Brixton Wikimedia Meetup Number 1
[edit]6pm-8pm Tuesday 30th July 2024
Brixton Library, Brixton Oval, Brixton, London SW2 1JQ
This is the first of a monthly meetup at Brixton Library led by the library's Wikimedian Librarians,[unclear] open to all editors established, slightly confident and even the very new.
Location
[edit]Brixton Library is on Windrush Square, in central Brixton, 2 minutes walk from Brixton tube station (Victoria line), Brixton mainline train line and also served by many buses.
If you've never been to a Wikimedia Meetup before, it's just a very friendly, casual get-together where we can talk about our shared hobby. If you're a total newcomer to the wiki world, or just curious, you're welcome to come and talk to experienced wiki contributors.
Theme
[edit]You can edit anything you like in the session but if you need inspiration some of us will be looking at materials to celebrate South Asian Heritage Month.
