DC calls them WikiSalons and I wish I'd gone more and earlier which might have helped with a lot of problems I had over last few years.  Editors in DC are pretty supportive.

Or Editing Party.  Nothing like a party to perk us up :-)

And it really is the best way to help new editors with the ins and outs - and ups and downs ;-( - of being a new editor.
