That was the original idea behind Wikipedia Day, as far as I know! I see no reason why we wouldn't revisit the event annually on this day.
In addition to having a "big day" once a year, I generally love the idea of having more "event kits" for different kinds of purposes that we can ship throughout the year (together with continually improving best practices, repositories of visualizations and outreach materials, etc.). We'll need to do some internal post-morteming on this experience to see if this is a habit we can get into more regularly. But I for one certainly see ten.wikipedia.org as a great pilot for supporting distributed events around the world.
Throwing in some general comments: Thanks to Steven and all who helped with it, and all who organized, attended or supported celebrations. The event in SF was awesome, and the photos from the world-wide events show the incredible energy and strength of Wikimedia in the year 2011. Please, folks, upload more images to Commons :-)
Cheers, Erik
