Surströmming
by Deryck Chan 30 Aug '19

30 Aug '19

Apparently Wikimania will coincide with Surströmming day in Sweden this year [1]. Anyone fancy trying this smelly Swedish delicacy together? (More discreet, private offers to take me to try this fish also welcome. I'm a big fan of Cantonese salted fish [2] so I'm fairly confident I can cope with Surströmming.)

Remembering Wikimedians // Mourning corner at Wikimania
by Cornelius Kibelka 27 Aug '19

27 Aug '19

*Dear Wikimedians,* We are a strong, large, and diverse communities that is constantly growing. Nevertheless, over the years some of us pass away and leave us. Wikimania – as our global gathering – is an opportunity to honour them and remember them. For that reason, as this year's Wikimania, I have create a "Mourning corner" where you can take your time and mourn those that have passed away. The corner is outside directly left of the main entrance of the Aula Magna building. It is a bench close to a tree, the tree is decorated with white origami cranes. On the Wikimania map, the bench is marked as "H" (also called *Sirleaf Bench*). I've uploaded a map indicating it <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimania_2019_map_with_mourning_co…> .[1] If you have any questions regarding the Mourning corner, please let me know.

Wikimania remote meetup
by Daniel Mietchen 17 Aug '19

17 Aug '19

Dear all, with all the meetups taking place in person right now at Wikimania, I thought about setting up a remote one as well and eventually went ahead to put it on the schedule for Saturday August 17 from 20:00 Swedish time (i.e 18:00 UTC) for initially an hour but possibly longer. As this email will not update, the most recent information on the matter should be on the wiki page at https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Meetups/Wikimania_remote_meetup . Hope to meet some of you there! Daniel
