The '''Saudi Wikimedia User Group''' is a voluntary group dedicated to enriching Wikipedia, and other Wikimedia projects, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Wikimedia Saudi Arabia sponsors various periodic activities to enrich Arabic Wikipedia and spread free knowledge, such as educational lectures, training and editing workshops, and essay writing competitions. We also work with libraries, museums, research centers, and various other parties interested in enriching Arabic content on the Internet.

The Saudi Wikimedia User Group was founded in August 2017, and currently has 25 volunteers interested in participating in 2022.
