Re: An overview of Wikimedia Ukraine's activities in 2025

Hi all,

Just a heads-up that we've published a detailed report on Wikimedia
Ukraine's work in 2025: https://ua.wikimedia.org/?curid=10517

The full report is available in Ukrainian, but we also have a Diff post in
English with key highlights that I shared above:

Thanks again to everyone who joined! And look out for Ukraine's Cultural
Diplomacy Month starting very soon :)
