    I've just been elected President of the Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand Society Inc (incorporation pending). The reward for a job well done is another big job. Super happy with the my fellow new committee members. I know we'll do great things for the benefit of open knowledge.

    We're excited that our ongoing partnership with Know My Name and the forms part of its new Gender Equity Action Plan launched today on to grow the representation of women and non-binary artists. See the plan here:
