The Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines or simply Hablon User Group (HUG) is a community of Filipino Wikimedians dedicated to promote free knowledge by improving Wikimedia projects through various activities such as, but not limited to, fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons. It is based in Manila and Tacloban City in the Philippines.
A user group is defined as a group of individuals who have the same interests and use a particular product or service, thus, we are a group of individuals who promote free knowledge through Wikipedia and its sister projects.
Hablon is a Bisaya word which means either "weaver" or "something woven".[1][2][3] Bisaya is the second among the languages in the Philippines that most Filipinos speak.[4] Filipinos, especially indigenous Filipinos, are weavers. [5] As Filipino weavers use fibers and threads to illustrate the culture of the Philippines in their textiles, HUG strives to interlace small bits of information to form knowledge and to make these knowledge accessible to everyone through Wikimedia projects.[6]
Background
The three Wikimedians who spearhead Hablon User Group (HUG) are members of the Wikimedia Philippines (WMPH) when it was still recognized as a Wikimedia Chapter in the Philippines. As members, while the two of them have been part of the Open Web Day project of the Wikimedia Philippines and the Mozilla Philippines and the other one has been coordinating fora and edit-a-thons under an independent Wikimedia community recognized by the Wikimedia Philippines which is the Sinirangan Bisaya Wikimedia Community (SBWC), they collaborated on most of activities of SBWC particularly the 1st and 2nd Waray Wikipedia Edit-a-thons.[7]
Despite the derecognition of WMPH in 2017, the three Wikimedians continue to participate and conduct fora, learning sessions and edit-a-thons either with SBWC and or with other similar organizations.
Who we are
To be more effective in promoting free knowledge by reaching out to other organizations and institutions to be partners, the three Wikimedians decided to form the Hablon User Group of Wikimedians in the Philippines or simply the Hablon User Group.
The Hablon User Group is not an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation but is a community of volunteers for the Wikimedia movement.
We are based in Manila and Tacloban in the Philippines.
Objectives
The purpose of Hablon User Group is to promote free knowledge by improving Wikimedia projects through activities and projects in partnership with like-minded individuals, organizations, institutions, the Wikimedia Foundation and other Wikimedia communities.
