Photos from the Irish referendum

Hello. I am Agastya, a Wikimedian from India. I was wondering if any of you could get some good photographs from tomorrow's Irish referendum for the legality of abortion. It is an important and sensitive topic, and it is possible some people would carry placards/banners for the referendum. There might even be a peaceful protest. Or even if you could get me photos of queues of people waiting in line to vote. Please get some great photos and upload them to Commons as soon as possible. Consider adding Category:May 25, 2018 Irish referendum to the media files. Thank you for your time! -Agastya Chandrakant @acagastya English Wikinews editor, accredited reporter and reviewer

*Wikimedia Community Ireland Newsletter – May 2018* *Sybil at The Hunt Museum* A Wikipedia Edit Workshop is being held at the Hunt Museum, Limerick on May 19th with help from Limerick Lace, the City Museum and the City Library, the Hunt Museum Docents and the people of Limerick and thanks to Eamonn Ryan for creating the beautiful images. Wikipedia is the 5th most popular website in the world, built by volunteers from around the globe. We need your help to create and improve articles, highlighting the amazing achievements of Irish women in fashion and design, particularly those with connections to Limerick and its lace traditions. No experience is necessary - we will teach you how to edit and help you to find high quality reference material. More details will be announced soon through The Hunt Museum website. *Celtic Knot 2018* The Celtic Knot is returning for 2018! It is a conference which brings together people from Celtic and minority languages to discuss and share their experiences of using Wikipedia in their language work. Applications are now open for the scholarships, find more information here <https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Celtic_Knot_Conference_2018>. We are very excited to announce that Rebecca O'Neill, Meghan Dowling, and Abigail Walsh will be presenting on what has been happening on Vicipéid in the past year, and what it has been like to use Vicipéid in university teaching. *Editing events in TOG Hackerspace* We will be continuing our monthly editing events in TOG Hackerspace on Wednesday 30 May <https://www.meetup.com/Tog-Dublin-Hackerspace/events/ltrdkpyxhbnc/> from 7-9pm. Whether you are new to Wikipedia or an old hand at editing, come along for a chat with fellow Wikimedians! All you need is a laptop, WiFi and pizza will be provided! To get a reminder about this and other upcoming event sign up on the TOG Meetup page <https://www.meetup.com/Tog-Dublin-Hackerspace/>, or follow us on Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/WikimediaIreland> or Twitter <https://twitter.com/WikimediaIE>. *Getting Involved!* Is there an event you think Wikimedia Community Ireland should get involved in, or should look at organising? Do you have idea for an event or campaign you'd like to work on with us? Or have any other good ideas, then get in touch, we'd love to hear from you! -- ---------------------- Wikimedia Community Ireland Chair - Shannon Eichelberger Project Coordinator - Rebecca O'Neill Online: Wikimedia Community Ireland <http://wikimedia.ie> On Twitter: @WikimediaIE <https://twitter.com/WikimediaIE> On Facebook: Wikimedia Ireland <https://www.facebook.com/WikimediaIreland> On Instagram: wikimediaie <https://www.instagram.com/wikimediaie/> On Meetup: Wikimedia Community Ireland Meetup <https://www.meetup.com/Wikimedia-Community-Ireland-Meetup/>
