Dear Community Members,
We are excited to share the program https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Program for this year’s Wikimania with you! This was a huge effort as we received an unexpectedly high number of submissions and as much as possible, we wanted to include all of them. We created two whole new tracks just for this — in addition to the original two, the plenary, and the Unconference and on-demand tracks. We thank you all for your patience and understanding as we bring virtual Wikimania live.
The program table is a work in progress and over the next few days, we will edit and build it out with more information.
We will share a series of blog posts tomorrow on Diff https://diff.wikimedia.org/tag/wikimania-2021/with event specifics and technical solutions for this first-ever virtual edition of Wikimania. All registered participants will also receive specific guidance by email in the next few days.
Upcoming Office Hours and Remo Practice Days https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Organizers: Starting Tuesday, August 3 at 10 AM UTC, we would also like to invite you to join us at our upcoming Office Hours and practice days to walk through our event platform Remo and answer any question you may have around the platform and how to use it. 5 other opportunities are available to hop on Remo and ask us any questions. Please check for a time and day that works for you.
Best Wishes,
Winnie Kabintie (User:Ms_Kabintie https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ms_Kabintie), on behalf of the Wikimania 2021 Core Organizing Team.
