Today I saw that in the Signpost an article was written about Wikimania. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2015-08-26/Op-ed
There are a lot of comments and I also added mine.
I found the idea that the organisers from the 2016 edition brought in, that Wikimania is the conference of the community, something to think about, as this property has implications.
