 A lot can happen in a wiki minute, like the 60 seconds of everything that happens on wikimedia projects. Or even the time it takes to answer, what does the wikimedia foundation do? You might know about Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia anyone can edit, but you may not know that Wikipedia as well as 12 other open source projects dedicated to free knowledge are hosted and operated by a non-profit, the wikimedia foundation. The wikimedia foundation is made up of people from around the world who believe knowledge is a human right. That's why they work to make sure free, verifiable knowledge is accessible to everyone. Their work includes improving and maintaining world-class technology to support wikimedia's vast open source infrastructure, providing support and funding to organizations and people who make free knowledge possible. They also provide legal and advocacy efforts to protect people's right to free knowledge around the world. And that's what the wikimedia foundation does in only a minute.
