Ohio Wikimedians User Group/pl
About
Welcome to the Ohio Wikimedians User Group, an official Wikimedia user group in the U.S. state of Ohio. The goal of the user group is to support and develop the Wikimedia movement and community in Ohio.
Objectives
- To promote Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects within Ohio.
- To collaboratively improve the quality of Wikimedia project content through edit-a-thons, workshops, educational programs, and more.
- To support any Wikimedia-oriented events or organizations operating within Ohio.
- To establish a sense of community within our group.
History
Prior to the formation of the Ohio Wikimedians, there have been a handful of Wikimedia meetups and events in Ohio that typically occurred in Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati. In 2011, the formation of Wikimedia Ohio was attempted, though the project is now defunct and inactive. This Ohio Wikimedians User Group was created in July 2016 as the spiritual successor to that group, working to bring together Wikimedians from the entire state of Ohio together as a community.
The founding members of the group include members of Wikipedia Connection, a student organization at Ohio State University, as well as other Wikimedians from Ohio.
