[resending to foundation-l] August seems to be "Wiki conference month" this year : WikiSym is moved back to Aug 21-23 (in Odense), and both Dutch Wikimedians (ca. August 20) and Chinese Wikimedians (August 27-29) are arranging August meetups around Wikimania. I like the familiar look of the Chinese page... ;-) but there are logo / name issues involved. How should such events be named? The Dutch event gets "Wikimedia Conference" in there. 'Wikimania' is a nice nickname for the global conference; it might be useful if it were unique. But it would also be nice to have a way of indicating solidarity among other related events. (For geeks in the US, think 'Foo Camp' vs. 'Bar Camp') http://nl.wikimedia.org/wiki/WCN http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:2006%E4%B8%AD%E6%96%87%E7%B6%AD%E5%9… Below is an email sent by Siriudie from Chinese Wikipedia to the foundation, asking whether they could use a derivative of the foundation logo for their satellite event... which raises the question: what do we want to do for Wikimania proper? Does it make sense to have a separate icon for Wikimania, in addition to the (unaltered) Wikimedia logo? There was a recent suggestion that we use a version of Ben Yates' swoosh logo for Wikimania: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_ideas/Cafe_Press#Print-On-Demand… Regards, SJ On 3/13/06, wikimania-l-bounces(a)wikipedia.org <wikimania-l-bounces(a)wikipedia.org> wrote:
