Events coming up - Wikimediauk-l

23 Oct 2018

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
