Dear Wikimania contributors,

(...and others on the list, but this mail is principally directed at people giving presentations...)

As you may have noticed if you've been keeping an eye on the Wikimania site, we've been working on building this year's Proceedings. We're now ready to start adding your slides, the full text of your papers, the full images for your posters and so on to the Proceedings.

You can send in submissions to us at wikimania-program@wikimedia.org; please send them here rather than uploading them directly to the Wiki so that we can make sure they end up in the right places and in the right formats.

If you're unsure about what we want these submissions for, where we're going to put them, what we're going to do with them, then please take a look at our Guidelines for contributors. This explains in detail where and in what format to send submissions, what the editing process will be and how the final result will be licensed. http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proceedings:Guidelines_for_contribut...

We've also produced a Style Guide to help you as you prepare your submissions: this isn't 100% binding as it would be with an academic publisher, but for the sake of consistency within the Proceedings we'd like to stick with it as much as possible. Citing sources properly is, as it should be, non-negotiable. http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proceedings:Style_guide

If you have any questions then please just let me know. (Unfortunately I'm going to be away from the 5th to the 21st of August, but I'll do my best to reply quickly.)

Best wishes,

N.
