Wikipedia:Bay Area WikiSalon February 2017
Bay Area WikiSalon series | ||
---|---|---|
Periodically, on a last Wednesday evening of the month, wiki and open-source enthusiasts meet up to mingle, munch, collaborate or learn about new projects and ideas. At each WikiSalon we plan a brief formal presentation; some will help orient people new to the wiki/open-source world, with others geared to more experienced people. Many presentations will have broad appeal to non-wiki/non-open-source folks. We hope you will join us! Note: We are extremely inclusive – broadly construed – plus we adhere to the friendly place policies of the Wikimedia Foundation.

- General announcements from the floor: any announcement that you wish to make
Plus we will have:
- Optional Open Space Activity: Introductory Art+Feminism edit-a-thon, facilitated by Niki Korth (nikikana) and Britta Gustafson (Dreamyshade)
