Hi all,

I had a great time on Thursday evening - thank you all so much for the enjoyable welcome to Chicago.

The talk to the American Psychological Association went well this morning. I'm hopeful that WP:PSYCH can be re-invigorated - maybe with a formal collaboration with the APA. Sadly the recording didn't work for this talk. I've attached my slides anyway, and most of it is pretty understandable without my voiceover (some animations, so best to view in powerpoint). Maybe I'll re-record it at some point and stick it up on commons or youtube. I'll try again to record the next Sunday talk on WikiJournals!

All the best,
Thomas

Awesome! We are in the restaurant section, not the rooftop!

Hello all,

Poll consensus has indicated Thursday, August 8, 6:00pm – 9:00pm as the preferred time. We'll be meeting at that time in downtown Chicago at Plymouth Restaurant & Rooftop Bar. Food will be covered, tentatively up to $10 per attendee (up to $150 total); drinks will not be covered. Take a look at our meetup page on Wikipedia for a more detailed agenda, and to sign up (please sign up if you think you can make it)!

Feel free to drop by or head out at any time during the meetup! Looking forward to seeing some of you there.

Best,
Brian Choo

Update: I've just applied for a $250 microgrant from Wikimedia NYC to make this meetup a 2019 Wikinic. This would cover food costs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiknic

Hello Chicago Wikimedians,

Wikimedian Thomas Shafee will be visiting from Australia this August, and it's a great chance for us to plan a casual meetup. I've created a handy dandy doodle poll to gauge availability. Current time options are for the evenings on Thursday, August 8 and Saturday, August 10. The location will most likely be a restaurant in downtown Chicago. If you'd like to attend, please fill it out. I'll be in touch around next week with more concrete plans based on poll results.

If you know of anyone who may be interested in attending but isn't part of this listhost, please let them know they're invited! Please be in touch on here, our Facebook group, or our meta page if you have any questions or communications.

Looking forward to seeing you all in August!

Best,
Brian Choo
