History

Members of the Wikimedians of the Uzbek language User Group hold an e-meetup

Following the closure of the Wikimedians of Uzbekistan Community in 2018, a group of contributors led by Nataev started discussions on establishing a user group of Uzbek speakers. The previous group was primarily aimed at Wikimedians living in Uzbekistan and was largely inactive throughout its short existence.

The new group, on the other hand, is much broader in scope and brings together dedicated Wikimedians living in many different countries with decades of editing experience in between them. The first meeting of the new group was held over Zoom on May 17, 2020. Another meetings was organized on September 17, 2020. Three days later, on September 20, 2020, on behalf of the group Nataev applied to the WMF Affiliations Committee be recognized as a Wikimedia Affiliate. The group was officially approved by the Affiliations Committee on December 4, 2022.
