Event Wrap
The
The meeting was extremely well attended, particularly after some inadvertent publicity and interest from local print and radio media outlets in the days leading up to the event, causing registrations to double. In attendance were over twenty people, including a number of local administrators (including one the WP:WA admin team was not previously aware of), current and aspiring local editors, as well as members of the Western Australian Internet Association and UWA University Computer Club.
During the open forum discussion, attendees were able to engage in a lively and wide-ranging discussion on many relevant WP topics including inclusion and participation, RfA processes, the foundation and the future, as well as talking about some current and ongoing local project issues in the wider context of WP. This was not before a pertinent and joking point being raised regarding inter-capital rivalries and cautioning him on using the term Football in some states due to their meanings towards different football codes.
After some quick photo opportunities with the group, the meeting had regretably come to an end with Jimmy moving onto his next engagement, an educational conference being held in
It was noted afterwards that the meeting was extremely positive, with our thanks to
