Purpose-driven

We protect women’s rights, our linguistic rights, and the right to free knowledge.

Holistic Well-being

We nurture and support a community of volunteer leaders by fostering connections and promoting well-being among its members.

Collaborative Community

We share a commitment to open knowledge and work together as a community.

Whether you are a seasoned Wikisource editor or a first-time contributor, your efforts will help build a more comprehensive digital library of Philippine knowledge. The PhilWiki Community proudly invites everyone to participate in Wikisource Loves Filipiniana Proofreading Challenge 2026, a nationwide campaign dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich literary and historical heritage of the Philippines.

The Wikimedia Commons hosts millions of photo images but only a tiny portion of these have been used on Wikipedia article pages. This is a huge gap that this project aims to bridge. Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos 2026 in the Philippines is part of an international campaign where Wikipedia editors across the world, add photos to Wikipedia articles lacking photos. Photos help to grasp the reader’s attention better than a wall of text, illustrate content, and make the article more instructive and engaging for readers.

The SheSaid 2026-2027 in the Philippines Campaign aims to enrich the platforms of free knowledge — notably Wikiquote, Wikipedia and Wikidata — it gives tribute to the words, ideas, and achievements of inspiring women, including Filipinas, thus bridging the gender gap still present in the digital world. Last year marks the first participation of WikiWomen Filipinas and the PhilWiki Community.
