Hi everyone! Wishathon will begin in less than 12 hours from now. For those planning to join, I hope you're all excited for an adventurous weekend ahead! :D Remember to review the agenda < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:WishathonMarch2024#Schedule%3E a few hours before the event starts, and for those who have signed up to volunteer, check the help desk schedule < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:WishathonMarch2024/Help_desk%3E to remind yourself of the duties you've signed up for.
For experienced contributors, your help with code reviews, providing technical guidance to attendees and monitoring the Wikimedia Hackathon Telegram channel https://t.me/wmhack where we anticipate most activity to take place, is welcome!
Newbies, we hope you have a great time participating, listening to experienced contributors, and learning from them. We are looking forward to your participation :)
Cheers, Srishti

Hello,
We are now only three weeks away from the Wikimedia Wishathon! Exciting news - User:Lucas Werkmeister has signed up to host a piano concert during a social hour 🎉
Join us and contribute to the development of community wishes between March 15th and 17th! Participate in discussion sessions and work on user scripts, gadgets, extensions, tools and more!
The full event schedule is available here: < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:WishathonMarch2024%3E.
Explore the event wiki for project ideas and keep an eye out for non-technical tasks (documentation and design-related) that will soon be added to the Wishathon workboard: < https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/5906/%3E. Project breakouts will also be added to the schedule, where you can participate in wish development or explore innovative solutions as a user, developer, or designer.
We are seeking volunteers to assist with a wide range of activities such as monitoring discussion channels during hacking hours, answering technical queries, and helping with session note-taking. Check out the Help desk schedule and add yourself to a slot where you are available and interested in providing assistance: < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:WishathonMarch2024/Help_desk%3E.
If you have any questions about the Wishathon, reach out via Telegram: < https://t.me/wmhack%3E.
