"Local chapter/s" omdirigerar hit. För att se andra möjliga användningar, se Chapters, en förgreningssida.

Wikimedia-lokalavdelningar är självständiga organisation grundade att stötta och främja Wikimedia-projekten inom ett specifikt geografiskt område (ett land, i de flesta fallen). Liksom Wikimedia Foundation (Wikimedia-stiftelsen), strävar de efter att "stärka och engagera människor över hela värden runt att samla och utveckla pedagogiskt innehåll under en fri licens, eller i allmän egendomen, samt att sprida den effektivt och globalt". Det finns för närvarande 37 lokalavdelningar, med åtminstone en på varje bebodd kontinent.

Det här sidan listar nuvarande och planerade Wikimedia-lokalavdelningar. Vänligen se steg-för-steg-guiden för skapande av lokalavdelningar samt FAQ:n för rörelsens olika organisationer för mer information. En Anslutningskommitté ger råd och hjälper till vid grundandet av nya organisationer samt stöttar dem.

Vissa lokalavdelningar har ett kontor.

Lokalavdelningar som diskuteras

Chapters in active preparation to become a chapter. You should add here any chapter that is under discussion to be started up. Please provide link to a page (in meta) with more detailed information (at best with a short summary in English) and provide a contact for questions about the present state.

Key

A yellowish background means organizations are currently in active contact (as of the "last update" date) with the Affiliations Committee;

A light grey background means awaiting an update (from the proposed organization? from AffCom?)

A light blue background means the AffCom has asked the Board to approve the organization's formation.

Ideas for chapters

See the movement affiliates FAQ to understand what a local chapter is, and what it entails to create a new one. If you wish to create a local chapter, follow the step-by-step chapter creation guide. In case you have any questions, contact the Affiliations Committee.

I Europa

• Wikimedia Galiza – In discussion and calling for supporters. Discussion and planning is at w:gl:Wikipedia:Wikimedia Galiza.

I Nordamerika

• Wikimedia United States Coalition – mailing list

• Wikimedia Cascadia – a chapter in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon and Washington and possibly including Northern California and/or British Columbia)

• Wikimedia Florida – Possibility of a chapter for Florida

• Wikimedia Oklahoma – Possibility of a chapter for Oklahoma

• Wikimedia Texas – Possibility of a chapter for Texas and the south-central United States

I Asien

• Wikimedia Mainland China – The discussion of establishing a chapter started in 2009 on Chinese Wikipedia. The discussion was ended due to the political problems and no possibility to legally incorporated. While the discussion restarted in 2013 when WMF start to recognize User Group, and the Wikimedia User Group China has been recognized since August 2014. There is no further plan for forming a chapter before the NPO can be freely incorporated in mainland China.

• Wikimedia Japan – 設立の是非について投票中です。 The page reads "There are currently no active arguments to establish a local Japanese chapter, mainly because very few Japanese language community members are interested in it. Lack of legal knowledge and accounting skills among the community is also a large contributing factor."

• Wikimedia Nepal विकिमिडिया नेपाल is recognized as a user group Wikimedians of Nepal on 29th May, 2013. Now it is in the way of becoming national chapter. Wikipedia was begun in Nepal on June 3, 2002 with Nepali Wikipedia. Now Wikipedias are avaible in five languages spoken in Nepal. Wikimedia Nepal begun regular meetups and discussions from 17 July 2010. It has been organizing outreach and various programs to promote Wikipedia in Nepal.

Sändlista och wikis

Apart from public mailing lists (most notably Chapters-reports) and websites listed elsewhere, there are two main private channels for communication and coordination among chapters, which existing chapters must follow and participate in:

• Internal wiki and Internal-l – Local Chapters, board and officers coordination: each chapter can subscribe an unlimited number of board members (as of 13th August 2010), with an e-mail to the list admin by the president; additional members can be subscribed following the usual procedure (endorsement by a subscribed person + consensus on wiki);

• Chapters wiki and chapters mailinglist for discussions and decisions among chapters: each chapter can subscribe unlimited board members (and some staffer) and an email by the president of the chapter to the list admins with the list of email addresses to add/remove is the usual process; there are also other lists for working groups, generally subsets of the previous one, apart some more open lists (e.g. GLAM).
