Hi all,
*(Please forward to whoever this may concern.)*
On request of Wendy the Weasel the following notes from the Wikimedia
Conference 2017 in Berlin.
1.
At the conference 16 mascots were present, of which 13 are on the group
photo, and 3 sadly stayed in the hotel room during the group photo.
The group photo of the plushies, supported by the rest of the participants
of the Wikimedia Conference, has been tagged and added to the Meta page.
The tag contains all names + species, so far known! From 3 mascots the
personal assistants were gone too fast to ask for the names, *who can help?*

2.
During the group photo the traditional cuteness meetup took place. As
transparency and cuteness are core principles of the Wikimedia movement, it
is good to show that the cute mascots are everywhere. Therefore a list of
cuties has been created at:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Cuteness_Association/Membership_l…
Please check and fill in missing fields. Also some mascots still need to be
added.
3.
The Wikimedia Cuteness Association (WCA) has now a Wikidata item at:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q29169245
Please help with filling other statements!
One question that comes up is when the WCA was founded?
Thank you for the great meeting says Wendy,
Romaine
assistant of Wendy the Weasel
