Hi everyone,
This announcement is to confirm that the Wikimedia Terms of Use[1] have
been updated effective June 7. This follows the end of the spring
consultation[2] held between February and April, and approvals recorded by
the Executive Director and General Counsel[3] per the delegation of
policy-making authority from the Foundation Board of Trustees.[4]
As part of this update, we are also happy to announce that the project
license has been upgraded to CC BY-SA 4.0[5]! Technical work has already
started on this change.
I’d like to extend one last thank you to everyone who participated in the
conversation to help us complete this update to serve the community and the
projects going forward!
Best,
Jacob

Hi everyone,
I am delighted to share Wikimedia Deutschland’s annual report 2022.[1]
The report features our work to set knowledge free and the people
behind our diverse projects and successes, and our finances, of
course. It contains stories, short interviews, essays around themes
like our advocacy work, the founding of Wikimedia Europe and our
ongoing campaign “Public Money – Public Good!”, how we welcomed our
100,000th member, hosted the Wikimedia Summit for the first time since
the pandemic, and how we continue to engage with our volunteer
communities and to develop and strengthen Wikidata and Wikibase – to
name just a few of the exciting contents.
Take a look!
Nicole

Hi all,
Thank you for sharing this. Wikimedia Australia is very proud to have
Bianca work with us on this project. Later in July or August we'll post a
follow up and share to Diff where Bianca will go into detail about what she
found during her residency.
Thanks again, and I'll pass on all of the kind words.
