Talk:Meetup/London/148

More visibility on Wikimedia Space

Hello, I'd like to suggest adding this event to the calendar of events on Wikimedia Space. We're seeing about a thousand daily page views with over 500 users at this point. Users receive summary emails (not unlike mailing list digests) that include new events as they are added. You can login with your Wikimedia account and the process takes only a few minutes. If you need help, let me know and I'd be glad to lend a hand. Good luck with future events! CKoerner (WMF) (talk) 21:18, 29 October 2019 (UTC)

I am sorry, but that site is so JavaScript-heavy that it slows my PC to a crawl. Besides which, we already publicise the London meetups at:

• Meetup/UK/Footer list
• Template:Meetup list
• w:Template:Meetup-UK
• w:Wikipedia:Meetup/Calendar
• w:Template:UK Wikipedia meetups
• w:Wikipedia:Meetup/UK
• w:MediaWiki:Gadget-geonotice-list.js
• wmuk:Events

which some people are saying is too many places to keep updated. --Redrose64 (talk; at English Wikipedia) 07:44, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

I hear you on the too many places to keep updated. I don't know how folks across the movement can memorize all these templates. :) That's actually one of the problems we're trying to solve with Space. A central location that can be updated once and syndicated if need be. We're not there yet, which is why you are correct, it is Another Place to Update. While we're working on the prototype feedback like this is much appreciated. Thanks for leaving a note. CKoerner (WMF) (talk) 15:37, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
