Hello everyone,
I’m writing with a general update from the Core Organizing Team.
Following our meeting this month in Singapore, where we worked on event strategy, planning and early on-the-ground preparations, we would like to share a general timeline with you:
- By now, all scholarship applicants should have received communications regarding the status of their scholarship application. If you applied but have not received a message, you can email wikimania-scholarships@wikimedia.org. We encourage those who did not receive a scholarship to register for and attend the virtual Wikimania. There also may be some affiliates still offering scholarships, so check with your local affiliate.
- Registration for Wikimania will open in June. We will be communicating it broadly when registration opens so you won’t miss it!
- The Programming Subcommittee is hard at work selecting sessions and building the program. Program applicants will hear during the month of June about whether their session has been selected. We will aim to communicate about this as close to the start of the month as possible. However, there is a lot of work still to be done, so please avoid reaching out to inquire about the status of your application until the end of the month as we are dealing with a large volume of inquiries at this time.
- Most of you have likely seen that the conference will be held at the Suntec Convention Centre. Our opening ceremony will be at Suntec, and our closing party at Gardens by the Bay. We will also be offering outings and activities around Singapore on the 15th (Tuesday) and 20th August (Sunday) for those interested. More information on that to come.
- We have updated the Wikimania Wiki (wikimania.org) to reflect these dates.
