|} Som officiel støtteforening (chapter) for [[Wikimedia Foundation]] er Wikimedia Danmark forpligtet til at udarbejde årsrapporter (annual reports) hvori vi fortæller om vores arbejde i det foregående år. Rapporterne er på engelsk og giver et overblik over foreningens aktiviteter, ændringer i organisationen og vores finanser. Tidligt i foreningens levetid blev der også udarbejdet [[:Kategori:Quarterly reports|rapporter for hvert kvartal]] (quarterly reports), men denne praksis er ikke blevet videreført.
Kravet om årlige rapporter fremgår af Wikimedia Foundations [[meta:Wikimedia_chapters/Requirements|krav for chapters]] og fortsat årlig rapportering er nødvendigt for at foreningen fortsat anerkendes som officielt chapter.

[[Fil:Journalist og finn.jpg|thumb|Edit-a-thon om 1864 afholdt på [[Rigsarkivet]] i [[2013]]. {{byline|Villy Fink Isaksen}}]]
[[Fil:We can edit, København, opslagstavle, 2015-03-08.jpg|thumb|Opslagstavle ved We can edit edit-a-thon i 2015 i Den Frie Udstillingsbygning.]]
Et '''edit-a-thon''' er en [[begivenhed]] hvor [[Wikipedia]]-skribenter sætte sig sammen og skriver om et specifikt emne på Wikipedia.
Flere edit-a-thons er afholdt rundt omkring i verdenen, og [[Wikimedia Danmark]] (WMDK) har afholdt flere.
Den første edit-a-thon, hvor WMDK var involveret, var om 1864 centreret på [[Rigsarkivet]] den 8. juni [[2013]] hvor 11 nye artikler blev skrevet og 10 forbedret, — ikke blot på den danske Wikipedia, men også på den svenske og catalanske.<ref>https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Edit-a-thon_1864</ref>
Den 25. september 2013 var der Kommunevalgs-edit-a-thon på Frederiksbergs Rådhus med deltagelse af de to kommunalbestyrelsesmedlemmer Katrine Lester og Nikolaj Bøgh.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/events/170331223149743/</ref>
I 2014 havde vi edit-a-thon om Midtjyske Turistattraktioner i [[Aarhus]] og med [[KVINFO]] i [[København]].<ref>http://kvinfo.dk/om-kvinfo/skriv-ligestilling-ind-i-wikipedia</ref>
I [[2015]] havde vi vort hidtil største edit-a-thon, hvor [[Renegade Runners]] stod for arrangementet i Den Frie Udstillingsbygning, København.
Senere i 2015 medvirkede WMDK i en edit-a-thon i forbindelse med dokumentarfilmfestivalen CPH:DOX i efteråret 2015.
I [[2019]] havde vi vort hidtil største edit-a-thon. Det var organiseret sammen med alt.dk-delen af [[Egmont]]-virksomheden, var fokuseret på kvindebiografier og løb under titlen "[[Flere kvinder på wiki]]".
Nok omkring 100 personer deltog.
I 2020'erne har edit-a-thonerne primært, med få undtagelser, foregået under paraplyen [[Wiki Labs Kultur]] og går da under navnet [[skrivestue]].
Læs mere om edit-a-thon i en reportage i Politiken om 1864 edit-a-thon: [http://politiken.dk/kultur/tvogradio/ECE1992455/wikipedia-gaar-til-kamp-mod-redigeringskrig/ Wikipedia til kamp mod redigeringskrig] (også i papiravisen, 2. sektion, side 3) og i Dagbladet ''Informations'' [http://www.information.dk/527502 Den digitale virkelighed er skrevet af mænd], der rapporterede fra et edit-a-thon i [[2015]].

'''Annual report 2024'''
''draft''
== Organization ==
[[File:WMDK regnskab 2023-24.pdf|thumb|Financial statement of Wikimedia Denmark for 2023-2024.]]
Wikimedia Denmark is an organization in Denmark that supports Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects.
The board of five persons had been elected on the September 2023 at the general assembly<ref>[[Generalforsamling 2022]]</ref> and throughout 2024 had board meetings at approximately monthly intervals, usually online using Google Meet.
The board was elected again in September 2024 at the [[Generalforsamling 2024|General Assembly 2024]].
The chairman, Finn Årup Nielsen, continued on the post.
Wikimedia Denmark has a small and healthy economy with no staff. Income comes via member fees and the organization has had few expenses.
Wikimedia Denmark is a chapter in Wikimedia movement and the chapter is a member of the umbrella organizations [[Wikimedia Europe]] and the Danish organization [[OpenDenmark]].
We have also had online connections with affiliates from Northern Europe.
== Reponse to legislation ==
A Wikimedia Denmark boardmember responded to proposed Danish legislation about copyright.<ref>https://hoeringsportalen.dk/Hearing/Details/68225 and https://prodstoragehoeringspo.blob.core.windows.net/d3bc4b7f-9e70-4ced-8088-3c196c2f89a1/H%C3%B8ringssvar.pdf Page 66-67.</ref>
The boardmember responded in the capacity of a university researcher in Open Heritage data, but the response to the legislation were in line with the concerns that Wikimedia Denmark has/had.
For instance, the clarification of the copyright on photographs of artifacts that is no longer covered by copyright.
This has particularly relevance for photographs of paintings where the artist has been dead for more the seventy years.
== Events ==
[[File:Wiki Labs Kultur - annoncering.jpg|thumb|Announcement of Wiki Labs Kultur events in 2024.]]
[[File:Wiki Labs Kultur- Genopdagelse, genindskrivning - og kaffe.jpg|thumb|Sign at the ''SMK Fridays'' event: "Wiki Labs Culture - Rediscovery, rewriting - and coffee"]]
Throughout the year Wikimedia Denmark has co-organized editathons ("skrivestuer") within the framework of [[Wiki Labs Kultur]] (Wiki Labs Culture).
They have been organized together with Copenhagen cultural institutions and held for several years.
During the first half of 2024 we had three writing sessions at The Workers Museum in Copenhagen (Arbejdermuseet). They were a continuation of a series on that museum started in 2023 and focused on female workers.<ref>https://www.arbejdermuseet.dk/arrangement/vi-opdaterer-wikipedia/</ref>
The series continued in second half of 2024 and included a session at the National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen focused on the exhibition "Against All Odds – Historical Women and New Algorithms. 31 August – 8 December 2024".<ref>https://www.smk.dk/en/exhibition/against-all-odds/</ref>
The exhibition focused on females visual artists, mainly painters, from the Nordic countries.
This resulted in an anchor article on the Danish Wikipedia about the exhibition itself<ref>https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Against_All_Odds_%E2%80%93_Historiske_kvinder_og_nye_algoritmer</ref>
as well as extension or creation of articles about the female artists featured in the exhibition.
The onsite Wiki Labs Kultur meetings has been well-attended and succesfull, where new Wikipedians join and people attending previous meetings are attending again.
We usually start with a brief introduction to Wikipedia for newcomers and after that start editing in groups or individually.
A set of articles to work on is suggested and the cultural institution provides sources, mostly books, that the editors can use to source the Wikipedia articles.
We give away free (physical) badges after participation.
The events are free (gratis) but require registration.
The cultural institutions provide space and refreshments.
New Wiki Labs Kultur events have been schedule for 2025.
The Wiki Labs Kultur event in August 2024 on the National Gallery of Denmark coincided with ''SMK Fridays'', that is a special event at that gallery with art, talks, music and drinks. The editathon took place in the hallway, meaning that SMK Fridays participants that knew nothing of Wiki Labs Kultur could come and exerience an editathon and get information about Wikipedia.
Less succesful has been the online Wiki Labs Kultur meetings via Google Meet where it has been mostly established Wikipedians that join and and fairly few in numbers. This has led us to discontinue the online meetings.
To get an overview of the amount of work and Wikimedians associated with the event Wikimedia Denmark has utilized the Event Metrics tool at the Wmcloud.<ref>https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org specifically https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org/programs/783</ref>
This has been going on since 2022.
Our statistics may not be complete but for the data we recorded for 2024, we have data for seven individual events that shows we had between 8 to 17 participants editing.
== Fire at Børsen ==
[[File:Fra Københavns Børs rescued April 16th 2024.jpg|thumb|Carrying the large Krøyer painting away from the burning ''Børsen'' building]]
A historic landmark building in central Copenhagen, ''Børsen'', burned in April 2024.
A highly valuable large painting by P.S. Krøyer was saved from the burning building.
Back in May 2016, Wikipedians together with the Danish Chamber of Commerce, that occupies the building, had an event in ''Børsen'', "Wikidag på Børsen", where photos were taken of the interior, including some areas that were usually inaccessible for outsiders. Some of these were uploaded to Wikimedia Commons where there is a dedicated category for the event.<ref>https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikidag_p%C3%A5_B%C3%B8rsen</ref>
This included a photo of the Krøyer painting taken by seasoned Wikipedian and photographer Villy Fink Isaksen and it is now labeled as a quality image.<ref>https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fra_K%C3%B8benhavns_B%C3%B8rs.jpg</ref>
Isaksens photo was used in several newssites.<ref>For instance, https://www.weekendavisen.dk/samfund/spir and https://www.dw.com/de/d%C3%A4nemarks-notre-dame-moment-historische-b%C3%B6rse-in-flammen/a-68839358</ref>
Other photos from the event show parts of the building that no longer exists.

The board of five persons had been elected on the September 2023 at the general assembly<ref>[[Generalforsamling 2023]]</ref> and throughout 2024 had board meetings at approximately monthly intervals, usually online using Google Meet.
The board was elected again in September 2024 at the [[Generalforsamling 2024|General Assembly 2024]].
The chairman, Finn Årup Nielsen, continued on the post.
Wikimedia Denmark has a small and healthy economy with no staff. Income comes via member fees and the organization has had few expenses.
Wikimedia Denmark is a chapter in Wikimedia movement and the chapter is a member of the umbrella organizations [[Wikimedia Europe]] and the Danish organization [[OpenDenmark]].
We have also had online connections with affiliates from Northern Europe.
== Reponse to legislation ==
A Wikimedia Denmark boardmember responded to proposed Danish legislation about copyright.<ref>https://hoeringsportalen.dk/Hearing/Details/68225 and https://prodstoragehoeringspo.blob.core.windows.net/d3bc4b7f-9e70-4ced-8088-3c196c2f89a1/H%C3%B8ringssvar.pdf Page 66-67.</ref>
The boardmember responded in the capacity of a university researcher in Open Heritage data, but the response to the legislation were in line with the concerns that Wikimedia Denmark has/had.
For instance, the clarification of the copyright on photographs of artifacts that is no longer covered by copyright.
This has particularly relevance for photographs of paintings where the artist has been dead for more the seventy years.

[[File:Wiki Labs Kultur- Genopdagelse, genindskrivning - og kaffe.jpg|thumb|Sign at the ''SMK Fridays'' event: "Wiki Labs Culture - Rediscovery, rewriting - and coffee"]]
Throughout the year Wikimedia Denmark has co-organized editathons ("skrivestuer") within the framework of [[Wiki Labs Kultur]] (Wiki Labs Culture).
They have been organized together with Copenhagen cultural institutions and held for several years.
During the first half of 2024 we had three writing sessions at The Workers Museum in Copenhagen (Arbejdermuseet). They were a continuation of a series on that museum started in 2023 and focused on female workers.<ref>https://www.arbejdermuseet.dk/arrangement/vi-opdaterer-wikipedia/</ref>
The series continued in the second half of 2024 and included a session at the National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen focused on the exhibition "Against All Odds – Historical Women and New Algorithms. 31 August – 8 December 2024".<ref>https://www.smk.dk/en/exhibition/against-all-odds/</ref>
The exhibition focused on female visual artists, mainly painters, from the Nordic countries.
This resulted in an anchor article on the Danish Wikipedia about the exhibition itself<ref>https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Against_All_Odds_%E2%80%93_Historiske_kvinder_og_nye_algoritmer</ref>
as well as extension or creation of articles about the female artists featured in the exhibition.
The onsite Wiki Labs Kultur meetings has been well-attended and succesfull, where new Wikipedians join and people attending previous meetings are attending again.
We usually start with a brief introduction to Wikipedia for newcomers and after that start editing in groups or individually.
A set of articles to work on is suggested and the cultural institution provides sources, mostly books, that the editors can use to source the Wikipedia articles.
We give away free (physical) badges after participation.
The events are free (gratis) but require registration.
The cultural institutions provide space and refreshments.
New Wiki Labs Kultur events have been schedule for 2025.
The Wiki Labs Kultur event in August 2024 on the National Gallery of Denmark coincided with ''SMK Fridays'', that is a special event at that gallery with art, talks, music and drinks. The editathon took place in the hallway, meaning that SMK Fridays participants that knew nothing of Wiki Labs Kultur could come and exerience an editathon and get information about Wikipedia.
Less succesful has been the online Wiki Labs Kultur meetings via Google Meet where it has been mostly established Wikipedians that join and and fairly few in numbers. This has led us to discontinue the online meetings.
To get an overview of the amount of work and Wikimedians associated with the event Wikimedia Denmark has utilized the Event Metrics tool at the Wmcloud.<ref>https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org specifically https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org/programs/783</ref>
This has been going on since 2022.
Our statistics may not be complete but for the data we recorded for 2024, we have data for seven individual events that shows we had between 8 to 17 participants editing.
== Fire at Børsen ==
[[File:Fra Københavns Børs rescued April 16th 2024.jpg|thumb|Carrying the large Krøyer painting away from the burning ''Børsen'' building]]
A historic landmark building in central Copenhagen, ''Børsen'', burned in April 2024.
A highly valuable large painting by P.S. Krøyer was saved from the burning building.
Back in May 2016, Wikipedians together with the Danish Chamber of Commerce, that occupies the building, had an event in ''Børsen'', "Wikidag på Børsen", where photos were taken of the interior, including some areas that were usually inaccessible for outsiders. Some of these were uploaded to Wikimedia Commons where there is a dedicated category for the event.<ref>https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikidag_p%C3%A5_B%C3%B8rsen</ref>
This included a photo of the Krøyer painting taken by seasoned Wikipedian and photographer Villy Fink Isaksen and it is now labeled as a quality image.<ref>https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fra_K%C3%B8benhavns_B%C3%B8rs.jpg</ref>
Isaksens photo was used in several newssites.<ref>For instance, https://www.weekendavisen.dk/samfund/spir and https://www.dw.com/de/d%C3%A4nemarks-notre-dame-moment-historische-b%C3%B6rse-in-flammen/a-68839358</ref>
Other photos from the event show parts of the building that no longer exists.

A set of articles to work on is suggested and the cultural institution provides sources, mostly books, that the editors can use to source the Wikipedia articles.
We give away free (physical) badges after participation.
The events are free (gratis) but require registration.
The cultural institutions provide space and refreshments.
New Wiki Labs Kultur events have been schedule for 2025.
The Wiki Labs Kultur event in August 2024 on the National Gallery of Denmark coincided with ''SMK Fridays'', that is a special event at that gallery with art, talks, music and drinks. The editathon took place in the hallway, meaning that SMK Fridays participants that knew nothing of Wiki Labs Kultur could come and exerience an editathon and get information about Wikipedia.
Less succesful has been the online Wiki Labs Kultur meetings via Google Meet where it has been mostly established Wikipedians that join and and fairly few in numbers. This has led us to discontinue the online meetings.
To get an overview of the amount of work and Wikimedians associated with the event Wikimedia Denmark has utilized the Event Metrics tool at the Wmcloud.<ref>https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org specifically https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org/programs/783</ref>
This has been going on since 2022.
Our statistics may not be complete but for the data we recorded for 2024, we have data for seven individual events that shows we had between 8 to 17 participants editing each time.

[[File:Fra Københavns Børs rescued April 16th 2024.jpg|thumb|Carrying the large Krøyer painting away from the burning ''Børsen'' building]]
A historic landmark building in central Copenhagen, ''Børsen'', burned in April 2024.
A highly valuable large painting by P.S. Krøyer was saved from the burning building.
Back in May 2016, Wikipedians together with the Danish Chamber of Commerce, that occupies the building, had an event in ''Børsen'', "Wikidag på Børsen", where photos were taken of the interior, including some areas that were usually inaccessible for outsiders. Some of these were uploaded to Wikimedia Commons where there is a dedicated category for the event.<ref>https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikidag_p%C3%A5_B%C3%B8rsen</ref>
This included a photo of the Krøyer painting taken by seasoned Wikipedian and photographer Villy Fink Isaksen and it is now labeled as a quality image.<ref>https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fra_K%C3%B8benhavns_B%C3%B8rs.jpg</ref>
Isaksens photo was used on several newssites.<ref>For instance, https://www.weekendavisen.dk/samfund/spir and https://www.dw.com/de/d%C3%A4nemarks-notre-dame-moment-historische-b%C3%B6rse-in-flammen/a-68839358</ref>
Other photos from the event show parts of the building that no longer exists.

[[File:WikiPrideGap 2023 - Wikipedia rollup and mantelpiece.jpg|thumb|From WikiPrideGap 2023 at the residence of the Swedish ambassador.]]
In February 2023, the Swedish Embassy in Copenhagen and the Pride group organized a edit-a-thon with Wikimedia Denmark.<ref>https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiPrideGap_2023</ref>
The event called ''WikiPrideGap 2023'' coincided with the Copenhagen Winter Pride 2023 event and focused on LGBT+ issues.
The event took place in the stately residence of the Swedish ambassador.
Many suggestions for articles were put forward and some articles within the pride area were created.
Overall the event was successful and well-attended.
An editathon on Vestamager library was very meagerly attended by only two people from Wikimedia Denmark.
Events in the successful series [[Wiki Labs Kultur]] continued in 2023.
These are events that focuses on culture and often organized together with Copenhagen cultural institutions.
Wikimedia Denmark has begun to use the Eventmetrics tool at the WM Cloud.<ref>https://eventmetrics.wmcloud.org/</ref>
This tools allow us to get an overview of participants and work done during the on-site editathon.
For an editathon on The Workers Museum in Copenhagen (Arbejdermuseet) on November 2023 18 participants were recorded. These are often newcomers.
Online Wiki Labs Kultur events continued via Google Meet. They enable Wikipedians and people interested in culture to participate in events even though the are far from Copenhagen. However, these online events have been less successful in drawing in new Wikipedians.
== Other issues ==
In a letter dated 1 February 2023, the European Encyclopedia Network (ENN) had sent an open letter to the Executive Vice-President Margrethe Vestager where they lamented that "For years, Google has prioritised Wikipedia in search results" and pointed to the Wikimedia Enterprise agreement with Google.<ref>https://encyclopedianetwork.eu/sites/default/files/2023-02/Letter%20to%20the%20European%20Commission%201.02.2023.pdf</ref>
Wikimedia Europe's Dimi Dimitrov formulated a response to the open letter it was signed by Dimitrov and Chairman of the board, Finn Årup Nielsen.
Subsequently Dimitrov and Nielsen had a meeting with the EEN people to clarify issues.
The Chairman was interviewed for the radio program ''Foyeren'' that was transmitted on 19 May 2023.
