Hi everyone,
A happy new year to everyone who celebrates it today from the Wikimedia Stewards User Group.
Please find our annual report here:https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Stewards_User_Group/Reports/…
As the number of stewards, the global group of users with complete access to the wiki interface on all public Wikimedia wikis, is constantly decreasing, we invite all qualified users to nominate themselves in the upcoming annual stewards elections in February. The international team is looking for candidates interested in crosswiki and admin activities, functionary and tech work and/or multiple languages, in particular from unterrepresented regions or the world. More information will be shared soon.
If you have any further questions about the stewards, the user group or the upcoming elections, please do not hesitate to contact me, the future Election Committee or any other steward.
Best,DerHexer
Dear Wikimedians,
find the 2023 report of the Commons Photographers User Group at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Commons_Photographers_User_Group…
The year 2023 saw a good level of activities for the Commons
Photographers. Members organized online and in-person events, gave
presentations about photography-related topics, organized photo walks,
and participated in Wikimania in Singapore. In order to increase
awareness about Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons in Nepal, we formed a
partnership with the Maithili Wikimedians. Our group also grew
substantially in size, with 197 members being registered at the end of
the year.
Regards,
Andrea
