Geonotices can occasionally be a bit of a touchy subject, because we can get complaints about too many notices, too early notifications, etc. My advice is to ask Harry Mitchell or Redrose64 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Redrose64) to place the notice for you as both of them are regulars at geonotices. They will get the timing right and amalgamate notices if needed. That will make sure that (a) it doesn't step on anyone's toes and (b) work properly!

Cheers

Thank you!

Would you be able to sort a geonotice for this one? I think it may be a hard sell so we need a lot of promotion, but neither me or Richard N knows how to make one. 

Let me know if that's ok. 

Thanks, 
Daria

Wikimedia UK is committed to supporting our volunteers and to encourage them to teach others how to edit Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects, we are running a weekend training workshop. This will take place on the weekend of 23—24 November 2013 in Cardiff. This session is targeted at volunteers in Wales and the immediate surrounding areas. We are especially interested in editors of Wicipedia Cymraeg who work through the Welsh language. However, both English and Welsh language editors will be welcomed.

The workshop will be delivered by a professional training company and aims to improve delegates’ abilities to deliver any training workshop. It’s especially relevant to anybody who already runs Wikimedia-related training, or is very interested in doing so in near future.

The workshop is a chance to:

   - Get accredited and receive detailed feedback about your presenting and training skills
   - Get general trainer skills which you can then apply when delivering specific Wikipedia workshops
   - Share your skills with others
   - Help design a training programme that serves Wikimedia UK in the long term.

The course will run from 9:30 am—6:30pm on Saturday and 9am—5pm on Sunday. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided. We should also be able to cover travel and accommodation if you let us know in advance.

If you are interested in attending, please indicate your commitment by signing up on <https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Training_the_Trainers/November_2013_event>. Spaces are limited to 12 places.

If you are not able to attend this time but would like to take part in the future, please add it to the event page or let me know by email to <katie.chan@wikimedia.org.uk> — we will be offering more sessions in the future.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I can also put you in touch with past participants who will be able to share their experiences with you.

Regards,

Katie
