28. People
Wikimedia considers any person who supports our
mission or edits on our projects to be a volunteer.
On our projects we consider an active editor to be
anyone who has edited at least five times in a month.
In December 2009 over 95,849 people edited a
Wikimedia project at least five times. 11,764 of those
made 100+ edits in the same month
Since the creation of Wikipedia nearly 1,000,000,000
individual edits have been made to Wikimedia projects.

Greetings and thanks
Pleasure and honor to be visiting Tokyo this week, especially to talk about something I care a great deal about.
This is perhaps only the second time that a representative from the Foundation has been able to attend, and it’s a great opportunity to share our work and to hear what Wikimedians and enthusiasts of our projects are doing in Japan.
A great opportunity to start a dialog and for the Foundation to gain some perspective.
This is the reason I’m here today. This is probably the reason you are here today as well.
This is an emblem of a brand, but it means much more than a brand.
This represents an endless bounty of knowledge. It represents trust, or for others no trust.
It is about a special space to protect.
This symbol is about collaboration, neutrality, tough and complex topics, as well as simple topics.
The puzzle globe is not done, it’s imperfect, but it’s also a human creation – it’s something that we’ve built.
This is Wikipedia – it’s more than a website, but I’m excited to know that a symbol like this is so powerful.
Wikipedia started with Jimmy Wales.
He made this declaration at some point in his life – wanting to carry out the idea of bringing all knowledge to all people in all relevant languages.
Jimmy was thinking about Wikipedia before the technology even existed. He was thinking about his idea in his time as a day-trader in Chicago.
He was an early internet adopter – active on mailing lists, and drifted towards the very early ideas of the internet.
He pondered whether these early technologies could lead to something like an on-line encyclopedia.
A truly global project:
• 9 languages at 500k+ • 27 languages at 100k+ • 90 languages at 10k+ • 177 languages at 1k+
Grew from an idea to this scope and size.
This is data from the internet measurement company comScore. Comscore uses an audience sampling system to average out traffic levels for web properties.
In fact our own server data reports significantly higher traffic levels, in excess of 100K requests on our servers per second, but this system for measurement is different.
Wikimedia Foundation sites includes all of our projects in all of its languages.
We’d like to recognize comScore for generously providing this data to us.
This chart also uses comScore data, and although it only observes english news sites, it does provide some specific context about the difference between how similar news and information sites perform on a global scale.
Wikipedia is the blue line, with almost exponential growth in traffic and almost no other sites in the same competitive area.
This slide shows what kinds of article categories people are looking at across language wikipedias. In Japan there is a predmoniance of viewing pop culture information – more than any other site. This is preliminary data, but it is a powerful way to present the incredible differences in how cultures consume information from Wikipedia.
Note that this is –not- a reflection of the content in each wikipedia, rather what is being viewed.
The Foundation was founded in St. Petersburg Florida, which is where our data center remains, but we moved to San Francisco to take advantage of the intellectual capital and resources in the bay area.
The Wikimedia Foundation’s mission is not specifically built around supporting Wikipedia. The Foundation was created to build and grow all of its projects, including Wikipedia, with the ultimate mission to spread free knowledge globally.
The open-ness of this mission means that we can leverage other opportunities, including off-line systems, to spread the works of the Foundation more broadly.
In 2008 the Foundation refined its focused work areas to include reach, participation, and quality. Reach refers to bringing the knowledge to more people. Participation refers to involving more people – particularly underrepresented or specially skilled people into the projects. Quality refers the work the Foundation is doing to improve the Wikipedia software, and to the overall support provided to our volunteer community to support high quality content.
We’re a group that focusses intensely on the people behind our projects – our volunteers. There would be no projects without them. The volunteers were there before there was a Foundation.
This visual represents how the small number of our staff compares to the vast number of volunteers (over 100K)

This is our office – one floor in downtown San Francisco. There is no campus, no cafeteria, no luxurious space. We have about 10,000 square feet that holds the majority of our staff.
Wikimedia chapters are approved organizations that carry out the Foundation’s work and support our mission independently in specific countries.
You can see that northern Europe is slightly over-represented, and North America, the middle east, asia, and Africa are virtually unrepresented. Chapter growth is complicated by the need to navigate local legislation and to mobilize Wikipedians in some countries where geography or politics prevent easy connection.

This slide shows that although we are seeing universal increase in number of new articles and growth of users looking at articles, we are seeing that the number of contributors making 5 or more edits a month is gradually decreasing. Japan, for example, is experiencing a decline.
This isn’t a dire situation, but it presents something very important to study and consider for the Foundation.
This slide is part of our recent exploration of our status and data as it relates to our strategy project.
On the left is a slide that demonstrates how much more significant our traffic levels are for non-english Wikipedias. Our major growth is happening in Japanese and european languages, almost to the point that almost ¾ of our traffic is not related to the United States.
On the right you see the growth in the creation of new articles. English is the highest and still the most steep, but dozens of other language Wikipedias are growing at similar speeds.
