Fifth Anniversary Celebration
The Deoband Community Wikimedia was established on July 31, 2021, to support the representation of knowledge related to global Muslim academia, history, culture, and heritage on Wikimedia projects. Over the years, we have initiated projects such as DCW Conversation Hour and Heritage Lens, and helped establish Wiki Clubs, including Wiki Club AMU, to achieve our goals.
We are celebrating our fifth anniversary on 1 August 2026. Kindly keep an eye on this page for more updates.
