Sorry to hear there was an incident at the editathon. I've run or attended many many editathons and I don't recall any thing that would count as an incident, so hopefully such things are rare.

However Wikimedia UK has a friendly space policy, https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Participation_policy you may find it useful when drawing up your code of conduct.

Regards

Our Twitter following is slowly increasing, but certainly within range of other user groups our size. SE will continue to maintain the account while RO will continue to maintain Facebook.  


Edit-a-thons

WWI-Collins Barracks-we had 1 participant at this event. Though the group was small, we did manage to improve several articles dealing with the Irish in WWI. Due to an incident at the event it was decided that a code of conduct should be published before we have another event.

NUIG Writing Centre-10 March-SE will conduct the training on this date. The follow up Edit-a-Thon will take place sometime during the week of 13 April. SE and RO will attend.

Ro is working with WITS to join their event in March.

Cochrane Symposium-April-SE confirmed that we will run a masterclass at this event.


WLM

SE will create a To-Do list for WLM activities. This will be discussed at the next meeting.


Conferences

Misc

RO has created a group on Meetup.com for the Wikimedia Community Ireland to help with recruitment. SE has agreed to personally greet each new member. We are already seeing some activity. It was agreed that we will start to organise some social events for the group. EE will arrange for speakers.
