Hello all, *(with apologies for cross-posting)*
We’re happy to announce that the next annual Wikimedia Hackathon will be taking place May 2nd - 4th, 2025 in Istanbul, Turkey https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2025! This event is being organized by the Wikimedia Foundation in collaboration with local Wikimedia affiliate, Wikimedia Community User Group Turkey (WMTR) https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Turkey.
The Wikimedia Hackathon is an annual event to bring the global technical community together to connect, hack, and explore new ideas. Technical contributors from all around the world come together to improve the technological infrastructure and software that powers and benefits the Wikimedia projects.
During the Hackathon, we will focus on bringing together people who have already contributed to the many technical aspects of Mediawiki and our Wikimedia projects, those who know how to find their way around on our technical ecosystem, and who are able to work or collaborate on projects rather autonomously.
The 2025 Hackathon will happen in-person, onsite at the Renaissance Polat Istanbul Hotel https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/istrn-renaissance-polat-istanbul-hotel/overview/ , and we’ll have discounted room codes for those that want to stay at the hotel venue, to be announced in the coming weeks.
For those unable to attend in person, we'll be live-streaming the Hackathon opening ceremony and closing showcase. Local and global communities are also welcome and encouraged to organize pre-hackathon events or related meetups.
Next steps:
-
Event registration will open on November 12, 2024 and will close mid April 2025, or earlier based on event capacity.
-
There are a limited number of scholarships that can be requested during early registration and all scholarships provided will adhere to the WMF travel policy https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Scholarship_travel_policy guidelines. -
Scholarship requests will only be accepted for consideration until December 10, 2024. -
Mark your calendars and register early!
All participants will adhere to the Code of Conduct https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Code_of_Conduct for Wikimedia technical spaces and the Friendly Space Policy https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Friendly_space_policy.
If you have any questions or would like to reach out to the organizing team, feel free to email hackathon@wikimedia.org or comment on the talk page https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Wikimedia_Hackathon_2025&action=edit&redlink=1.
