Macedonian Wikiexpeditions

Wikiexpeditions (Macedonian: Викиекспедиции) is a project of a team of experienced Macedonian Wikipedians aiming to visit the various regions in Macedonia. Between 2015 and 2023, the project was conducted under activities of Shared Knowledge, and from 2024 it is part of the annual activities of the newly formed Wikimedia MKD.

The project aims to improve existing and create new articles about villages, geographical areas/regions, churches, monasteries, buildings, schools and etc. throughout the territory of Macedonia.

The project began in the spring 2015 and so far covered 46 regions in Macedonia, uploaded more than 18.500 images and written more than 3.000 articles.
