Hi, can I please have Wikimania2008 participant statistics by project? I'd love to know how many Wikimedians registered themselves of which project. Just curious, but if available, I'd like to incorporate this stuff to my talk on a local conference where I'll give a brief introduction meta and its community. Cheers, -- KIZU Naoko http://d.hatena.ne.jp/Britty (in Japanese) Quote of the Day (English): http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/WQ:QOTD

Newyorkbrad speech at Wikiconference New York
by Newyorkbrad (Wikipedia) 13 Sep '09

13 Sep '09

I was very sorry that real-world scheduling conflicts prevented me from attending the Wikimania conference in Buenos Aires last month. I was disappointed that I did not have the opportunity to meet and interact with many of my fellow Wikipedians/Wikimedians worldwide. For those who may be interested, the talk I had planned to give at this year's conference -- and hope I will have the opportunity to give at a future Wikimania -- would have been similar to the talk I gave a month earlier at the 2009 Wikiconference New York. The video of that talk has now been posted and is available at: http://www.archive.org/details/nywikiconf_newyorkbrad_26july2009 The (somewhat pompous) title of the talk is "Wikipedia, the Internet, and the Future of Privacy." (Later in the day, there was a session where I answered some questions regarding my talk. The video for the Q&A is not yet available, but I will post the link to it when it is.) I hope this may be of interest and again, I hope to meet many of you at a future Wikimania. (And now I am off to today's New York meet-up in a few minutes.) Newyorkbrad

Yes, please! They'll be included also in the proceeding's page on Wikimania wiki (very nice). You can also upload here: http://wikimania2009.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Presentation_slides if you have copyright problems (e.g. copyrighted embedded screenshots or whatever). Nemo

Re: [Wikimania-l] Thank you!

Indeed, what Florence & everyone said -- this year's Wikimania was fantastic. There were several details that especially shone: - the great swag; the book was my favorite part - the welcome dinner and all the nice information for arriving attendees - the tight moderation & room volunteer team, who kept everything cracking along on schedule; this team of folks deserves extra applause - simultaneous translation!!! - videos of all the talks!!!! - the great common areas - coffee all the time :) I also heard lots of praise for the conference program, and for the city itself. I also know a lot of work got done, and hundreds of interesting conversations were had; I hope a lot of good results come out of this year's conference. Most of the details I listed above are based on ideas that have come out of past wikimanias; so I'd encourage everyone to post their feedback (let's start http://wikimania2009.wikimedia.org/wiki/Feedback for survey-feedback, as well as http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimania_2011)... and if you're interested, please help out with the planning for next year and future conferences if you can. Thanks again to an organized, dedicated and responsive team that spent the past 18 months working on this conference; your hard work definitely paid off. -- phoebe On Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 9:50 PM, Florence Devouard<anthere(a)anthere.org> wrote: > Nathan wrote: >> I wasn't there, but I'll echo Erik, Ting and Jerry - from everything >> I've read, the organizers did a great job and really represented the >> Wikimedia community well.
