Hi
We organized the event at Charleston, SC it was quite successful.
The event started with cutting of cake by Int Director Of MUSC Rebecca.
We had very good talk by Dr. Krug and Visa
We have more number of people so some went without T-shirt.
Even though it was a long weekend but people was there.
We were also connected with NYC group with skype.
It was really fun.
We discussed on vast area of wikipedia
People liked buttons more, than T-shirts.
I like to thanks to walling, jimmy and other people who were behind to this event.
Thanking you.
with best regards
Kaushlendra tripathi

Hi,
Could someone help to explain why all we get is silence?
If we won't get any merchandise from WMF for the meetup and the Wiki-X
event, then at least let us know so we won't keep waiting.
If the merchandise has been shipped to us, then we can hold another activity
for it since the shipping is already late and we couldn't make it for the
meetup tomorrow.
Thanks.
Regards,
Ted Chien

Hi Everyone,
One more event in India conducted at Engineering College
Bikaner. The snaps will be uploaded soon. About 40-50 guys joined it. It
was awesome to be there. I travelled about 120 miles for attending the
event. It started with the introduction to Open Source. Then a simple
introduction to Wikipedia by Sristhi Sethi. Some facts about Wikimedia
foundation from Supriya. One another guy ( I don't know his name but that
was the best part) asked some questions about Wikimedia Foundation and
distributed some goodies. A video message from Jimmy Wales. Editing Tutorial
about Wikipedia and Wiki commons by Apurva Tripathi. A discussion about
deletion policy of Wikipedia . Then finally a signature campaign. It was
great to be there. A new chapter of Wikipedia began at Bikaner. The one more
thing I would like to admit that we really missed the T-shirts. Is there any
way to ask for T-shirts so they can be distributed to organizers and
participants?

I would like to know if there will be any merchandise shipping to Wikimedia Taiwan. Our Winter Meetup and Wiki 10 celebration event will be held on this Sunday. If we don't receive the merchandise by tomorrow, then it would not be possible to give the merchandise to any Taiwanese Wikimedian attendees.
Thanks.

Ted Chien

I am afraid there is not much Steven can do at this point.
The Foundation *needs* (in my humble opinion) to revise ASAP the
merchandising agreements with the chapters so that those who used to produce
and "sell" their own gadgets can do this again without this shipping madness
which, by the way, does not seem very eco-friendly. Plus, chapters like the
Italian one have a tradition in designing and printing beautiful stuff and
should only be sustained in this, not blocked (again, my pov here).

It's been so awesome seeing the hundreds of events held to commemorate
Wikipedia Day around the world this year.
Wouldn't it be great if we made this an annual thing, as a
decentralized global counterpoint event on the opposite end of the
calendar to Wikimania?
In NYC we actually started live celebrations of Wikipedia Day last
year (along with Bangalore and Tel Aviv), and look forward to
repeating in 2012 along with whatever other global events would like
to join again.
Thanks,
Richard
