From Wikimedia Hong Kong, the Local Wikimedia Chapter in Hong Kong

香港維基媒體協會(WMHK)是維基媒體基金會在香港特別行政區境內的地方分會。成立本地維基人組織的倡議，最早出現在香港維基人籌辦2006中文維基年會期間。年會過後，有助籌辦年會的大部分維基人義工，組成協會的籌備委員會。香港維基媒體協會終在2007年7月14日成立。同年9月18日根據《公司條例》(香港法例第32章)註冊成為無股本的擔保有限公司。2008年3月1日，維基媒體基金會通過相關決議，正式承認香港維基媒體協會為旗下地方分會。

Wikimedia Hong Kong (WMHK) is the local chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The idea of founding such a chapter originated with local wikimedians as volunteers for Chinese Wikimedia Conference 2006. After the conference, most of volunteers formed a preliminary committee for the chapter. It eventually was founded on 14 July 2007, and was officially registered as a Company Limited by guarantee and not having a share capital, under Chapter 32 Company Ordinance of Hong Kong, on 18 September 2007. It was recognized by the Foundation on 1 March 2008.
