Hi everyone,

Wiki Loves Monuments international team will attend Wikimedia Conference in Berlin https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2017 and we are eager to see you and engage with you if you will be attending the conference. To facilitate this, we will host a session as part of the conference to discuss with you the plans for Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 and how you can engage with this annual event.

The session is called New ambitions for Wiki Loves Monuments and is described at length on the conference page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2017/Program/24. If you are interested to learn about Wiki Loves Monuments, sign up to organize for the 2017 contest, learn about the new ways to participate in Wiki Loves Monuments beyond the photo competition, or share your challenges and ask questions the session at the conference is the best place to start these conversations.

Not attending the conference? We will keep this mailing list updated with the material that we use during the presentation. You are also encouraged to send a friend or colleague on your behalf, or read more about our major initiatives for 2017 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_International_Team_meeting_2017/Day_3#Projects and ask questions on this mailing list.

For those of you who will be in Berlin, we do look forward to seeing you in the session! :) Note that the schedule for the conference, once finalized, will be shared on wiki https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2017/Schedule. In the mean time, we have a tentative schedule for this session https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FZWxIyGsrq_RB0OStqixd7MpOBRi6pnEtxg6HLvJVw4/edit?ts=589dc2d7#gid=1342369611 on Friday, March 31, at 17:30 local time.
