Hello Karen,
Good to hear! I am located in San Francisco, but willing to venture to
Berkeley. In addition to this list, we usually organize San Francisco/Bay
Area events at:

If you don't mind hosting a Wikipedia event in San Francisco, I am happy to
help find space at the Wikimedia Foundation office.
Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Karen,
The Oakland Local wiki people have regular meetups once a month or more.
Wikipedians are welcome. I've joined them in the past and enjoyed it quite
a bit! And meeting in the Oakland History room is totally awesome.

Hacker Moms is a hacker space in Berkeley. We approached them about
hosting a women's Wikipedia meetup once, but it didn't work out, I think
because their space wasn't as large as we wanted it to be? Someone else on
the list might remember.

Subject: [Wikimedia-SF] Berkeley Wikipedians
Hello. I am interested in having some meetups (both working and social)
with other wikipedians in this area. I would like to see some meetings
in Berkeley if we can find (or create) a space. There are hacker spaces
in SF and Oakland, but I'm not aware of any in Berkeley that we can use.
I would like to talk to anyone else in Berkeley who might be interested
in finding or getting a space going where we can edit together.
I'm currently working on updating articles relating to librarianship,
but looking at the articles of local interest (Berkeley, Phoebe Hearst,
Free speech movement), there is work we could do, and the resources are
here.
