Wikimania
located in Sweden in 2019. The proposal https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2019_bids/Sweden from the Wikimedia Sweden chapter was accepted. The committee appreciates and
values
the long standing interest of Wikimania Sweden to host an event, and we believe that hosting Wikimania will be an opportunity to boost Wikimedia projects there with a specific focus on public art, a field in which the Swedish Sverige team has been particularly active. The exact location of the conference will be confirmed at a later date.The Wikimania Committee reviewed and discussed four very strong proposals https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2019 to host Wikimania in
We would also like to thank the proposers from Sweden, Armenia, Perth,
and
Prague for all their efforts in putting together materials for our consideration and their time spent discussing the possibilities. It is
