What the club is about[edit]
Wikipedia needs you!
Wikimedia Fan Club Kwara state University,is a hub for undergraduate, postgraduate students and staff of Kwara State University with the purpose of contributing to Wikimedia and her related projects. This club is based in the campus and run by the students with coordination from Wikimedia UG Nigeria (WUGN). The club promotes Wikimedia projects among the students through the execution of projects, meet-ups and regular edit-a-thons as a way of exposing the students to the movement.
The club will be hosting regular edit-a-thons, weekly workshops, photography events, and more that cater to and attract students, librarians, and other university faculty. We aim to reach and generate interest in members of the university who may not utilize and contribute to Wikimedia resources and to as well as create a community to support those who currently are involved with Wikipedia.
The club will be raising youths across the diversity of disciplines and cultures in the University community. It will help students know and contribute more to other Wikimedia projects.
Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge.
