Hi, sorry for jumping in without following up the previous discussions.
Overall, I am +1 for this idea since it helps identify our user bases in
groups (organizations, schools, companies). It can be more than stats too.
Hopefully it provides incentives to attract new group users and
facilitates communications between them.
About the drafts, for the Affliates page, I think it'll be good to add
more WIIFM points. For example, to show support for Fedora and FOSS in
general, to make their contributions officially recognized, to learn from
experiences from peer organizations, etc.
About the badge, I'm not sure how the badge awarding process will work
(for groups)? Maybe it will be awarded to the current coordinators from
each group? It seems good since it encourages them to join FAS if they
have not. But we need to consider the "handover" from old coordinators to
new ones.
About the information to include, I'd suggest to add an (optional) image
as a showcase/proof. One image is worth a thousand words!
I prefer the approval process is lightweight. Say a wiki page for
submissions, and a few dedicated moderators review them and move the
information to an "official" wiki page. The latter page is thus not be
edited by others.
Finally, I kinda doubt "Affliates" the most right word in such context...
Is there a better way to say "Non-individual" users?
Regards,
Alick
