Hello NC Wiki friends!

I'm staring down a particularly busy November and would like to propose that we hold off on meeting until early December. In lieu of a meeting, there are a handful of things for user group members to do in the next month -- both synchronously and asynchronously.

First, don't forget that Wikiconference North America is coming up the weekend of Nov. 11-12. This is "the annual conference of Wikimedia enthusiasts and volunteers from throughout North America, including Canada, the United States, Mexico, and the Caribbean." This year's event is free and online. I encourage you to attend if you're interested!
Second, we are late in creating our 2021 annual report! Don't let that keep you up at night; we're always late with our annual reports. Nevertheless, staying current with reporting is an important part of our remaining compliant -- and therefore existent -- as a user group. If you participated in any Wiki-related activities in the reporting year May 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022, please add them to our report by Nov. 15. (This is fairly easy, and just requires copying and pasting the formatting from previous years. I've created the structure for the report so it should be super simple.)
Third, there's a ton of photo clean-up still to be done from our spring photo campaign. Please chip in and help! Step-by-step instructions are here; reach out if you have questions!
Finally, at our December meeting, we'll talk about goals and projects for the 2023 calendar year. Think about what we might work on together; it'll be fun to discuss! I'll schedule the meeting for our typical time -- a Thursday evening at 7:00. If you'd like to attend, let me know if certain Thursdays are better or worse for you.

Thanks for all you do! I look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Emily
