Wikimedia Hong Kong (WMHK) was 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. It is now a former affiliate due to non-compliance of reporting.

The major aim of Wikimedia Hong Kong may be described as follows:

• To promote the use of Wikimedia Projects.
• To advocate Free culture to the general public in Hong Kong.
• To encourage the freedom of artistic and literary creations.
• To advocate the correct understanding in intellectual properties.
• To advocate the exchange and dissemination of academic knowledge.

Wikimedia Hong Kong will launch different kinds of activities and events on relevant topic, independently or collaborating with local endeavors, to achieve the aim above.
