Dear Mark and conference organizers - it totally
slipped my mind that
the conference started yesterday and lasts till tomorrow late.
Would the recording of the conference be available in any shape and form?

Dear Friends and Colleagues
Many thanks for your messages and apologies for the slow response.
I've discussed the situation with my colleagues and everyone agrees
that we could certainly consider waiving the fee in the right
circumstances, and we've updated the conference website (
https://ctn.hkbu.edu.hk/wikiconf2021/) to reflect this. I haven't yet
made a rapid grant request but I'll certainly follow that up, and I'm also
wondering if that suggestion that Anne made earlier was still possibly on
the table? Unfortunately it would be difficult to reschedule the conference
at this stage to allow an application via the Conference Grants round
though.
Anyone with an interest in translation on Wikipedia would be very
welcome to submit a paper proposal. The Call for Papers assumes that paper
proposals will be research-based but I think it would be really excellent
to have contributions from practitioners as well, and if we have enough we
could for example dedicate a session to them. I also think the opportunity
that the conference could potentially give for stimulating exchanges
between practitioners and researchers would be very exciting.
Best regards
Mark
