==The important questions==

;Where are we?
The UK community is doing fantastically. Over the last year we have had editing events with the British Library and British Museum, student groups forming at Imperial College London and Oxford University, a fast growing chapter and meetups such as the London meetup going as strong as ever. The UK Wikimedia chapter is continually trying to discover how to create interesting events of high quality that we can help happen.

;Who are we?
The biggest problem is that we know so little about ourselves. Everyone should have the opportunity to take part and get involved in the things that excite them. The idea behind this is to get a better idea at who our on wiki neighbours our, bring together people from every area of every project.
