Recognition
[edit]The Wikimedians of Minnesota User Group was de-recognized in 2021 due to inactivity (partially the fault of the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic). In 2025 we successfully re-organized the user group but were not recognized as affiliated with the Wikimedia movement. We intend to apply again when recognition next opens.
