Wikimedians of the Caribbean User Group




The Wikimedians of the Caribbean Usergroup is a Wikimedia user group for the peoples of the Caribbean and the Caribbean Diaspora, bringing together cultures and languages, and also the islands with their diasporas. If you are interested in participating in some capacity, please indicate that by adding your username to the Interested in Participating section below and/or fill out this form.

Objectives

As with Wikimedians of the Levant, there has not been sufficient participation to establish individual groups, so it has been decided to pursue a group to support the whole region. There is particular interest in supporting languages like Haitian Creole that are particular to the region, developing content covering underrepresented regional topics, and also to support offline access for areas that do not otherwise have access.

History

Early group formed at Wikiconference North America, at Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, October 20th, 2018.
