January in Wikimedia Serbia
Edit-a-thon and Workshop Dedicated to the Independent Art Scene
Wikimedia Serbia organized an edit-a-thon and workshop in Novi Sad dedicated to the independent art scene, in collaboration with What Could Should Curating Do. The workshop aimed to increase the visibility and improve content related to contemporary art on the Serbian Wikipedia. The first workshop was held on January 24 at the premises of the Association of Collective Artistic Practice and brought together participants who worked on expanding articles and developing high-quality free content. This initiative contributes to promoting the local art community and strengthening participants’ digital literacy.
Launch of the #1Lib1Ref Editing Campaign
Wikimedia Serbia officially launched the #1Lib1Ref (One Librarian, One Reference) reference-editing campaign, which runs from January 15 to February 5, 2026. This global initiative invites librarians and all interested contributors to improve Wikipedia by adding high-quality sources and citations, thereby enhancing the encyclopedia’s verifiability and reliability. The campaign is carried out worldwide as part of the celebration of the anniversary of the English Wikipedia, with the support of numerous Wikimedia communities. On the Serbian Wikipedia, the campaign is organized in cooperation with the University Library “Svetozar Marković” and the Wikimedia Community of the Republic of Srpska.
Engagement in the Content Partnerships Hub Initiative
Wikimedia Serbia has actively positioned itself within the global Content Partnerships Hub initiative, an important program that brings together Wikimedia organizations and volunteers worldwide who are interested in collaborating with various partners to freely share knowledge. The Hub seeks to strengthen cooperation with institutions such as museums, libraries, archives, scientific institutions, and international organizations, in order to make their content available on Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects.
