Status: Draft

Text copied from 2020-21 report for now. 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

During the 2021–22 fiscal year, Wikimedia DC program activity focused in a single principal program area, institutional partnership.

Consistent with past program results, collaborative editing events, such as edit-a-thons and editing workshops, comprised the bulk of our institutional partnership program activity. Over the course of the fiscal year, Wikimedia DC supported a total of 30 events in partnership with 22 institutional partners, which included a broad spectrum of cultural, academic, and government institutions, non-governmental organizations, and other groups:

update to list of new year and appropriate links

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, most of these events were held online, not in person.

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. The minutes of the minutes are online.
