Queering Wikipedia 2023 conference

Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group and the organizing team of Queering Wikipedia is delivering the Queering Wikipedia 2023 Conference for LGBT+ Wikimedians and allies, as a hybrid, bilingual and trans-local event. It is online on 12, 14 and 17 May, the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia #IDAHOBIT, with offline events at around 10 locations on 5 continents in the 5-day span as QW2023 Nodes.

The online program is delivered as a series of keynotes, panels, presentations, workshops, lightning talks and creative interventions, starting on Friday noon (UTC) with the first keynote of Dr Nishant Shah entitled: I spy, with my little AI — Wikiway as a means to disrupt the ‘dirty queer’ impulses of emergent AI platforms. Second keynote is at Sunday’s closure by Esra’a Al Shafei, Wikimedia Foundation’s Board of Trustees vice chair, entitled: Digital Public Spaces for Queer Communities.

If you have been an active Wikimedian or enthusiast, supporting LGBT+ activities or if you identify as part of the larger LGBT+ community and allies in Wikimedia, please join us in advancing this thematic work. We encourage you to join online or in person with fellow Wikimedians if it is easy and safe to do so. Our working languages are English and Spanish, with possible local language support at sites of Nodes.

Registration for the online event is free and is open until Wednesday May 10th at 18:00 UTC, for safety protocol. Late event registration approval and event access denial is at the discretion of organizers.

More information, and registration details, may be found on Meta at QW2023

@NikosLikomitros That`s a great news! Thank you :) This was meant as a workshop, but I will try to re-write it into lecture. How long it should be? Klarqa (talk) 15:18, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Wikimedia CEE Meeting 2025 submission

Dear Klara,

On behalf of the Wikimedia CEE Meeting 2025 programme committee, I am pleased to inform you that your submission titled “Welcoming New Wikipedians: Best Practices for Easy and Engaging Onboarding” has been accepted as a lightning talk. In case you have any additional requests or questions, do not hesitate to contact me or any other committee member.

NikosLikomitros (talk) 18:28, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello @NikosLikomitros ! Thank you for an update, I am very happy :) How long do the lighting talks are? It was meant to be longer, so now I think have to choose only one example (just a quick thought). Klarqa (talk) 15:19, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi Klara. The lightning talks last 5 minutes. I understand it's a different format than the originally proposed. You have to be concise, fast and quick in what you will be presenting because they last 5 minutes. Looking forward to see you in Thessaloniki. NikosLikomitros (talk) 19:05, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello @NikosLikomitros, congratulations on publishing the program!

Is it still possible to change the titles of my presentation and adjust the description a little bit?

All of my topics have been proposed previously as other type than they are now, and I would like the audience to be quite sure what to expect:)

May I edit it by myself? Klarqa (talk) 07:22, 5 September 2025 (UTC)

Klarqa and hello again here. i can see that you have edited the page, so i guess this request is no longer relevant. sorry for getting to it only now! --アンタナナ 18:07, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
