Hi all,
We have recently published our Annual Report 2016. If you would like to learn more about examples of Wikimedia Deutschland's projects and programmes from last year, you might want to read about one or more of the following:
* our new editors campaign, * our successes with Wikidata, * our Technical Wishes project, * our achievements in the political and legal field, * our work for Open Education & Open Science * our growth in membership numbers * our regionalisation efforts * our work for the international movement
Inspired by the WMF's recent Annual Reports, we have – for the first time – created a visually appealing, responsive online version that also works pretty well on mobile. https://2016.wikimedia.de/en
If you rather prefer to print it, please be patient: We will publish the oldschool PDF version and link it on the meta [[Reports]] page next week.
Happy reading, Nicole
Wow, very impressive report overall!
I particularly love the videos. They are quite informative, the ones with real people are a great introduction to what editing entails, the animated ones are entertaining and inspiring. These videos imo deserve to be used on many of our projects, localized or subtitled in many languages.

Does "15,000 new members to the organization" mean that everyone who edits DE WP is a member? If so that is amazing :-)

No, it means 15,000 new (paying) members of the association Wikimedia Deutschland.
However, we also try to recruit new authors/editors via banner campaigns and are running several of them throughout the year. If you are interested in this, consider joining Verena's session at Wikimania about "On-Wiki Campaigning to Engage New Editors"[1]

Wow, very impressive report overall!
I particularly love the videos. They are quite informative, the ones with real people are a great introduction to what editing entails, the animated ones are entertaining and inspiring. These videos imo deserve to be used on many of our projects,
localized
or
subtitled in many languages.

-----Original Message----- From: WikimediaAnnounce-l [mailto:wikimediaannounce-l- bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Nicole Ebber Sent: Thursday, June 01, 2017 6:23 To: wikimediaannounce-l Subject: [Wikimedia Announcements] Wikimedia Deutschland: Annual
Report
2016
Hi all,
We have recently published our Annual Report 2016. If you would
like
to
learn more about examples of Wikimedia Deutschland's projects and programmes from last year, you might want to read about one or more
of
the
following:
- our new editors campaign,
- our successes with Wikidata,
- our Technical Wishes project,
- our achievements in the political and legal field,
- our work for Open Education & Open Science
- our growth in membership numbers
- our regionalisation efforts
- our work for the international movement
Inspired by the WMF's recent Annual Reports, we have – for the
first
time
– created a visually appealing, responsive online version that also
works
pretty well on mobile. https://2016.wikimedia.de/en
If you rather prefer to print it, please be patient: We will
publish
the
oldschool PDF version and link it on the meta [[Reports]] page next
week.
Happy reading, Nicole

Yes, that is a really great result. Switzerland is like a next-door neighbor. If Germany can do it, we should be able to do it as well ! Lets say that our goal for Switzerland should be 1'500 new members... :)

No, it means 15,000 new (paying) members of the association Wikimedia Deutschland.
Just to be clear - these are basically donors, not volunteers, right?
However, we also try to recruit new authors/editors via banner campaigns and are running several of them throughout the year. If you are interested in this, consider joining Verena's session at Wikimania about "On-Wiki Campaigning to Engage New Editors"[1]
I look forward to hearing about this but won't be at Wikimania -will there be anything published about it ? :)
This annual report, and the numbers in it, are indeed very cool :-) Congratulations.
I just want to add a clarification about the membership numbers, since that is getting a lot of attention in this thread. Not because these numbers are incorrect, or bad, but that other Chapters might be feeling upset that they aren't also achieving such high numbers.
WM-De has, according to this report, 50,000 members in total https://2016.wikimedia.de/en/report/members However, what the other chapters need to understand - so they don't feel bad by comparison! - is that the Germany system has two methods of membership. These are [as it been described to me by a German-speaker, I apologise if I'm missing a nuance of language]: - "Aktives Mitglied", the members with voting rights - "Fördermitglied", the people who become a member when they donate, but have no voting rights. The English version of the report uses the terms "active" and "sponsoring". Other chapters only have this first group.
The German-language Wikipedia article about WMDE itself describes the ratio between these in April 2015 as 1.921 active : 18.402 sponsoring. https://de. wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Deutschland#Mitgliederversammlung
Another factor is that, unlike WM-De, other Chapters do not have direct ownership of the fundraising banners and therefore they cannot promote membership to donors in their country as easily. Finally, Germany also has a strong cultural tradition of membership-associations which is not necessarily the case in other countries.
All this is not to criticise WM-De, but to say to other chapters that they should not feel bad by comparison, because these situations are not directly comparable.

One clarification to Liam's very precise explanations: Donors do not automatically become "Fördermitglieder"/sponsoring members by donating, i. e. not every donor becomes a member. You have to actively choose membership. If anybody is interested to learn more at Wikimania, I just submitted an informal Birds of a Feather session to which you can sign up here * https://wikimania2017.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/50,000_Members_%26_WMDE Best Michael
