Of course, those were just new events I added to the Events list. There are things in Edinburgh too on the list.

There's also been a suggestion of holding a meetup in Nottingham, which I'd like to help organise, but may need some community help to do so (find a suitable venue, help with informing people who might want to come).

Hi all, I've been quite busy organising some upcoming events. We have a presentation and a short editathon this weekend at Mozfest, an editathon at Newspeak House, and two meetups (Wikidata and a skillshare) at the office in London. I hope we will be doing a skillshare at the office each month from now on, so if you have ideas for important Wikimedia skills that should be disseminated more widely in the community, and if you'd like to lead a workshop to teach others about it, please let me know.

For the Sunday of Mozfest, Mozilla have allowed us to offer our community 50% discounted 1 day tickets if you would like to attend that day of the conference. The discount code can be found here.


October 27 - Mozfest - Under the hood: How understanding Wikipedia’s internal structure and community can teach media literacy - 11.15-12.45


October 28 - Mozfest - LGBT+ Middle East and North Africa (and more!) editathon - 2-5.30pm


November 4 - Middle Eastern Human Rights editathon at Newspeak House, London - 12-4pm


November 7 - Wikidata meetup, Wikimedia UK office in London - 6-9pm


November 21 - Wikimedia UK skillshare - Writing a Featured Article at the Wikimedia UK office, London

All the best,

John Lubbock
