Revision as of 01:02, 12 October 2022
Status: Draft
Let's fill in this draft annual report and compare to our past reports and to reports to WMF by other affiliates. There are too many comparison cases to read them all, but let's pick a few and just consider. We want our report to serve well as a report to the public and our members and also as an official report to WMF to sustain our status as an affiliate.
- Reports by other affiliates
- Our past Annual activity reports and Annual financial reports -- always paired, one each, each year
My ideas for changes since previous years:
- (1) add a paragraph about nonprofit status
- (2) a new section describing research grants, because that’s now a sizable fraction of our revenue and activity, perhaps inside the Institutional Partnerships section
- (3) add pictures? or something else lively? name our officers explicitly? use Movement Strategy terminology more?
- Let's look at what other chapters do. The big ones file huge reports. We can’t do that ; but maybe we could learn from what they are doing? What should we change?
- We can ask questions about what WMF wants at wadportal@wikimedia.org
- We are supposed to email about them to a list serve, it seems, and submit them to a “data portal,” here

Status: Draft
This report describes the activities of Wikimedia District of Columbia during Fiscal Year 2021–22, covering the period from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
Programs
Institutional partnerships and public editathons
Wikimedia DC continues to hold collaborative editing events, which is our main institutional partnership program activity. Most of these are public events organized by our own staff, and they usually offer our Wikipedia training. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, most of these events were held online, not in person.
During the 2021–22 fiscal year, Wikimedia DC run or supported 22 events in partnership with 18 institutional partners, which included a broad spectrum of cultural, academic, and government institutions, and non-governmental organizations:
- American Statistical Association (History of Statistics interest group)
- ART library deco (Feb 24)
- Charles Sumner School Museum and Archive (Jan 29)
- City of Fairfax Regional Library
- Delaware Art Museum
- Embassy of Sweden to the United States
- National Gallery of Art (September 24)
- National Trust for Historic Preservation (March 31)
- The Peale, Baltimore (Aug 15)
- Protect Democracy (Nov 2021)
- Smithsonian American Art Museum
- Smithsonian American Women's History Initiative
- Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center
- Smithsonian Institution Libraries and Archives
- Smithsonian National American History Museum (Feb 1 & more)
- Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum (Oct 2021)
- Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
- USDA's National Agricultural Library
- don't think we had these next few partners this year, but let's recheck
We helped arrange Wikimedia Hackathon days (around May 21) and a Pittsburgh Wikimania meetup in person (circa Aug 11). Wiki Science Competition
Research projects
Wikimedia DC has been invited to participate in research efforts. Research-related grants now form a sizable part of our activity.
Conferences
WikiConference North America 2021 and prep for 2022.
Organizational development
We had a big change of officers in January. Longtime president Kirill Lokshin, who understood all our systems, has moved on. Peter Meyer is now the president, John Sadowski vice president, Diane Shaw secretary, and Sara Snyder treasurer. The new officers have been learning their roles and systems. Our Institutional Partnership Manger, Ariel Cetrone, continues in her position.
The chapter had fallen behind on tax filings, and has now caught back up, with annual tax forms on its web site.
The Wikimedia DC Board of Directors held 6 meetings during the 2021–22 fiscal year, on November 15, 2021; January 23, 2022; February 7, 2022; May 16, 2022; July 18, 2022; and September 26, 2022.
