Identity and style
This page lists our guidelines for Corporate Identity and communication.
They should comply with:
- The international rules of the Wikimedia Foundation.
- The Belgian law
- Our own policies (Statutes (en), RIO)
Name of the organisation
[edit]We name our organisation systematically as follows, as described in our Statutes (en):
- (fr) Wikimédia Belgique
- (nl) Wikimedia België
- (de) Wikimedia Belgien
- (en) Wikimedia Belgium
Since we are a tri-lingial country, we will use the right name in each of the languages, i.e. we will avoid to use the name Wikimedia Belgium in a national-language document.
- On all official documents we need to mention the suffix asbl/vzw/VoG/NPO and our Enterprise number BE 0563.775.480
Avoid using the acronym WMBE on its own, because it is difficult to understand for outsiders.
Languages
[edit]In principle we want to offer all pages/communication translated into 4 languages. In a first phase it is possible that one page is only available in 1 single language. Please bear with us; translation is a time consuming activity (and your help and expertise might be required)!
Logos
[edit]Language specific logos have been designed:
-
(fr)
-
(nl)
-
(de)
-
(en)
Use one logo, depending on the language of the document. In an international context, use the English version.
You can also use the templates {{logoleft}} {{wmbelogo}} {{logoright}} to automate the language selection.
Web site
[edit]The only web site we communicate outside is https://wikimedia.be
We implement our identity consistently also on Facebook, Twitter, and other social platforms.
Copyright
[edit]Mention the proper licenses when using media files.
Our e-mail domain is wikimedia.be. The official contact address is infowikimedia.be which is also used as official sender address for announcements.
