Evelin raises an interesting perspective about " the only good place to ever do it is Europe" , historically Wikimania has spent a lot of time in Europe because it had large individual communities
Note that includes the first Wikimania, in Frankfurt, which was originally only planned as a one-off event... before we decided the conference was really cool and should happen again :)
I don't know of a comprehensive list of regional conferences throughout the years but there have been dozens.... WikiIndaba, Iberoconf, WikiConference North America, WikiArabia, Wikimedia CEE, ESEAP... and many of these have been quite large. Suffice to say, Wikimedians seem to like to get together :) I would like to see the movement keep working on making really excellent virtual events too, as I think there's a lot more to explore in that realm too.
cheers,
Phoebe
