[APAC-Discuss] APRALO election details on main ALAC RALO page

[Silvia Vivanco]

Dear Holly et all,
The APRALO Wiki page created for the Chair and Vice Chair election can be found in the main  APRALO WIKI under :
ANNOUNCEMENTS AND APRALO INFORMATION

§   2013 APRALO Elections Workspace-<https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/2013+APRALO+Election+call+-+APRALO+Chair%2C+Vice-Chair+and+Secretariat> Nominations now open through 3 May 2013!

 *   2013-2015 APRALO ALAC Representative Workspace<https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/2013-2015+APRALO+ALAC+Representative+Selection+Workspace> - Nominations now open through 23 May 2013
<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=40931670>

See:
https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/2013-2015+APRALO+ALAC+Representative+Selection+Workspace

The page Maureen is pointing out is a WIKI which was created to consolidate All RALO elections happening in 2013. And I will input the APRALO information there as well.

Regarding your point regarding  the list of all APRALO ALS is under   APRALO ALSs<https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+ALSes> see: https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+ALSes (List ALS with logos) and
http://www.atlarge.icann.org/applications?tid_1=161&tid_2=791
Regarding your point re the no more creating links without tying them back to the place people will go to look for them.  If it's too hard to find stuff, they give up.   One way to find links is to go to the main APRALO WIKI and from there you have an overview of what is important, including the latest information and the child pages.
See below.

Hi Maureen - and everyone

This is exactly my complaint, and what others like Carlton have recently expressed frustration over.  If we are to make use of the website as a communications tool, then there should be clear and logical paths from the ICANN home page, to groups, to ALAC and then to the RALOs.
One of my recent frustrations is that the link from the APRALO page to the ALS structures for APRALO goes nowhere - and I spent a futile 15 minutes trying to find the page that lists APRALO ALSs - and gave up.  Now for an APRALO election, the link isn't from the APRALO page.  If we are serious about Internet users, then we should at the least make it easy for all of us to communicate using the Internet.

PLEASE - no more creating links without tying them back to the place people will go to look for them.  If it's too hard to find stuff, they give up.

Hi Silvia

It is really difficult to find the wiki for the APRALO nominations.

I did however, locate the main ALAC page which already lists details of LACRALO elections (link below)  does not give ANY information about proposed nominees for the APRALO Chair, Vice Chair or Secretariat; and the timeline is also not indicated.

https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+ALAC+and+RALO+Elections%2C+Selections+and+Appointments+2013

As this was the one page I could find, then it would be helpful to have the APRALO information on it.. perhaps with a link to the other wiki page wherever it is...

Maureen
