Dear everyone,

Help us collect the 15 best things about the Wikimedia movement (and Wikipedia) from the last 15 years!

Community members all over the world and the Communications team, have been preparing to celebrate the start of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia movement. On January 15, 2016, it will have been 15 years of collaborating, collecting, verifying, and making knowledge free for the whole world.

As part of our annual report, we plan to once again share stories -- this time celebrating the joy of knowledge and discovery. We want to include some of the most amazing, strange, cool, and unbelievable things about the last 15 years.

There is a page started on Meta.[1] We know they balance to enWP right now, so we are especially appreciative of additions about the rest of the movement. Please add things we've missed, make corrections to anything that's not correct, and commenting on your favorite.

Thanks so much for taking the time to improve this!

The WMF Communications team
