PRESENTATION

Coordination, collaboration, and development

Wikimedia Small Projects (WikiSP or WMSP) is a user group that gathers Wikimedians of distinct projects and their communities with the aim to promote them, improve their development and diffusion, collaborate between this group and coordinate actions in association with Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, Wikidata as well as collaborations with other chapters, thematic organisations, and user groups to execute such purposes. The projects in which we develop our activity are described below. The language in which we mainly work is in Spanish, due to the fact that the vast majority of our members are Spanish-speaking, without ceasing to give reactive support to the other linguistic communities.
