Hey NC Wikipedians! Last night's meeting was a fun one -- we got to connect remotely to a biergarden hangout with members of the NYC chapter. Mark your calendars: Our next meeting will take place on *Thursday, August 25, at 7pm.* This will also be a fun one: We'll use it as a working session to review the photos that were submitted during WikiPixNC and take care of some other event follow-ups (including sending user page messages to photo submitters). If you love editing with groups of people, this one's for you! Zoom link to come. Emily
