I think attachments of certain sizes are automatically stripped off.
Otherwise, it doesn't come through at all. If the list can be put somewhere
online and the link shared?

HI Douglas,
All exciting stuff and well done for organising it all!! Please can you
copy
and paste the Heritage Western Cape information or send us all a link as it
didn't come through to the list (perhaps there is a rule against
attachments?).
I hope to make the next meet up. Or the Open Book one. Both sound great.
Warmest
Isla

Subject: [Wikimedia ZA] Wiki Loves Monumens update & Open Book festival
Hello everyone,
Thank you to everyone who attended the Cape Town meetup and scavenger
hunt
today <
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Cape_Town/Cape_Town_6>gt;.
I think it went well and I am looking forward to
organising another one
in
Cape Town.
*Future WLM events in Sept*
On that note I want to announce that we will be having another Wiki Loves
Monuments scavenger hunt in Cape Town CBD on the evening of the 20th
September (Saturday) and another one during the day on the 27th September
in Franschhoek.
I will keep you all posted on the details but I want to have the 20th
Sept
scavenger hunt in the V&A Waterfront area of
Cape Town. Please RSVP with
be before hand.
I have also attached a list of activities that Heritage Western Cape is
organising during this month. Please feel free to attend any of the
events
as I am sure they will present some great
opportunities to take some
great
pictures of monuments.
I would like to know if anyone else would be interested in organising
something for Wiki Loves Monuments some time this month? It would be
nice
to have a few event take place outside of the
Western Cape.
*Open Book Festival*
I also want to invite Wikipedians to join us for the Open Book
edit-a-thon
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Open_Book_Festival_Edit-a-Thon_2014>
that
will be part of the Open Book Festaval. It will
be a short 1 hour long
event that will take place on Saturday the 20th September at 8pm.
We will be editing articles on South Africa authors and we have
organised a
small group of university students to help with
the editing but we need
some more experienced editors as well.
There is a list of 10 authors that we really want to create before or on
the day. I have attached the list of them with a list of references for
anyone that is interested. We will need to create a number of new
articles
on South Africa authors and move them to main
space during the
edit-a-thon.
All the best,
--
