We were continued with wiki activities in Nepal though we were isolated from the mainstream Wikimedia Movement, now we are not isolated any more. This affiliation has encouraged us to move with new energy. Hi Deryck, we are continuing with the activities (there are some running programs like WEP and WLM) in this transition. Although we are facing problems because we are not legally registered in any govt. entity in Nepal. Even in getting funds from WMF. The by-laws is approved by the WMN Board and now is under lawyer's review. We'll translate it immediately after the revision and begin process to get affiliation as National Chapter. Thanks to all Asian friends for your moral support to us and Affcom members for this achievement.

Please join me in welcoming this new group into the fold of Wikimedia entities, and let's celebrate their success and hard work as Wikipedia turns eleven in Nepal! == Wikimedians of Nepal == Wikimedians of Nepal <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Nepal> is a group of enthusiastic Nepali Wikimedians working towards developing and promoting Wikimedia projects in Nepal. They've been actively working to help expand the community, launch projects in more languages of Nepal and promote and support the existing ones. The group is working towards chapterhood, and have a good chance of attaining that status this year. Granting them user group recognition allows the movement to express its appreciation for their hard work even while they are working on the bureaucratic aspects of meeting the requirements of chapterhood. The timing is fortuitous in that the group is going to mark the 11th anniversary of Wikipedia in a Nepali language on 3 June, next Monday. Ganesh, the group's interim president has been invited to this year's Milan conference, where he gave a comprehensive overview of the group's history, its projects (including a successful 'wikiwomen" programme) and its ambitions. The slides are at: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/45/WMNepal_WMC_2013.pdf The Affiliations Committee's recognition<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee/Resolu… valid until 28 May 2014, or until they are recognized as a chapter. == Wikimedia User Groups == Wikimedia User Groups are one of the three new types of affiliations created last year to empower volunteers wanting to conduct offline work and provide them recognition from the Wikimedia movement. User group status is meant to be an easy form of affiliation, where the main requirements are an agreed goal, plans for offline work, at least three people participating and a public wiki page with all the relevant information). Under the movement roles recommendations<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_affiliation_mod… , user groups are to be recognized in a quick and easy process directly by the Affiliations Committee, for a fixed, renewable time-period and they are to enjoy limited trademark use and simplified access to grants.
