Wikimedia UK and Wici Cymru are delighted to announce the appointment of Robin Owain as our very first Wales Manager.
{{#ifeq: {{PAGENAME}} | Main Page | [[Category:Wikimedia UK]] | __NOINDEX__ }}
Robin will be taking a lead on our [[Llwybrau_Byw_-_Living_Paths_Project_Recruitment|Llwybrau Byw – Living Paths Project]]. He will also be leading our efforts to expand both Wicipedia Cymraeg and the English language Wikipedia in Wales.
 
Robin began work yesterday and his post will run for 12 months. Robin said: “Getting in there – into the thick of it – to show ordinary people what they can do gives me a buzz: everyone can be a writer, a publisher, a teacher and give something good back, through Wikipedia, to society.
 
“Being part of Wikimedia UK and Wici Cymru (two wonderful groups of people!) is the granite foundation on which I walk the living paths.”
 
Jon Davies, Chief Executive of Wikimedia UK, said: “Robin’s appointment as our Wales Manager is a vital part of our outreach strategy. Wicipedia Cymraeg is the world’s most popular Welsh language website and we are proud to support the Welsh language.
 
“Despite being half-Welsh my knowledge of the Welsh language is far too limited. I am pleased to be doing my small bit to help it thrive.” <span class="plainlinks">[http://blog.wikimedia.org.uk/2013/07/wikimedia-uk-yn-penodi-rheolwr-i-gymru-wikimedia-uk-appoints-wales-manager/ <nowiki>[</nowiki>Continues...<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</span>

Open knowledge for all

Our website

If you'd like to see what Wikimedia UK is working on, our website is the best place for our community of volunteers, donors and members to stay up to date.

About Wikimedia UK

The Wikimedia projects are special: they are written and curated by thousands of volunteers. They are also supported by voluntary donations, through Wikimedia UK, the Wikimedia Foundation and other international chapters.

Wikimedia UK is a charity registered in England and Wales that supports and promotes Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects such as Wikimedia Commons. Our mission is to help people and organisations create and preserve open knowledge, and to help provide easy access for all. We do this by supporting volunteer editors and contributors ('Wikimedians'), by working in partnership with cultural and educational institutions, by hosting training sessions and editing events, and by acting to advocate the benefits of open knowledge generally.

There are several ways to get involved in the charity's work. You can become a member for just £5 per year. You can volunteer to work with us in a variety of ways, both online and offline. You can also make a donation (and if you're a UK taxpayer, we can claim Gift Aid). Subscribe to our Friends' Newsletter to stay in touch. Click the buttons below to learn more.
