However, I wanted to send it here too because there are probably subscribers to this list (both committee members and observers) who don't follow the other list. I hope you don't mind the disturbance. :-) ---------- Forwarded message --------- Fra: Jon Harald Søby <jhsoby(a)gmail.com> Date: ons. 29. mai 2019 kl. 15:46 Subject: Are you going to Wikimania? Submit session proposals until June 9th! To: Languages discussion and Wikimedia Indigenous Languages <languages(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Hello everyone, I am one of the co-leaders of the Language space for this year's Wikimania in Stockholm. There are many different "spaces" (think "tracks", but a bit wider) this year, and one of them is the language space. Unfortunately, there have not been too many proposed sessions for it yet (that actually goes for many of the spaces), so I would like to invite anyone who is planning to attend Wikimania and has something cool and language-related to talk about to submit a session proposal for our space (or any other space you might be interested in). A session doesn't have to be a presentation – the aim this year is to make Wikimania a more interative experience than it has been previously. So the format of a session is very open – you could hold workshops to e.g. implement cool ideas from your language's community in other languages, or hold a panel or roundtable discussion. We could even have a language quiz, just something relaxing and fun. So if you have any ideas that you would be able to, please submit a proposal. The deadline was just today extended until June 9th (it was originally in 2 days), but sooner is better. :-) You can submit proposals for the language space in the link above, or check out the other spaces here. Thank you, and see you (hopefully) in Stockholm! -- mvh Jon Harald Søby _______________________________________________ Langcom mailing list Langcom(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/langcom
