Dear Wikimedians,
If you wish to be part of the Wikimedia Summit 2019 [1] and you have not yet registered, please be reminded that registration closes on Monday, December 17, 2018. You can sign up using the link below [2].
== Eligibility criteria == Please have the eligibility criteria [3] for participating in the Wikimedia Summit in mind and make sure that your affiliate is marked as ready to register before filling out the registration form. Chapters, Thematic Organizations and User Groups must have shown signs of recent activity, be up-to-date on their reporting [4] and need to have have been officially recognized by the Wikimedia Foundation before January 1, 2018 in order to attend the Wikimedia Summit.
It’s all set and you have been selected to represent your affiliate? Then please proceed with submitting the registration form [5].
== Office Hour == We already had two office hours some time ago where people asked specific questions on the Wikimedia Summit, like visa procedures, eligibility criteria, program design, etc.
We would be happy to organize another office hour, but we are a bit unsure, if there’s interest to enjoy another one. So please answer (briefly) directly to wmsummit@wikimedia.de if you are interested in another office hour that could take place before December 20.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Best regards,
Cornelius & Michelle For the Wikimedia Summit Organizing Team Wikimedia Deutschland wmsummit@wikimedia.de

Hi, Last year some oppurtunity was given in the name of "Additionally invited communities". But this year I couldnt see any section. For example Tamil language doesnt have a user group on its own. But has a good wiki presence through different projects. Is there a way for participation of such larger communities this year too?
Regards J. Balaji

Hi J. Balaji,
indeed, the Wikimedia Conference 2018 had this option. However, as we are changing the whole concept of the event (also a reason for a name change) and limiting the number of participants to 200 max., we cannot invited unaffiliated groups ( = groups that do not have an affiliate status [yet]).
Both, the Wikimedia Conference and the Wikimedia Summit are *affiliate conferences*, means we want to keep focussing on Wikimedia affiliates and the Wikimedia Foundation.
Best regards, Cornelius
