Mission

Wikimedia DC continued to hold collaborative editing events (edit-a-thons) and educational events aimed at improving information literacy and awareness of open knowledge movements, which are our main institutional partnership program activity. Most of these are public events organized by our staff, and we present Wikipedia training. This fiscal year, Wikimedia DC ran or supported dozens events in partnership with over 20 institutional partners and one company seeking to create a rewarding volunteer experience. These events included a broad spectrum of cultural, academic, and government institutions, and non-governmental organizations. The partners are listed on our web site: https://wikimediadc.org/wiki/Plans_and_reports

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

- Exemption revoked 15 February 2021, reinstated 15 February 2021.
Publication 78
Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
