The Wikimedia movement is the totality of people, activities, and values which revolve around Wikimedia sites and projects:

a collection of values shared by individuals (freedom of speech, knowledge for everyone, community sharing etc.);
a collection of activities (conferences, workshops, wikiacademies etc.);
a collection of organizations (Wikimedia Foundation, Wikimedia chapters etc.), as well as some free electrons (individuals without chapters) and similar-minded organizations.

Shared values
