Hi, Pavanaja.

As the conference FAQ page[1] mentions, there will be no streaming, and walk-in ad hoc attendance is discouraged.

Folks who have registered have received all the information.

As for documentation by participants, I'm sure that will begin to show up once the conference proper begins (tomorrow morning).

Namaste,

 

Wkiconference India 2023 starts tomorrow. The home page is here - https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2023

I have many questions –

  • Where the event is happening?
  • If someone just wants to walk-in, where he/she should go?
  • Sessions are listed. But no details. There could have been link to the submissions so that we can know what are the details
  • No mention of links to online streaming. No live streaming?

 

I just observed something peculiar about this event. Most details, for ex., venue, are kept as secret. What is the necessity to do so? When I travel to such events, I start posting in social media (FB, Insta, Twitter, Whatsapp status) about the event, start posting photos from airport itself till end of event. So far I did not see a single post about the event, the venue, the goodies, the sessions, etc. What’s going on? Whether the organisers have put a ban on such activities? If that is the case, then it is totally against the philosophy of free knowledge and open society.

 

I am just wondering. I am sure many more also will be wondering.

 

Thanks and regards,

Pavanaja
