Google registration form not live

Checkingfax: I clicked on RSVP and got "The form Bay Area WikiSalon is no longer accepting responses." Are you still working on it? Funcrunch (talk) 05:45, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply

Hi, Funcrunch. Yes, just started working on it and had not really advertised it yet, but it is open for RSVPs now. Would you like to display some of your photos on a big laptop on a countertop or such? Something that folks could scroll through? Got any other ideas to make this fun? If so, please add them to the event page.
Also, please add yourself to the page as a volunteer photographer if you are willing to do that and define the scope of your contribution. Cheers! {{u|

Signed up to take pix. I'd be happy to display some of my Commons photos if a laptop and display will be provided. Funcrunch (talk) 02:55, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit-a-thon

I can run an edit-a-thon group. I have a list of articles at User:Dreamyshade/In the news articles (topics recently in the news that are marked with needs-improvement tags) that I'd be happy to work with people on editing, including helping newcomers get started.

Sure! I moved the list to Wikipedia:Meetup/SF/Wikipedia Day 2017/Editathon and updated the page to reflect this. Thanks! Dreamyshade (talk) 00:05, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi
Checkingfax, I moved this info into the main page - feel free to adjust if you'd like it formatted a different way. Dreamyshade (talk) 02:04, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply

Open-Space sessions

Hi All,

I'm planning to facilitate two open space sessions on

b) using "Citoid" - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid - to cite references re Wikipedia and Wikidata,

Hi,

Photo exhibit

@

Checkingfax: What do you have in mind for the photo exhibit? If we're having an exhibit featuring San Francisco photogs already, I feel like it would be redundant to have a separate display of my own. Of course I have lots of pix from the WikiSalons, but also from a number of other events around the city (and elsewhere); here are my Commons categories...

Checkingfax: Thanks, I'll put together a slideshow with some pix I took in San Francisco (including at Wikipedia 15 and the salons) over the last year. Funcrunch (talk) 02:41, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply

Checkingfax: Should I include some pix from WikiConference North America too? They're mostly just people speaking at podiums, but I might find a couple that are more visually interesting... Funcrunch (talk) 02:43, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply

Checkingfax in case you want to add any to the main page. Also pinging Ijon who was very keen on getting pix of the pre- and post-edited birthday cake ;-) Funcrunch (talk) 04:31, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply
