Hello,
OSM Poland community is working on enriching map of border with Ukraine to help Ukrainian refugees access reception points.
https://dopomoha.pl/en/#map=7/50.538/24.055
Pull request can be submitted here. https://github.com/openstreetmap-polska/ua-2022-map
As Wikimedians, we could do something similar which can be of practical use to the Ukrainian people for now like enriching more information and data about Western Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Hungary etc. in Ukrainian language using which they might get some relief and can reorganize.
Changing the color of Wikipedia logo to Ukrainian flag have some major issues though. It might show our solidarity but it also can show that we take side in geopolitics questioning our neutrality. We hadn't changed color during other invasions in recent times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_invasions#2000%E2%80%93present . That might raise question about our biasness towards certain players. But anyway, it all depends on how the community thinks.
Regards, Bodhisattwa

More than 70 Russian Wikipedians wrote open letter to us on our village

where they condemned the invasion
This is really heartening. I am pleased - but not in the east surprised - to see the signatories include several people I count as friends.
