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 projects (Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikimedia Commons, Wikinews, Wikiquote, Wikidata, Wikivoyage, Wikisource, Wikispecies, Wikiversity, Wikibooks, Incubator, 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.
- a collection of values shared by individuals (freedom of speech, knowledge for everyone, community sharing, etc.);
- a collection of activities around Wikimedia projects:
- Wikipedia, in more than 303 language versions,
- other content related wikis, such as Wikisource, Wikibooks or Wikidata,
- 'backstage' wikis or organisational wikis, such as this Meta-Wiki,
- conferences, workshops, wikiacademies etc. (offline activities);
Wikimedia organizations
- a collection of organizations, as well as some free electrons (individuals acting outside any group) and similar-minded organizations:
The Wikimedia Foundation
The owner of the trademark Wikimedia is the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF). Linked to the WMF are the Wikimedia Foundation's own organs and committees:
- board
- staff
- advisory board
- Independent Committees installed by the WMF board
Wikimedia stakeholders
More generally speaking, Wikimedia stakeholders may also be part of the Wikimedia movement, i.e. readers of Wikimedia content, donors, schools, GLAM , similar-minded institutions, and companies co-operating with the Wikimedia Foundation or other Wikimedia organizations.
