Come one, come all!
Our next meeting for Wikimedia NYC is this Sunday June 1 at Columbia University.
This is a meeting for volunteers to the projects of the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, and everyone else too, who has ever looked at Wikipedia and wondered what's going on behind it.
Organizational issues on the agenda will include electing a board of directors for the Wikimedia NYC chapter, and preparing for a "Wiki Week" or "Wiki Conference" with Columbia Free Culture for the fall at Columbia University
There will also be presentations from Wikipedians/Wikimedians on a number of different topics in the projects.
We welcome all guests. If you support open education and free culture, we are your people. If you have a project you want to work on with us, this is a great opportunity to get acquainted. If you want someone to give a talk or teach a class with an inside view of Wikipedia, meet your volunteers. And if you just have any questions, we'd be glad to try to answer them.
---Meeting details---
2:30 PM - 5:00PM: Room 1402 Pupin Hall, Columbia University. Take the elevator to the 13th floor and then walk up one flight of stairs. Meeting to be held in the library at the east end of the hall.
5:00 PM onwards: Meetup at Pupin Hall, and then walk together to The Symposium, a local Greek restaurant with an oddly appropriate name. After the restaurant, we can return to Pupin Hall for an observing session with the telescopes on the roof, weather permitting.
