Our Mission

The MediaWiki Stakeholders' Group (MWStake) is a MediaWiki user group of:

  • MediaWiki Developers
  • System Administrators
  • Users
  • Consultants
  • Hosting Providers

We cooperate towards our mission in order to improve the software and advocate the needs of MediaWiki users outside the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF), its projects and the traditional Wikimedia movement.

Thus to ensure MediaWiki becomes and stays the best fit open source wiki for knowledge sharing and documentation.


Slide 3

Ecosystem and Structure

MediaWiki Stakeholders' Group is a recognized Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) affiliation. The WMF was established as a nonprofit in 2003 to give Wikipedia ‘the largest source of human knowledge ever created’ a permanent home. Some Wikipedia numbers (2018)[1]:

  • Wikipedia remains the only top 10 website that's a non-profit
  • Wikipedia surpassed 50 million articles
  • Volunteers added 2.5 million new articles
  • 250,000+ volunteers contributed to Wikipedia each month
  • As an ecosystem we maintain Wikipedia with 350+ non-profit staff worldwide
  • People visited Wikipedia 15 billion times each month
  • AI bots scanned Wikipedia edits 86 million times per month to catch and correct vandalism

The MediaWiki Stakeholders’ Group Corporation was founded in 2019 to complement WMF. MWStake's current members are high profile members of the MediaWiki community. Many Members use or maintain MediaWiki in a professional environment, in corporations, highly visible sites or as advisors.
