Dear EduWiki Community,
In January 2026, Wikipedia marks 25 years of open knowledge, collaboration, and global impact. To celebrate this milestone, the EduWiki Hub https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_%26_Education_User_Group/EduWiki_Hub will host a special Wikipedia@25 celebration on 22 January 2026, taking place during our first Knowledge Showcase https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Wikipedia_%26_Education_User_Group_Showcase/January_2026 of the year.
As part of the celebration, we are inviting members of the Wikimedia and education communities to share short creative contributions of 1-5 minutes, such as poems or brief performances reflecting on how they have contributed to Wikipedia, how Wikipedia has contributed to them, or how they have used Wikipedia in education. These creative reflections will be featured during the celebration segment of the Knowledge Showcase as we honour the people and stories behind 25 years of Wikipedia.
If you are interested in contributing, please upload your creative ideas to this folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1M5JqIHv6cF1FJg9KX2tPsUh8UgryCns8?usp=sharing with your name/username as the title or contact bukola.james@wmnobrasil.org directly if you would love to be featured live during the showcase with a brief description of your proposed contribution.
Participation in the celebration is part of the EduWiki Knowledge Showcase, and attendance requires registration https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:RegisterForEvent/2716. You can register for the event via the Meta page here: EduWiki Knowledge Showcase, January 2026 https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Wikipedia_%26_Education_User_Group_Showcase/January_2026
We look forward to celebrating Wikipedia@25 with you and highlighting the impact of open knowledge in education and beyond.
