Hi everyone!
I'm very happy to announce that the Affiliations Committee has recognized [1] Wikimedians of Turkic Languages User Group [2] as a Wikimedia User Group. The group aims to promote and participate in the projects offered by the Wikimedia Foundation and to organize the Turkic community. One of its core missions is to aid and encourage people to collect, develop and disseminate knowledge and other educational, cultural and historic content in the public domain or other licenses that allows everyone to freely use the knowledge, and to distribute and modify said content for free. Also, a main goal is to develop Wikimedia projects in Turkic languages, as well as to help and encourage Turkic-speaking users and communities.
Please join me in congratulating the members of this new user group!
Regards,
Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight
Chair, Affiliations Committee
