Response

[edit]

I have proposed two sessions: one on how to add images to commons from public sites, using Australian biota as examples, and the other on "turning blue into black" again with the examples being Australian biota. I am hoping that the first will help others add public images to articles, while the second will help others improve Wikipedia by linking more effectively to references and by linking within the articles they create and modify.

I am not a member of any minority group, unless being an older woman is considered such.

However, I will find it difficult to attend if my travel and accommodation is unfunded. I am currently in receipt of a Commonwealth old-age pension.
