Meraikan ulang tahun ke-10 pembentukan komuniti Wikimedia di Malaysia 🎉

22 Mei 2016–22 Mei 2026 | Buat julung-julung kalinya, sebuah pertemuan bagi penggiat Wikimedia di Malaysia telah diadakan di Mall of Medini, Medini Iskandar dekat Johor Bahru, Johor.

Pertemuan ini kemudiannya membawa kepada pembentukan kumpulan pengguna Wikimedia di Malaysia yang disahkan oleh Yayasan Wikimedia pada tahun berikutnya.

Wikimedia Community User Group Malaysia is proud to share the collective impact of our recent workshops held in conjunction with Ukraine’s Cultural Diplomacy Month 2026. This year, our efforts spanned across both higher education and secondary school levels, reinforcing our commitment to bridging cultural gaps through open knowledge.
Bridging Cultures in Cyberjaya
On 23 April 2026, we returned to City University Malaysia, Cyberjaya, for our fourth consecutive year of collaboration. Our facilitators guided a diverse group of international students in translating 44 articles about Ukrainian heritage, cities, and prominent figures into seven languages, including Malay, Mandarin, Arabic, French, Bulgarian, and Spanish.
Local Voices from Sandakan
The initiative also reached East Malaysia, where students from SMK Sandakan took part in a dedicated edit-a-thon. These young editors focused on making Ukrainian culture accessible to local audiences by creating and translating 22 articles into Malay and other local languages.
A Collaborative Success
The Embassy of Ukraine in Malaysia has expressed its sincere appreciation to our coordinator, Mr. Mohd Taufik Rosman, for his leadership in mobilizing the SMK Sandakan students. As a gesture of gratitude, participants were treated to #Roshen products, celebrating a successful exchange of knowledge and culture.
We are honored to see these 66 new articles added to the global encyclopedia and look forward to continuing this meaningful partnership next year.

​Pada 31 Mac lalu, kami telah mengadakan kegiatan marasunting sempena sambutan Bulan Wanita Antarabangsa bersama-sama Kedutaan Besar Sweden di Malaysia, dan ini adalah rumusan dapatan sepanjang kegiatan berlangsung.

Seramai 20 pengguna baharu yang terdiri daripada pelajar Universiti Monash Malaysia, dan sebanyak 211 petikan kata daripada 20 tokoh wanita telah dimasukkan ke dalam Wikipetik Bahasa Melayu

Kami berharap agar kegiatan ini dalam meluaskan lagi capaian ilmu dalam bahasa-bahasa dunia di masa akan datang!

Terima kasih buat semua Wikipediawan yang menjayakan kegiatan ini!

Thank you to all Wikipedians who made this activity a success!

Between February 15 and 28, we conducted a content exchange project centered on Malaysia and Palestine. We are pleased to report that this initiative resulted in the creation of 31 articles in the Malay Wikipedia, 30 in the Arabic Wikipedia, and 4 in the Javanese Wikipedia. We look forward to future collaborations that continue to diversify global knowledge across all languages. Our sincere thanks to every Wikipedian who contributed to this success.

​Sempena Bulan Asia Wikipedia tahun lalu, kami telah menganjurkan sebuah bengkel Wikimedia kepada mahasiswa Universiti Malaya (UM) pada 19 Disember 2025.

Dalam bengkel tersebut, kami mendedahkan cara menyunting di laman ensiklopedia bebas, Wikipedia dan memasukkan perkataan ke kamus bebas dalam talian, Wikikamus (Wiktionary).

Bengkel turut dijalankan secara serentak bersama rakan-rakan Wikimedia di Jepun, sempena jalinan Persahabatan Wikimedia Jepun-Malaysia.

Pada acara ini, Dr. Woo Wai Sheng dari Jabatan Bahasa-Bahasa Asia dan Eropah, Fakulti Bahasa dan Linguistik UM juga berkesempatan menyampaikan ucapan alu-aluan.

Acara ini turut mendapat sokongan Kedutaan Besar Jepun di Malaysia dan Kedutaan Besar Malaysia di Jepun ini, dan telah berjaya menghasilkan 10 rencana baharu di Wikipedia dan memasukkan 391 perkataan bahasa Jepun ke Wikikamus.

Wikimedia Malaysia amat berbesar hati dengan kerjasama ini. Semoga dapat bersama-sama menyumbang pengetahuan untuk semua.

​As of early 2026, Wikipedia has evolved from a "digital dream" into the backbone of the internet, now serving as a primary data source for AI and search engines. In Malaysia, the platform has seen massive growth in local language content, high readership, and international award-winning projects for indigenous language preservation.

​Pada Oktober 2025, SMK Bukit Assek di Sibu menjadi tuan rumah bagi bengkel memperkasa Bahasa Iban di Wikipedia dan Wikikamus. Program ini bertujuan melatih guru dan pelajar cara menulis serta menyunting kandungan dalam bahasa ibunda mereka agar ia kekal relevan dalam dunia digital.

​Almost a year after winning the International Green Gown Awards for our indigenous language preservation project, Wikimedia Community User Group Malaysia was invited to present on indigenous lifeways and biodiversity at Expo 2025 in Osaka, Japan on 30th August 2025.
