Estevoaei (Adrián Estévez Iglesias)

gl.wikipedia; also Commons and Wikidata

Outcome

Option 3: New Creation: I made new articles related to Cape Town, such as gl:Crise da auga en Cidade do Cabo (Wikimania edit-a-thon Water sustainability) or gl:Universidade de Cidade do Cabo, and some articles about southafrican women, such as gl:Graça Machel, gl:Patricia de Lille or gl:Helen Zille.

User:Theklan (Galder González), from eu:wiki, told me about 1.000 artikulu 12-16 urteko ikasleentzat, and some users in Galician Wikipedia (User:Elisardojm is coordinating the process) are translating it into Galician Language.

User:Vanbasten_23 (Ángel Obregón), from es:wiki, told me about his bot in WikiData to add descriptions in Galician language.

Connections

I presented a poster about 100WikiDays: Women Writers. I met User:Spiritia (Vassia Atanassova), the creator of #100WikiDays!

I also gave a presentation with User:Rodelar (Rubén Ojeda) and User:Virginia_Diez about WikiTakes Rural Areas. There were about 35-40 people, and they made us really interesting questions!

I also met people from Spanish Wikipedia (from Colombia, Argentina, Perú or Bolivia) and Portuguese Wikipedia (from Brazil).

Anything else

It was my first WikiMania, and I've been very surprised about it. I really enjoyed it, but a room in a cheaper hotel would be fine, even it would not be in the same venue of the event.
