Hi all,

The Wikimedia Hackathon https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2022 is 1 week away, on May 20-22. As promised, a few more updates:

We are looking for people to help us run an awesome and smooth event! If you’re interested in helping with facilitating a room or newcomer support, you can add your name to the Helper Roles page https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2022/Schedule/RoomShifts .

There’s still time to add a session or social activity. You can pick an open slot in the category which fits your topic and add the session directly to the schedule https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2022/Schedule.

Want to learn how to make your session interactive? Read this guide https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2022/Schedule/Sessions#Tips_on_how_to_make_your_session_interactive on how to create fun, interactive sessions! We previously shared details on how to propose a session https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2022/Schedule/Sessions#How_to_propose_a_session and how to prepare for a session https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2022/Schedule/Sessions#How_to_prepare_for_your_session .

We look forward to seeing you next week!

Melinda, for the hackathon committee
