Having Wikimania during Ramadan doesn't prevent people from attending.
Actually it does. Personally, Ramadhan was one of the reasons I did not attend Wikimania.
This is because, I come from a school where during Ramadhan, I only attend half-day
classes. Also, in most of the Middle East, and some Muslim-centric organisations, people
work significantly less hours in the office. I honestly believe that getting a Muslim to
attend a three full-day conference during Ramadan is difficult.
