Hi Everyone,

Happy New Year! Hope you are excited for a fruitful new year of Wikipedia :)

Major Wikipedia events - 

1. Wikipedia Anniversary Celebration (Boston) : 
As per our last Dec-2016 meet-up discussion, we are planning to host Wikipedia Anniversary Celebration event on Saturday, 14th January. Last year celebration event was a success, and we are planning to continue the tradition. We will share details soon. 

2. Wikipedia Anniversary Celebration (New York) : 
The Wikipedia Day 16th Birthday Bash NYC is a celebration and mini-conference to be held on Sunday, January 15, 2017, hosted by Wikimedia New York City at the Ace Hotel in Manhattan. 

3. Wikimedia Conference (Germany) and report writing: 
The New England Wikimedians user group is eligible to send a representative to the 2017 Wikimedia Conference taking place from 31 March to 2 April 2017 in Berlin, Germany. 
We also need to update our user group report.  I have updated previous 2014/2015 reports and 2016 report is pending. Anyone interested in helping me to write 2016 report? Also, anyone interested in representing our group at next Germany conference? 

Looking forward to your suggestions and hope to see you soon at next Wikipedia Anniversary Celebration event on 14th January! : ) 

Keep Sharing, Keep Inspiring! 


Best,
