English knowledge is not required. While, the committee currently communicates primarily in English, committee members work to support any members with lower levels of English knowledge. Committee work currently happens primarily on the U4C wiki and Discord; UCoC members also need access to the Volunteer Response Ticketing system.
Anticipated work: Over the next year, the U4C will continue to establish systems and processes in order to handle its preventive and responsive work. Additionally there has been a steady increase in U4C cases over the past year and this is expected to continue increasing. Candidates are encouraged to read past cases to learn more about the kinds of requests the U4C receives. There is a lot of opportunity for U4C members to work on other initiatives that interest them within the U4C's jurisdiction.
Questions for candidates
[edit]Eligible voters can ask questions to all candidates on the Questions page. Voters are asked to post no more than 2 (two) relevant questions per candidate (in total; i.e. all questions a candidate needs to answer are counted), and keep them as concise and relevant as possible. Candidates are asked to answer as briefly and simply as possible.

Voting
[edit]Voting process
[edit]Per section 2.5. of the U4C charter:
- Voting is conducted by secret ballot, with voters leaving support, oppose and neutral votes for each candidate.
- Voters are able to vote for candidates from all regions.
- Neutral votes will not count.
- Voter eligibility will be decided by the Elections Committee (created by the U4C).
- The candidate must have 60% or higher of votes as calculated by support/(support + oppose). After this qualification:
- For each candidate the number of opposes will be subtracted from the number of supporters. The candidates with the highest difference will be elected to each seat.
- If two candidates have the same difference then the percentage calculated by support/(support + oppose) will be used as a tiebreaker.
