Attendees
[edit]Add your name to this list if you can make it to our seventh meeting. People of all ages and all Wikimedia projects (including people who are just curious) are welcome! There's no need to stay all day if you're busy—you can stay for as long or as little as you like.

- Harry Mitchell (talk) 17:26, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
- Should be there by 1130 as usual. Hassocks5489 (talk) 22:16, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
- Probably, but later than 1130. Thryduulf (talk: meta · en.wp · wikidata) 14:27, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
- I'll try to be there, but will have to confirm closer to the time. Mike Peel (talk) 11:21, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
- I intend to come, but I've just gone to put it in my calendar, and I notice I have a 5k run in the morning at Wittering Beach, so I may be late. I don't run very fast these days. Well, I never ran very fast, but I tend to be even slower now! SilkTork (talk) 01:55, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
Potential
[edit]- Will confirm close to the time. Actually is dependent on how I feel as it's on my birthday and I spent the last two birthdays at home because I was sick, ha ha. Acalamari 15:57, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
- the wub "?!" 22:31, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
- Will confirm nearer the time. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:37, 8 November 2025 (UTC)
Interested but can't make it
[edit]- Busy all day. If it was Sunday, I'd be about. Ritchie333 (talk) 10:45, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
- We're staying for the weekend. It would be cool to meet up for breakfast on the Sunday at The Bright Helm. SilkTork (talk) 22:48, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
Agenda
[edit]Informal chitchat with no set agenda. We may go for a walk or visit a museum or similar after lunch. You can email Harry or Matt (Hassocks5489) if you're arriving later and want to know where we are.
If you have some ideas for discussion topics, please put them below.
- Is there any enthusiasm for regular meetups or more structured events in Brighton? Would people like to see meetups or events elsewhere?
- see also: Portsmouth meetup on 25 October
- Maybe we could visit Eastbourne in the warmer months?
- Local articles that could be written or improved. Brighton has plenty of interesting architecture and lots of potential good or featured articles.
About the meet up
[edit].JPG)
A social gathering for Wikimedia enthusiasts, where
- Some of us will drink beer, some will have soft drinks. Some might have lunch.
- We chat about Wikipedia and any other topics we fancy
- We might go for a walk (weather dependent!) and look at notable local features or move to another pub. Last time we went to the Royal Pavilion.
Mainly a casual social event. You can expect to meet some very keen Wikipedians but this is also an open invitation to anyone interested in finding out more about Wikipedia, other Wikimedia projects, projects re-using Wikipedia, and other collaborative wiki projects. Feel free to join us for as long or as little as you like.
Look for Wikipedia-themed hoodies or t-shirts. You can email Harry or Matt (Hassocks5489) if you're not sure.
Location and accessibility
[edit]The Bright Helm (Q88915773) is a Wetherspoons pub on West Street, between the railway station and the seafront. The station is just under ten minutes' walk away. West Street is served by many buses heading for the station; many other buses stop within walking distance. There is a multi-storey car park next door. Wifi and food are available in the pub.
We normally sit upstairs near Table 78 (if available) where it's a bit quieter but if steps are a problem for you, just say and we will make sure we get a table downstairs. There is step-free access to the pub itself. Feel free to reach out or use the talk page if you have any questions.
