From 6 to 9 August 2025, it was held in Nairobi, Kenya. Wikimania 2025<\/strong>, the annual gathering of Wikimedians from around the world. On this occasion, although no Wikisphere member was able to travel to the event in person, we did have the opportunity to attend virtually. In addition, Wikisphere was included in the poster session<\/a> and in the Lightning Talks<\/a> of this edition of Wikimania. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you know, in 2025 Wikisphere celebrates its tenth anniversary<\/strong>. A milestone of which we are very proud, which we already celebrated in March in a special editatone<\/a> in Madrid, and that we wanted to share with the whole Movement in Wikimania. So create this Poster<\/a> <\/strong>that condenses in one page the great achievements achieved thanks to our community of editors. In addition, our companions Wikieditors LX<\/strong> also presented their project in this edition of Wikimania with this Other Poster<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

> The campaign experience<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you know, in 2024 from Wikisphere we launched the thematic and asynchronous campaigns<\/strong>, a format that was very enthusiastically welcomed by many of you and that has meant a breakthrough in reducing the gender gap in Wikipedia<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this lightning talk<\/strong><\/a> titled Collaboration Over Competition: 1,000 Articles in One Year Through Asynchronous Gender-Focused Campaigns<\/strong><\/em> we had the opportunity to share with the entire Wikimedian community the importance of organizing these types of activities that encourage the sustained and autonomous participation away from any competitiveness<\/strong>. Something that is especially relevant for communities composed mainly of women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
