'''Girl Geeks V. Wikimeet – An exercise in real-time collaboration''' - How do you get members of the public involved in Wikipedia? Moreover, how do you get women, a relative minority in the Wikipedia world, interested in editing when the thought had not crossed their minds before? Well, the Bristol Girl Geeks Vs. Wikimedia Event was a great example in how to meet this challenge – and the feedback we gained from the event suggests that this isn’t as difficult as it seems...

'''Wikimedia UK''' is the [[:m:Wikimedia chapter|Wikimedia chapter]] covering the [[:wikipedia:United Kingdom|United Kingdom]]. We exist to help collect, develop and distribute freely licensed knowledge (and other educational, cultural and historic material). We do this by bringing the Wikimedia community in the UK together, and by building links with UK-based cultural institutions, universities, charities and other bodies. We also represent UK-based Wikimedians to the Wikimedia Foundation and the global Wikimedia movement.
 
If you share our objectives, why not get involved? You can come along to one of our [[events]], join our <span class="plainlinks">[https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l email discussion list]</span>, and you can [[Membership|become a member]] for just £5.
 
Wikimedia UK is a not-for-profit Company Limited by Guarantee. We are supported entirely by voluntary donations (principally through the annual Wikimedia fundraiser). Please note that we are a separate organization from the [[:wmf:|Wikimedia Foundation]], and have no control over <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.wikipedia.org/ Wikipedia]</span> or any other <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.wikimedia.org/ Wikimedia Foundation projects]</span>.

It's easy to get involved with Wikimedia UK.
 
'''[[Membership|Join Wikimedia UK]]''': Membership is open to all and costs just £5 a year. While most members are editors of one (or more!) of the Wikimedia projects, you don't need to be. Members play a key role in shaping the future of the Chapter, by electing the Board and deciding our strategy at the AGM.</div>
 
'''[[Events]]''': We organise dozens of events each year, including meetups, Editathons, "Backstage Pass" events, workshops and conferences. Almost all our events are free of charge and open to the public - why not come along and join in? 
 
We are always interested to hear from new '''volunteers'''. If you have an idea you'd like to help make happen, or time and skills you would like to offer Wikimedia UK, please email any member of the [[Board]]. What's more, [[microgrants]] are also available to help support community initiatives.
