Talk:Wikimedia Summit 2024

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Is there a Telegram channel...[edit]

... or any other means of keeping in touch with one another before and during the conference? (Please ping me if responding, I don't keep a watchlist on Meta.) - Jmabel (talk) 13:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jmabel: the invitation link to the Telegram Chat for the Summit was sent out to participants by email. Eva Martin (WMDE) (talk) 15:29, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Eva Martin (WMDE): Didn't reach me. (I was having some email problems 1-3 weeks ago.) Can someone please mail it to me on my account here? - Jmabel (talk) 17:20, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment on "Discussing the future of global affiliate gatherings"[edit]

Some comments on the post Wikimedia Summit Purpose 2 - "future of global affiliate gatherings"

  1. There seems to be a formatting error, such that there is a stray double bracket. Ping Eva Martin (WMDE) to see if there is a fix needed.
  2. I would suggest that the group of folks listed as looking into the future of affiliate gatherings engage members of the Wikimania Steering committee (of which I am one). Other than the Wikimedia Summit, Wikimania is the effort that deals with the most logistics relevant to what might be needed for an affiliates meeting or a Global Council meeting. We consider things like travel proximity to our community, costs/scholarships, regional rotation, trust/safety issues, and visa considerations. Therefore, we are very happy to be involved with this conversation as soon as possible, and have already started discussing within the Wikimania committee how the next few Wikimania locales could possibly support functions similar to what Wikimedia Summit/Berlin has in the past few years. The chairs of the committee are Phoebe and Iopensa, so feel free to get in touch with them, or I can relay any messages. Ping to FULBERT, NANöR, SRientjes, Shahadusadik, TheAafi, Olaniyan Olushola, Windblown29, Emmanuelle Guebo (Wikimedia username?)

Cheers. - Fuzheado (talk) 02:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leaving 1 to Eva, and have answered 2 elsewhere at Talk:Future of Affiliate Gatherings. Best regards, ─ Aafī (talk) 03:01, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Where to link conference reports[edit]

Is there a page here where people can link their conference reports to make them visible to one another? I have mine at Cascadia Wikimedians/2024 Wikimedia Summit report, but I wouldn't expect much anyone to find it there without my linking that. I suspect (or at least hope) people from a lot of other affiliates have similar write-ups. - Jmabel (talk) 17:51, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is anyone still answering here? - Jmabel (talk) 13:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Jmabel, I added your report to this sub page. Eva Martin (WMDE) (talk) 15:13, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Podcast interview series[edit]

For anyone interested, I recorded some interviews in the breaks and are publishing these as podcasts on Wikipediapodden. The first episode is here and the series can be followed on the tag wikimedia-summit-2024 (should be possible to subscribe to in a podcast app). I think there will be 7-8 episodes in total, coming out in the next 2 weeks. Ainali talkcontributions 09:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Ainali, I added the link to your podcast serie to this sub page. Eva Martin (WMDE) (talk) 15:14, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
