Hi everyone,
I can now confirm our March meetup will happen at Double Union (650 Florida St suite m), and the
event registration page is up. We have also secured a video conference system! If you would like to
join us online, please send me an email. We have not tried setting it up yet, so expect we might bump into a few issues, but we will do our best.
On the agenda:
- introductions: who does not love a good Wikiography?
- take aways from WikiCredCon (also: free teeshirts)
- pizza
- upcoming events (SF historical society, photowalks, updates about SFPL)
- general discussion/anything you'd like to add
We will then break into smaller groups. Travis will be introducing tools for developers interested in supporting wikimedia projects, so if you have a friend who qualifies, please bring them! I'll be happy to help any new or recent editor, and as usual Elan can help with wikidata projects.

A message and an invitation from the researchers who presented their work last month:
Hi Everyone,
Thank you for listening to our presentation on AI-Assisted
Wikipedia Editing on 02/13 and providing some great feedback! Here's the Wikimedia
Research project
link for those interested.
We're looking for Wikipedia
Editors to try out our system. We're able to generate suggested edits,
on certain articles or entity types you're interested in to try out our
system!
If you're interested, please fill out the following signup

Please let us know if you have any questions at
revanth3@illinois.edu /

Best regards,

Finally, a follow-up from last month's presentation about threats to editor: this comes recommended by one of our member as a list of resources on privacy and security for editors. We can discuss this further in person
Hope everyone is enjoying the great weather!
Emeline, Elan and Travis
