All these events are described in the Wikipedia article "[[w:en:History of Wikipedia|History of Wikipedia]]". Prior to 19-year celebration, Russian Wikipedians referred to Russian version of it, entitled «[[w:История Википедии|История Википедии]]», and found there were some mistaken and outdated information. Following that, one of Petersburg wikimedians (not a member of the mentioned user-groups though) has proposed this article and the article about Nupedia to be a "Work of the Week" for the week #4 of 2020 (20–26 January). "Work of the Week" is a Russian Wikipedia analogue of English Wikipedia's "[[w:en:Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement|Today's articles for improvement]]" — an inner project dedicated to joint improvement of selected topics.
Such means are used for coordination that helps in the improvement and development of Wikipedia as well as its "[[m:Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects|sister projects]]". Constant development of Wikipedia and sister projects is an important social and educational task of global scale. The other means include "[[w:en:Edit-a-thon|edit-a-thons]]" — collective efforts for editing articles on specified topic on within specified terms. Arrangement of such events is one of the functions of Wikimedia user-groups (UG's).
As was reported earlier, 2 such user-groups were created in Saint Petersburg this summer. This was the main year 2019 outcome for their participants. Preparatory work was made, including interaction with Wikimedia Foundation, that finally registered two UG's: "[[m:North-West_Russia_Wiki-Historians_User_Group/en|North-West Russia Wiki-Historians User Group (NWR-Hist)]]" and "[[m:Wikimedians of Saint Petersburg User Group/en|Wikimedians of Saint Petersburg User Group (RU-SPB)]]". These two groups overlap, but are not identical. The inspirer and ideologist for the 1st one is thought to be [[user:Красный]], for the 2nd — [[d:Q46450253|Paul Kaganer]]. Paul was not present at the meeting, sending remote greetings, so those who gathered concentrated primarily on the ''NWR-Hist'' affairs. [[d:Q50233421|Vladimir Medeyko]], participant of both groups, anyway, was present — in the passed year, he was re-elected the head of [[wmru:en:|Wikimedia RU]], the Russian [[m:Wikimedia chapter|Wikimedia chapter]].
The meeting on 12 January was not easy to organize. For the first time, it was planned on December 21, 2019, but user:Красный was unexpectedly accidentally injured and got into hospital. Remaining users held meeting without him and without serious results, wishing him good health. He went well, and the next meeting produced successful annual report by January, 22. Among the remarkable results:
* Главным событием года безусловно стало признание и регистрация Фондом Викимедиа [[Фонд Викимедиа признал и оформил группу российских краеведов|первой]] и [[Фонд Викимедиа зарегистрировал ячейку в Санкт-Петербурге|второй]] юзер-групп региона. Этому предшествовали подготовительные мероприятия и официальная переписка. В число подготовительных мероприятий входила и обычная вики-деятельность, о которой создавались отчёты и их версии на английском языке для представления Фонду.
