Wikipedia:Bay Area WikiSalon March 2017
Bay Area WikiSalon series | ||
---|---|---|
Periodically, on a last Wednesday evening of the month, wiki and open-source enthusiasts meet up to mingle, munch, collaborate or learn about new projects and ideas. At each WikiSalon we plan a brief formal presentation; some will help orient people new to the wiki/open-source world, with others geared to more experienced people. Many presentations will have broad appeal to non-wiki/non-open-source folks. We hope you will join us! Note: We are extremely inclusive – broadly construed – plus we adhere to the friendly place policies of the Wikimedia Foundation.

The twelfth in the monthly Bay Area WikiSalon series. Note change of venue: We will be meeting at Noisebridge this month, and we will be back at the WMF Chip Deubner Lounge in April. Noisebridge is two blocks south of the 16th & Mission BART. The front door is locked. Look for the pushbutton in the "phone booth" on the wall - wait for the door release - and then head to the 3rd floor. If you need the elevator, be patient.
We will have two very brief presentations:
- Lightning talks from the floor: any topic that you wish to briefly speak about (1-5 minutes)
- General announcements from the floor: any announcement that you wish to make
Plus we will have:
- Tours of the Noisebridge Hackerspace/Makerspace
Newcomers are encouraged to attend. Bring a friend! Experienced editors will be on hand to help anybody requesting help with editing. The doors open promptly at 6:00 pm. We will have beverages and light snacks, provided by a Rapid Grant from the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) and by anonymous donors. You are welcome to bring your own food or additional adult beverages. Free Wi-Fi is available. Be sure to bring your editing device if you plan to edit. If you cannot come for the whole time, please pop in for a minute and say Hi. Come late, leave early if you need to.
Please note: Please RSVP here, as RSVPing helps us figure out how much food to bring in.
