Wikimedia RU (Russian: Викимедиа РУ), also known as Wikimedia Russia was a non-profit Wikimedia chapter created to support the creation and maintenance of articles in the Russian-language Wikipedia.
In 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014 the organization was awarded the Runet award.[1]
As of 2022, the director of Wikimedia Russia was Vladimir Medeyko.[2]
Following increasing attacks on its members by the Russian government under Vladimir Putin, Wikimedia Russia was shut down in 2023.[3]
Bloomberg has speculated that this may be a move toward replacing the Russian Wikipedia in Russia with Ruwiki, a Wikipedia fork seen as being more sympathetic to the Russian government's propaganda aims.[3]
On March 22, 2024, Wikimedia RU was declared a foreign agent.[4]
