Their journey from campers to organisers highlights the lasting impact of the camp and the strength of the Wikimedia community. Together with this year's participants, they contributed 30 new and improved Wikipedia articles, more than 300 media files to Wikimedia Commons, and over 400 Wikidata edits, ensuring that the camp leaves a lasting contribution to open knowledge.</translate>

| summary9 = <translate><!--T:19--> Looking back at the period from December 2025 to the first half of 2026, I see it as an important moment for EduWiki work in Albania.

More than anything, it reminded me that EduWiki work is not only about organizing one training or one editathon. It is about building trust with schools and universities and showing, step by step, that Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects can be useful learning spaces.</translate>
