Dear Community Members,
Wikimania is only two weeks away (Aug. 13-17) and we are very excited to welcome each of you. The program is shaping up well and we look forward to sharing that with you very soon. Registration remains open https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Registration. We surpassed 1800 registrants today! Registering is the best way to enjoy the virtual experience, to take part in social activities, and to start receiving information from the organizers.
I would also like to invite movement groups and affiliates to sign up for a table in the virtual Community Village https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Community_Village space. You can learn more about the available resources and times, as well as sign-ups on the page. Each table will be equipped with a digital Miro https://miro.com/ whiteboard where you can share text, images and videos about your work and community. You do not need people to be at the tables. There are 140 tables available, so please consider sharing with a neighbor or region.
The Unconference https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Unconference space is also open and you can sign up to host a session there. If we were not able to include your submission as part of the main programming, you are more than welcome to host it here. Unconference is a great opportunity to connect with fellow Wikimedians in a more intimate and casual setting. You can learn more on the page.
Thank you very much and see you all at Wikimania.
Best Wishes, Winnie Kabintie (User:Ms_Kabintie https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ms_Kabintie), on behalf of the Wikimania 2021 Core Organizing Team.
Received.
