This page serves as a space for early discussions and planning regarding proposed WikiConference India 2026. Building on the spirit of collaboration from past iterations, the aim is to gather ideas, inputs, and interest from Wikimedians across India and the South Asian region.

The conversations here will help:

  • Reconnect with community members and affiliates who wish to be involved.
  • Explore possible themes, formats, and focus areas for the conference.
  • Identify volunteer roles and working groups.
  • Share thoughts on partnerships, resources, and logistical needs.

This is an open conversation space; all Wikimedians are welcome to share suggestions, raise questions, and express interest in contributing. Your input will help shape the conference's direction and ensure it reflects the needs and aspirations of our communities.

Steering Committee formation for WCI upcoming iterations

[edit]

Following the suggestion received from the Wikimedia Foundation's conference fund committee for Wiki Conference India (WCI) we are planning to form the Steering Committee (SC) to provide long-term vision, coordination, and continuity for upcoming iterations of the national conference.

  • The goal is to ensure strategic planning, community representation, and sustainability beyond a single event cycle.
