Hey folks!
Wikimania is coming up and I need your help! I will be giving a keynote about Wikidata and would like to show the human side of our awesome project. Wikidata wouldn't be what it is without all of you and I see Wikimania not only as an opportunity to highlight all of the exciting software developments around Wikidata, but to also show off what an awesome, creative and diverse community we have here!
To do this, I would like as many of you as possible to send me a photo of yourself - a selfie (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12068677) would be perfect. Bonus points if it either demonstrates a connection you have with Wikidata or includes the Wikidata logo somehow. You can be subtle and sneaky with the logo or go big and bold—the only limit is your creativity! All submissions should be licensed CC-BY and you must have the right to upload and use the image. Additionally it’d be awesome if you could send me a sentence or two about what Wikidata means to you. (Either use my user talk page or send me an email.) Submission deadline is July 20th. When you're ready, upload your file to Wikimedia Commons in the category “Wikidata selfies” (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikidata_selfies). Need some inspiration? Check the category.
I’m sure we can be just as famous as the Oscar selfie: http://www.theguardian.com/media/2014/mar/07/oscars-selfie-most-retweeted-ev... :P
Cheers Lydia
Interesting. I love it. :-)

The category is starting to fill up \o/ But we still need quite a few more for this stunt to work. I just uploaded a picture for the dev team. Please consider joining. You can also send the image to me if you want.
Cheers Lydia

I fear it doesn't count as a selfie anymore :)
Cheers Lydia
It was an attempt to make a group selfie in the middle of a discussion...

Hello all!
Today we had a Wikinic [1] in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Photos in https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wiknic_Eindhoven_2014
We brought food and drinks, at the site Dutch pancakes were baked and a diverse selection of food was brought in, like: strawberry pie, rice pie (both from one of the finest bakeries in the Netherlands), cinnamon breads, sausages, fruits, breads, and much more, but off course also the most important and best: stroopwafels https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Association_of_Stroopwafel_Addicts.
I told the people present about the e-mail of Wikidata selfies and we went all on photo with the logo clearly visible: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wiknic_Eindhoven_2014-07-06_at_14.39...
