A Wikipedian in Residence is a role in which a Wikipedia editor[1], - known as a Wikipedian - accepts a placement with an institution, typically a gallery, library, archive or museum (GLAM), to facilitate Wikipedia entries related to that institution, encourage and assist it to release material under open licences, and to develop the relationship between the institution and the Wikipedia community.

This page lists the current Wikipedians in Residence who are supported by Wikimedia UK.
