Hi everyone,
I am happy to share that earlier this year, the Wikimedia Foundation
Board
of Trustees approved our newest Wikimedia chapter - Wikimedia Korea!
For more information about our newest Wikimedia chapter, Wikimedia
Korea,
please see the announcement on the Wikimedia Foundation website:
https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/04/23/wikimedia-korea-new-chapter-affil...
I want to congratulate the new chapter and recognize their
commitment,
efforts, and time involved in moving through the chapter recognition process over the past year. From their work building partnerships
with
universities, to supporting and training new editors in South Korea,
we
look forward to seeing the impactful work from our community members
in
South Korea as they advance in their new affiliate role.
As many of you know, this is our first chapter approval in several
years
since the newest Wikimedia affiliate approval processes were put in
place.
This marks a new moment in the history of our Wikimedia movement affiliates. The Board appreciates the amazing work coming from these
user
groups around the world, and is inspired to see how far some of these groups have come in terms of their impact both on our movement and
their
local communities. Indeed, we should all be proud of the impact our affiliates continue to have on our projects, our vision, and the
world
around us.
Any affiliate interested in becoming a chapter or thematic
organization
must have at least two years of activities and experience as a user
group
before applying. Please check out the user group creation guide to
get
a
user group started - it is meant to be very easy: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_user_groups/Creation_guide
You can find a lot more information about our movement affiliates
model
on
Meta:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_movement_affiliates/Models
You may also reach out to the Affiliations Committee with questions
or
to
begin the approval process for your group: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee Please join me in congratulating Wikimedia Korea for this important achievement and thanking the members of the Affiliations Committee
and
Wikimedia Foundation staff who supported and worked with them during
this
long process.
Kind regards,
María
