Dit is een update van de activiteiten van Wikimedia Hongarije in maart 2012.
Our newest reports, originally written in English, are now translatable to any language, and we would appreciate if you found them worthwhile for translation. Earlier reports not originally published in English will not be prioritised for translation as long as the Translate extension does not support translation from source languages other than English (see bug 35489).
Activiteiten
- Building on the success of our 2010 maintenance competition we organised a big spring clean up competition on Hungarian Wikipedia aimed at reducing the backlog in maintenance categories. In three weeks over 1700 maintenance issues were solved: over 500 articles were provided with sources, around 250 were given an infobox and at least 300 articles were expanded. The various tasks performed by the 38 competitors were assigned 1-5 points, and the editors with the most points in the end could choose from a number of Wikipedia-themed items and shopping vouchers as their prize, while all editors who participated will receive some small gift.
- On 10 March we held a community meetup in Budapest, with about 40 Wikipedians, including three people invited from the Slovene Wikipedia community. At the meetup the writers of the best Wikipedia articles of 2011 were acknowledged. The best articles, written or expanded in 2011, were nominated by the community and chosen by a vote. Wikimedia Hungary provided the diplomas and celebratory cake for the award ceremony.
- Vince, a community member has volunteered to systematically photograph Budapest, the capital of Hungary, and to write some of the missing articles. To make the event more fun, he has started organising photowalks in Budapest, where participants photograph all the notable buildings and public features of a given part of the city. The first tour was held on 25 March with the participation of 5 people, who took about a hundred pictures and later about a dozen articles were written or improved about the buildings the photos show. The next tour is scheduled for 15 April and everyone is welcome. Wikimedia Hungary has supported the organiser in covering his transportation costs and we would be happy to fund other community-led projects, as well.
- On 9 March Bence Damokos visited Bratislava to meet the Wikipedians behind the future Wikimedia Slovakia chapter. Wikimedia Slovakia held its first General Assembly with the three original members who were later joined by a few local and Austrian Wikipedians. At the meeting they discussed projects like Wiki Loves Monuments, and an outreach effort they initiated towards local schools and libraries, as well as the technicalities of running an NGO. Bence advised them that Wikimedia national organisations (or chapters) are usually approved when they have a membership of at least 15-20 people, but nevertheless the group could ask to be recognised as a User Group, and get general support from the Wikimedia Foundation.
- Gergő Tisza and Bence Damokos have participated in the Berlin Wikimedia Conference. Our annual State of the Chapter presentation is available here.
- We have signed an agreement with the Wikimedia Foundation that allows us to ask Hungarian visitors of the websites operated by the Foundation to allocate one percent of their income tax to Wikimedia Hungary. Subsequently, a landing page was set up to solicit these donations, and we plan to start a short banner campaign in May.
- A number of merchandise items have finally been produced, including Commons-themed yo-yos, Wikipedia themed textile shopping bags and stickers and buttons. These will be used as give-aways at community events and prizes in our smaller competitions.
- Er is een laptop gekocht voor onze werknemer.
- In maart heeft een lid zich aangesloten bij Wikimedia Hongarije.

The overspending in case of the debt repayment to Wikimedia Austria (to cover the costs of the 2011 Fundraising Summit) is due to the change in exchange rates and a rounding error in the original plan.
It is expected that our accounting fees will exceed the target by about 50% as we transition to an accountant that better suits our needs and from a yearly payment schedule to a monthly one, meaning that we will have to cover this year the accounting costs of both 2011 and 2012. Due to increased ticket prices and the number of international events, we project that travel spending both for community members and the board will exceed planned levels. Banking and printing costs are at expected levels, however, we have under-budgeted for postage fees.
Due to the cancellation of the Belgrade Management Congress, the 300 000 HUF allocated to support it will not be spent; however we are still committed to support the Central and Eastern European Wikimedia meetup to be held in Belgrade.

Other revenue includes the conversion of food vouchers and the reimbursement of a plane ticket issued by the bankrupt Malév airline. Planned income for 2012 includes categories of revenue (e.g. 1% income tax allocation) that will only be realized later in the year and is therefore not shown in the table. Our full budget plan is available here.
