Hi, Scott. Can you please summarize your lightning talk in simpler English, and add an estimated number of minutes you will require? Simply EDIT your current one.
Also, please go here and start a NEW SECTION to discuss the details of an Open-Space gig: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Meetup/SF/Wikipedia_Day_2017
Be sure to sign your post with 4 tildes.
If you want to ping me from the Talk page, use this template: {{u|Checkingfax}}
Note: You have to ping and sign in the same Save; you cannot go back and "fix" your ping if you do not do one or the other at the same time (ping and sign).
So, it looks like this: ==== Hi, {{u|Checkingfax}}. Blah. Blah. ~~~~ ====
Then, Preview it, then Save it.
PS: I am okay with being outed, but generally it is best to stick with usernames on Talk pages for privacy, safety, and doxing reasons. Just a heads up. Cheers! Wayne 925-899-4051

Hi Wayne,
Just added a lightning talk proposal "CC World University and School adding CC MIT OCW in 7 languages into CC Wikidata - and then into CC Wikipedia?" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/SF/ Wikipedia_Day_2017#Lightning_talks .
I might also explore facilitating open space sessions for both a) "Queries" and b) "Citoid" re Wikipedia from Wikidata, building on these:
https://blog.wikimedia.de/2016/10/30/10-cool-queries- for-wikidata-that-will-blow-your-mind-number-7-will-shock-you/
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid
partly to learn about these myself. But I'd look for someone to co-facilitate these, since I don't know them very well myself.
Suggestions for people for co-facilitating these?
Scott

Hi, y'all. All hands on deck! Bay Area WikiSalon is hosting a Wikipedia Day 16 in SF on January 15, and we could use some planning help in making it more interesting, fun, and useful. Please add your ideas to the event page - it's a wiki!
We would also like to run an edit-a-thon in the corner of the lounge during the party. Anybody up for coordinating that?
Please edit our event page directly so we can start advertising right away! We could also use a video to run during setup and for early arrivals. Got any ideas? Also, please start thinking about ways of promoting this. Thanks! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/SF/Wikipedia_Day_2017
