The New Sister Projects Meetup is a gathering together of Wikimedians interested in experimenting with proposals for new sister projects. There has been no new sister project since 2012! Let's talk about ways to make a more agile process where it is much easier to start small new projects to see if they work out, and maybe also to merge old projects if they do not work out. One such proposal is Wikispore, which involves a Community Wishlist-style contest, but existing proposals like Wikimedia genealogy project, as well as all subject-based and general ideas will be considered. Technical input from small wiki founders/administrators and MediaWiki developers/installers will also be more than welcome! Since this conflicts with other important meetups, we will be glad to schedule a follow-up session later at Wikimania if there is interest. **Saturday, 17 August, 13:00 – 14:00 (1:00 - 2:00 pm) Central European Summer Time - meet at lunchtime in Lessing (D499)** Sign up here: https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Meetups/New_Sister_Projects Thanks, Richard (User:Pharos) _______________________________________________ Wikimania-l mailing list Wikimania-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimania-l
