Hi Daryna,
Thanks for the additional suggestions!
The round table will be hosted by Effeietsanders, who is one of the founders of Wiki Loves Monuments from back in 2010 and currently serves as advisor to the international team. The round table is a continuation of the
WLM office hour we had on the same topic earlier this year (see also
here for a previous exchange on this email list after introducing the topic). I will be there as well, and would be thankful to have a wide representation of WLM organizers at the table to hear your thoughts and considerations. I will leave it to Effeietsanders to more exactly frame the conversation we will be having in Katowice next week.
Wikimania in my opinion is a great event to connect, and learn, and... have fun! For me personally, it happens very rarely that I am 'wikied out', but these 5 days of our global conference actually do the trick. If you are in a hotel with other Wikimedians, expect to be talking Wiki from the moment you leave your room for breakfast (you will already run into other Wikimedians in the elevator), until your last drink of the day before you retire for a bit of rest. I ❤️ it.
Best,
Ciell
Thanks, Ciell, for suggesting additional sessions of interest!
I can add that there also will be a session with posters (and we do have some Wiki Loves X posters there):
Poster session, Friday, August 09, from 17:45–19:00 (Poland), Gdańsk Main Hall (streaming + interpretation)
I would be also presenting a lightning talk on Wiki Loves Monuments as a way to document destroyed cultural heritage on Friday, in case people on the list are interested.
Regarding the round table on International wiki photo competitions and armed conflict: if and how, which is of utmost relevance for the Ukrainian community, so I would be very curious to find out who will be a part of the discussion, as there is only one speaker mentioned there, but as it is hosted by the international Wiki Loves Monuments team, I think we can expect to receive more information in the coming days?
Please share any other relevant sessions here, this will be my first Wikimania, and I would like to get the most out of it!
