Assumptions Amounts for 2011-12, 2010-11, 2009-10 and 2008-09 reflect management reporting, not generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP amounts are noted where they appear. Management reporting reflects primarily cash-basis revenues and spending. As such it excludes non-cash items such as in-kind amounts and depreciation and includes total spending for capital items. Revenue projections and plan do not include ancillary revenue such as interest income, speaker fees, misc. income. Restricted amounts do not appear in this plan. As per the Gift Policy, restricted gifts above 100K are approved on a case-by-case basis by the WMF Board.

Strategic Context In 2010-11, the Wikimedia Foundation embarked upon Year One of our five-year strategic plan. 2012-13 is Year Three, which will be the midpoint of the execution phase. Years One and Two were spent capacity-building, conducting research and analysis, and starting work aimed at reaching our targets. In general, we are now making reasonably good progress towards targets, except on the participation issue, where it looks like editor decline has slowed, but not yet been halted or reversed. This is our single biggest challenge.

Strategy Plan 2015 Targets (for reference)
1) Increase the total number of people served to 1 billion. 2) Increase the number of Wikipedia articles we offer to 50 million. 3) Ensure information is high quality by increasing the percentage of material reviewed to be of high or very high quality by 25 percent. 4) Encourage readers to become contributors by increasing the number of total editors per month who made > 5 edits to 200,000. 5) Support healthy diversity in the editing community by doubling the percentage of female editors to 25 percent and increasing the percentage of Global South editors to 37 percent.

How are we doing against the 2015 targets? The strategic plan goals represent "Big Hairy Audacious Goals." More important than hitting the exact 2015 numbers is the answer to the question: Are we making an impact? If not, what needs to change? 1) Readership continues to grow. We've successfully overhauled our mobile experience, increasing mobile page views to 2.08 billion in April 2012, up 187% from 726 million in March 2011. We've established the first "Wikipedia Zero" partnerships to enable mobile access without data charges for millions of people in the Global South. The release of our Android app which has been adopted rapidly positions us well to serve the largest segment of the smartphone market. Upshot: We're on a good track, but reaching a billion people by 2015 will require breakthroughs in mobile access through programs like WP Zero. 2) Article Growth: The number of Wikipedia articles continues to grow. It has reached 22.3 million articles in March 2012, up from 18.8 million articles in March 2011. The Global Education Program is now the largest-ever systematic effort in the Wikimedia movement to boost high quality content creation, with a projected additi
