Yes check.svg Done Ask for people who are interested in starting the chapter[edit]

First ideas for establishing Wikimedia local chapter in Macedonia were launched in 2006. On 25 December, 2009, on a Wikimeeting held in Skopje, three Wikimedians decided to gather a group, as an Initiative Board.

When we gathered 10 people (the minimum number), we decided to write the bylaws and to keep up with our intentions to include other interested people, as more as it's possible. The bylaws in Macedonian was finished at the beginning of March, and a week afterwards, the version in English.

The First General Assembly was held in Skopje, on 14 March, 2009 (started at 12:00 CEST). On the Assembly, the bylaws in Macedonian was presented, and the translation of the version in English has started. There also were released informations about the new members and the first collaborations with other organisations. It was also decided to make an application with the bylaws, and the current situation, and send it to the Chapters committee for approval.
