2019
En 2019, NEW a accueilli la Wikiconference North America annuelle (page de l'événement). Cet événement de trois jours s'est déroulé à Boston et Cambridge, avec plus de 300 participant(e)s, une visite culturelle et un editathon d'une journée au Musée des beaux-arts. Cinq salles ont été diffusées et enregistrées simultanément, et Commons propose une vaste galerie consacrée à l'évènement.
Lors de la conférence, une rencontre entre les Wikimédiens de Nouvelle-Angleterre a été organisée et un canal Slack (WikiNewEngland) a été créé. Il a été utilisé pour permettre aux organisateurs d'évènements et aux Wikimédiennes et Wikimédiens de toute la région de discuter des évènements et campagnes possibles.
Nous avons également planifié le tout premier programme de subventions WikiCred, qui a vu le jour en 2020.

- see also: goings-on
In 2021, we wrapped the first WikiCred microgrants program with a series of public online showcases, and began preparing for a future extension into other languages and geographies. We applied for a grant which was later approved in 2022.
Events were focused on online participation as well due to pandemic. Conferences, workshops, and onling projects included:
- January 8, 2021 Community members organized Wikidata and Public Domain Day workshops
- January 15, 2021 Wikimedians hosted Public Domain Day 2021 + 20th Anniversary celebration. New England authors and artists, as well as books, photographs, and other creative works associated with the U.S. Northeast were highlighted.
- Feb 22-26, 2021 New England Wikimedians conducted BIPOC in the Built, Virtual Editathon. Pages were created/edited for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) who have left their mark on the fields of art, architecture, art history, graphic design, activism, landscape architecture, urban planning, urban design, dance, and more connected to the built environment.
- Mar 20, 2021 Harvard Microbial Sciences Initiative x 500WS Wikipedia Editathon was organized by the community members.
- April 22, 2021 Environmental Health Editathon in celebration of Earth Day was organized. Edit-a-thon focused on environmental health.
- November 14, 2021 Community members hosted a Museum of Work and Culture Editathon
Community members also organized longer-form classes around Wikipedia and editing:
- At the Massachusetts College of Art and Design, Gabrielle Reed and Ezra Shales ran a class called Fysm: Ink, Caricature, We Spoof[2] – an art history of caricature. The clas built dashboards with WikiEdu in the second half, and focused on Wikipedia editing and adding images of the major artists that were represented. They hope to do something similar in the coming Fall.
Our community also published papers and essays about Wiki work:
- Two essays in the Wikipedia @ 20 book, published by MIT Press on PubPub
- "The Invisible Citation Commons", in the Commonplace journal

En 2022 et 2023, NEW a participé à la mise en œuvre de la nouvelle édition du programme de subventions Wikicred, né de la Wikiconference North America en 2019.
