The four day meeting saw about sixteen participants visiting nearby nature parks, reserves and towns and also playing Wikipedia quizzes and video clips, as well as listening to lectures on Wikipedia and the chapters.\n\nThe camp was the first multi-day Wikimedia event to take place in Hungary, supplementing a long tradition of at least quarterly Wikipedia [[:w:hu:Wikip\u00e9dia:Magyar_wikip\u00e9distatal\u00e1lkoz\u00f3k|meetups]] in different parts of the country. \n\nGiven the positive feedback, if there is interest from the community to organize a WikiCamp 2011, we plan to support it as well.\n\n===Conference organization===\nOn 28 August there was a meeting about the ongoing organization of a Wikipedia conference to be held on the 15th of January 2011 aimed at the educational sector.\n\n==Book contest==\nWe started a [[w:hu:Wikip\u00e9dia:Wikim\u00e9dia_Magyarorsz\u00e1g/K\u00f6nyvk\u00e9sz\u00edt\u0151_vet\u00e9lked\u0151|contest]] on the Hungarian Wikipedia with the aim to create community books from the topic of the encyclopedia. We hope that the outcome can serve as a good step to identify featureable topic categories. The winners will get their entries in the form of a PediaPress book and Wikimedia Hungary will use the best books in its regular activities in promoting and showcasing Wikipedia.\n\nTo help the contest we created a tutorial [[:File:K\u00f6nyvk\u00e9sz\u00edt\u0151_haszn\u00e1lata.theora.ogv|video]] about the book creation tool, and the corresponding [[w:hu:Wikip\u00e9dia:K\u00f6nyvek|help page]] has also been updated.\n\n==Grants==\n===Council of Hungarian Internet Providers===\nThe Hungarian Council of Hungarian Internet Providers has provided Wikimedia Hungary with a HUF 4.7 million ($ 21 300) grant to set up and maintain a server. We are in the process of obtaining quotes for this server that would serve as a mini toolserver (running resource intensive analytics programs, such as WikiTrust; test environments for MediaWiki extensions; bots and user scripts; and generally being available to the local user and research community and serving the chapter\u2019s general needs for a server.)\n\n===Wikimedia Foundation grants===\nThe five grant submissions of Wikimedia Hungary for the fiscal year 2010-2011 have all been approved and the grant has now been transferred into our accounts. \n\nOur aim is to buy promotional supplies, projecting equipment, organize a conference on the 10th anniversary of Wikipedia, run a number of photo contests, and to produce a number of tutorial videos for Wikipedia. You can read about the individual grants in detail on [[:m:Grants:Index|Meta-Wiki]].\n\nThe total value of the grants is $6250 \u2013 we appreciate the support of the Wikimedia Foundation.\n\n===National Civil Fund===\nOur grant application to the National Civil Fund to help provide scholarships for Wikimania has succeeded and we have won HUF 248 000 ($1100) out of the requested HUF 330 000. \nUnfortunately, the news came after the event and we were unable to utilize it to its potential. We estimate that the total amount we can spend from this grant (and reimburse to the participants of Wikimania) will be about HUF 70 000. \n\nOn a brighter note, we received HUF 200 000 ($900) from the National Civil Fund to cover some of our administrative and operating expenses.\n\n==Media==\nOur WikiCamp event was [http://www.kanizsatv.hu/index.php?mod=hr&hr_id=1602 featured in Kanizsa TV], the local TV of Nagykanizsa and our president gave an interview emphasizing the importance of face-to-face meetings. The camp was also [http://blog.wikimedia.org/blog/2010/08/27/volunteers-from-serbia-and-wikimedia-hungary-go-wikicamping/ featured in the Wikimedia Foundation blog].\n===Social Media===\nYou can now find us on [http://twitter.com/WikimediaHU Twitter] (and occasionally on [http://identi.ca/wikimediahu Identi.ca]) at @WikimediaHU, as well as [http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Wikimedia-Magyarorszag/143944295635566 Facebook]. We also maintain the [http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Magyar-Wikipedia/175106302938 Facebook page for the Hungarian Wikipedia] and have a [http://huwiki.blogspot.com/?utm_source=metareport blog].\n\n==GLAM-relations==\nWe have established contact with a group of librarians who want to start an initiative to systematically improve Wikipedia content on the topics they find important. A tentative meeting has been scheduled with them for the end of September."

During the reporting period we were dealing with the official business of the incorporation. This report focuses on our activities during this time, and more. \n\n== Activities ==\n=== August 2008 ===\nThe plans and discussions about a Hungarian chapter were brewing for over a year by August (c.f. our short summary on the subject on [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikim%C3%A9dia_Magyarorsz%C3%A1g meta:Wikim\u00e9dia Magyarorsz\u00e1g]). At a meeting held on 1 August we finally decided on establishing the chapter. This is what happened after the meeting in August:\n* We contacted the Chapters Committee with our plans, and than adapted those to the requirement of the WMF.\n* Opened a temporary, closed wiki for discussions about founding the chapter (http://sunfire.mokk.bme.hu/wikimedia).\n* We gathered information regarding WMF policies and guidelines, the local legal environment, our fiscal needs and capabilities.\n* Contacted as many chapters as we could to have a clearer idea of what to expect, and asked for advice. We received valuable input from all the chapters we contacted, and also a welcoming attitude in forming a new organisation in the family of chapters.\n* During this month we discussed the operation, activities and goals of the planned chapter, and drafted our bylaws.\n* Through the help of our president we secured the domains ''wiki.media.hu'' and ''wikim\u00e9dia.hu'' (unfortunately we found that ''wikimedia.hu'' is \u201csquatted\u201d).\n* We prepared the introduction of the Flagged Revisions extension on the Hungarian Wikipedia. After a period of testing on a copy of Wikipedia, the community has approved and asked for the introduction of this extension on 1 September. A Bugzilla request (https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15568) has been filed to this effect, now we are waiting for the developers to implement the decision.\n\n=== September 2008 ===\n* On 3 September we had a meeting and decided on a schedule of the founding. The local tax laws put pressure on us to incorporate before the end of the year, which at the time didn\u2019t seem entirely possible.\n* Meanwhile, the admins of the Hungarian Wikipedia have started removing images that cannot be legally used according to Hungarian copyright law. Hungarian law doesn\u2019t recognise the concept of fair use and there are only limited cases when a copyrighted work can be used without permission. Finding proper legal expertise over the years to advise on crucial issues has been extremely difficult, though we can acknowledge the help of the Hungarian Creative Commons community. Many questions remain open that in the future we hope will be answered by legal counsel made available through the facilities of WM Hungary.\n* Concurrently we applied and received [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/OTRS OTRS] access, established a Hungarian information and permissions queue, and adopted a way of handling permissions similar to the one used on Commons.\n* We have redoubled our involvement in the translation effort, translating some of the Foundation web pages that would be useful for our chapter\u2019s website as well. Note, that MediaWiki localisation of the Wikipedia UI has been constantly close to 100% for a longer period of time.\n* We introduced ourselves on Meta-Wiki ([http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikim%C3%A9dia_Magyarorsz%C3%A1g meta:Wikim\u00e9dia Magyarorsz\u00e1g] and [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_chapters meta:Wikimedia Chapters]), and started a community wide discussion in the Hungarian projects about the chapter.\n* Concurrently, in the first half of the month we have sent the draft of the bylaws to the Chapters Committee.\n* The end of September has been significant in the life of our chapter, we organised the founding meeting on 27 September in Budapest. At the meeting 20 founding members showed up from different parts of Hungary and one member even travelled from Transylvania, Romania just to be a member. Apart from the founding members there were present some spectators that couldn\u2019t join (for being too young, we hope that we can clarify the legal situation and offer some form of involvement for the members of the younger generations as well).\n* After a successful founding meeting the elected board and the certifiers of the minutes handed in the necessary paperwork at the Metropolitan Court in Budapest (housed in a very impressive, old building, still bearing signs of once being a court in the Austria-Hungary of the 19<sup>th</sup> century).\n\n=== October 2008 ===\n* The Court has ordered some smaller changes in the bylaws and additional papers, and to affect them a repeated founding meeting had to be held with the same members present as before.\n* We organised this new meeting, gathered the necessary documents and changed our bylaws. The repeated meeting was held on 19 October where we accepted the necessary changes. The request for incorporation with the new bylaws and the additionally requested documents was handed in at the Metropolitan Court the next day.\n* During October we started collecting ideas about our future homepage and a possible strategy regarding buying the necessary domains for the different projects that have a Hungarian name (all except Commons, at this time).\n\n== Chapter administration ==\n* We have voted on our Board at both founding meetings we have held, with the same results. The composition of the Board is as follows, their term starting at the moment of legal registration (incorporation):\n** [[huwiki:User:Grin|P\u00e9ter Gervai]], President;\n** [[huwiki:User:Samat|Tam\u00e1s M\u00e9sz\u00f6ly]], Executive Vice-president;\n** D\u00e1niel Zr\u00ednyi, Financial Vice-president;\n** [[huwiki:User:Bdamokos|Bence Damokos]], Board member (for international relations);\n** [[huwiki:User:Cassandro|G\u00e1bor Han\u00e1k]], Board member.\n\n== Lobbying/Political ==\n* Some of our members were present at the founding of the Hungarian Creative Commons Association (Creative Commons Magyarorsz\u00e1g Egyes\u00fclet).\n* We conducted successful negotiations with the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and the Media Education and Research Center thereof, they have agreed [possibly outside the current reporting period] to provide us with an official seat at the University.\n* Some of our members were invited to a meeting in the Hungarian Department of Health with the representatives of ESKI (Health Strategic Research Institute) about the Hungarian version of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICD ICD] classification (they were concerned about the copyrights and the importance of providing accurate information about this fixed system on a freely editable interface that is Wikipedia).\n\n== Media and news ==\n* After our founding meeting we were mentioned in national and regional newspapers, and their online editions:\n** [http://www.origo.hu/techbazis/20080929-egyesuletet-alapitanak-a-magyar-wikipedia-es-a-creative-commons-aktivistai.html an online newspaper article about us and the Creative Commons community forming an association];\n** [http://www.bmhirlap.hu/index.php?apps=cikk&d=2008-09-30&r=236&c=699850 regional newspaper, a short mention in one of their columns];\n** [http://nol.hu/archivum/archiv-508639 article about us founding an association in one of the biggest dailies in Hungary];\n** [http://hu.wikinews.org/wiki/M\u00e9g_id\u00e9n_l\u00e9trej\u00f6het_a_Wikim\u00e9dia_Magyarorsz\u00e1g_Egyes\u00fclet Hungarian Wikinews article about our founding].\n\n== News from the Hungarian Wikimedia projects ==\n* The Hungarian Wikipedia has overtaken the Esperanto edition, regarding number of articles, becoming the 21<sup>st</sup> biggest edition (8 August).\n* The number of edits on Wikipedia has reached 4 million in total (14 August).\n* The Hungarian Wikipedia reached an article milestone of 105,000 articles (11 September).\n\n== Coming up ==\nThis concludes our report on activities in the period of August\u2013October, you can find out more on our website and Meta pages:  http://wiki.media.hu and [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikim%C3%A9dia_Magyarorsz%C3%A1g meta:Wikim\u00e9dia Magyarorsz\u00e1g] (currently both point to the same page, this will change however).\nComing up in the next issue of our report and in the next chapter of our chapter:\n* The race between the Board and the Court results in a tie: they approve us on the same date;\n* Starting up an open wiki for our chapter, moving the members only wiki to its final hosting place;\n* Further media appearances."
