* a collection of projects ([[Wikipedia]], [[Wiktionary]], [[Wikimedia Commons]], [[Wikinews]], [[Wikiquote]], [[Wikidata]], [[Wikivoyage]], [[Wikisource]], [[Wikispecies]], [[Wikiversity]], [[Wikibooks]], [[Incubator]]...);
* a collection of activities (conferences, workshops, wikiacademies, etc.);
* a collection of organizations ([[Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia chapters|Wikimedia chapters]], etc.), as well as some free electrons (individuals without chapters) and similar-minded organizations.
