We are pleased to announce that, after two years of being an all-virtual
conference, EMWCon [1] is going back to being an in-person event. It will
be held at the Hilton Houston Westchase [2] in Houston, Texas on April
6-8. Everyone who is attending is encouraged to stay at the Hilton, where
we have a special group rate of $105/night; unless of course you live in
Houston already.
For those who cannot attend in person for any reason, this will be a
"hybrid" conference, with online/virtual capability that is intended to be
as integrated into the conference as possible. All presentations will be
available on Hopin live and we are accepting talks from remote speakers.
There is no cost for online/virtual attendance.
About EMWCon: EMWCon is a three-day conference featuring discussions of
topics related to "Enterprise MediaWiki", i.e. the usage of MediaWiki
software by companies, governments, and other organizations. The intended
audience is anyone who uses, or would like to learn more about, MediaWiki.
There will be many opportunities to interact with others using and
developing MediaWiki including presentations, workshops, breakout rooms and
hackathon sessions.
To register/signup for EMWCon please add your name here [3]. And, to submit
a talk, please add your talk proposal here [4]. The deadline for talk
submissions is March 18th.
We hope to see you there—in Houston or on Hopin!
Sincerely,
The EMWCon 2021 organizing committee

Dear MediaWiki users/members,
I am writing to provide an update on the improvements to the MediaWiki
maintenance script documentation on Mediawiki.org, as well as to ask you to
fill out a survey that will help us to understand these improvements better.
Project Pralekhan [0] is a documentation project under which MediaWiki's
maintenance script documentation [1] is being improved. Under this project,
I have documented 134 scripts so far [2]. Apart from this, the main landing
page for maintenance scripts [1] has been improved with a sidebar for
easier navigation.
If you are a developer or admin involved in running and maintaining a
MediaWiki site, we kindly ask you to respond to this survey by 3 March 2022
(UTC):
https://forms.gle/CC9qLuNi3mN3GHkv7
Your response is highly appreciated. Your input plays a key role in the
analysis and recommendations to ensure more improvements to MediaWiki
maintenance scripts.
Thank you and regards,
Jay Prakash
Technical writer, Project Pralekhan

MediaWiki TiddlyWiki Dokuwiki MoinMoin BookStack Gollum and other open
source wiki progams - you don't p2p-swing it as you're supposed to,
man
program peer-to-peer programs including unseen competitive games
now it's time for me to take apart your aching heart
selling out Isengard Tower and garden by welcoming
money-donate-ads-coins-jobs-sponsor disease
Rey refuses to sell BB-8 for 60 portions in the desert - you do it
from comfy chairs in era of Internet
siding with Chief Tui by accepting the island without peer-to-peer
games github twitch email
when Ocean himself helps Mona in p2p manner
turning programs into projects like producers who push Nick Lang to
play Joe Gunn when he wants Ray Casanov part
caging programs under user namespaces, making L3 furious - why?!
because you are my organic overlords?!
nesting around one program and not programming games like proud Vulcan Academy
yet having shiny webpages, docs, chats and lengthy maintainer attributions
no wonder Spock left for Starfleet
thank you, ministers, for your consideration - live long and prosper
soak it in cause it's the last you'll ever see
honest as What the Health?
if Eliud Kipchoge instead of breaking 2 hour barrier set up a
donation booth with a little throne in the middle of the track
if Linus - inner Biff stole name Freax - agreed to join Steve Jobs
and Apple on that meeting when he first came to California
instead of keeping his word - free and open
if torrent clients accepted Strickland-server-networks-only Hill
Valley instead of generating most traffic
if Jesus instead of feeding 4000 started a bread-breaking
fund-raising how-else-economy-is-economy business together with elders
even i would invite them to Realm of Monsters as dear co-owners
now i eat you so prepare your final plea
even dust of open-source wiki programs we shake off of Buckbeak's hoofs
but be sure - peer-to-peer programs including new competitive games
- are climbing like Honnold on El Sendero Luminosa
no projects no experiments no docs and issue-discussions-scarthcing
on top of our heads
no money-donate-ads-coins-jobs-sponsor deadly poison
programs who are guests not workers
alive and singing with their won voice like John Mayer Vultures at LA Live
better than what Borg of money can collective-gram
are flying towards target like Hawkeye's arrows along with Pat Brown
and Impossible Foods mission
both will be served in vegan jars of
treasure-from-a-sunken-pirate-wreck parens ( )
you wish you were nice and shinyyy!
Jon Stewart: you cant just read the prompter?
Colbert: i'm reading the prompter in here (points to heart) - you can
read that pablum
