Wikimedian in Residence, 2025, in Elbasan Albania
Wikimedian in Residence, 2025, in Elbasan Albania
The three-month Wikimedian in Residence project at the Qemal Baholli Public Library in Elbasan has officially come to an end. From September to November 2025, our Wikimedian in Residence, Beneta Dhima, focused on expanding and improving articles related to Albanian arts, history, movies, and artists.
Throughout the project, Beneta created 8 new Wikipedia articles, improved 54 existing ones, uploaded 38 media files to Wikimedia Commons, and completed a total of 268 edits on Wikidata. This collaboration has increased the visibility of the Albanian cultural heritage on the Wikimedia platforms and strengthened the library’s ability to engage with open knowledge initiatives.
Her hard work highlights the ongoing value of GLAM partnerships in Albania and encourages further work in making cultural content accessible to the public.
