Thank you for listening to WIKIMOVE

As we wrap up the WIKIMOVE podcast, we want to take a moment to thank all our listeners for helping make it such a meaningful experience. Over nearly two years and two exciting seasons, we had the privilege of inviting inspiring voices from across the Wikimedia Movement and to learn about exciting and innovative initiatives. You can check out our website to listen to the episodes you may have missed.

At this time, we have decided not to continue with new WIKIMOVE episodes and instead to explore other ways to engage with our Movement Strategy. As a final wrap-up, we are pleased to share an evaluation of WIKIMOVE’s reach and reception with you. Feel free to reach out and stay in touch. Eva Martin (WMDE) (talk) 11:32, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
