Wikimedia Community Malta was accepted as a participating member of the Wikimedia Central and Eastern Europe partnership on Friday 29 March 2019 during a thematic group meetup at the Wikimedia Deutshland office in Berlin, which was the 2019 Wikimedia Summit.
Following a proposal for participation by WCM founding member Toni Sant, CEE members expressed no reservations towards this and it was agreed that Malta’s participation would be discussed on the Meta Wiki towards formal engagement in 2020, when Malta took on the first CEE Spring contest in Maltese. CEE Spring (Rebbiegħa CEE) is an annual article writing contest, which takes place during the entire season of spring, starting on the 21st of March.
