Hello, all--
Happy almost-Thanksgiving! I'm writing for two reasons: first, there is an
upcoming edit-a-thon in Lowell, and the organizers would welcome additional
support from local Wikipedians. So if you're in that area and would like to
participate, please contact the organizers -- the first event is December
7th, but it's actually part of a larger series focused on Lowell history.

And second, it's about time for an end-of-year New England Wikimedian
meeting. These are often held on a weekend afternoon, to allow as many
people as possible to attend. We have two possible dates, so I'd like to
ask the group to vote:

(I've used a Doodle poll so that anyone can reply, with or without a Meetup
or Wikipedia account.)
Please join us to discuss our Fall happenings, plan for the Spring, and
share the holiday spirit. You do not need any prior experience with
Wikipedia — all are welcome!
