Hello everyone,

Wikimania 2022 https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania, the annual international Wikipedia conference, is almost a month away now and will be taking place on 11 - 14 August.

Although the main Wikimania event this year will be held entirely digitally the event organisers are encouraging the hosting of very local mini-Wikimania events around the world during the conference. This will allow participants to both attend the international Wikimania event digitally whilst also meeting with people face-to-face in their area. Wikimedia South Africa will be hosting a mini-Wikimania in Cape Town and Johannesburg.

If you are interested in joining us at either the Cape Town or Johannesburg event then please let us know by filling out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdqQ-EFEfoYnzLYWjtrHkgoCQcecM5-rxuM...

Catering will be provided and a few local events are being prepared. This will be a great opportunity to meet other members of the Wiki community so please feel free to join us and share with others that you feel might also be interested.

More details to follow in the near future. You can also check this page on our website http://wikimedia.org.za/wiki/Template:/Wikimania_2022 for more details in the future.

Regards,

Douglas Wikimedia South Africa
