Hi all, As a few of you know, I have a fellowship in the Wikimedia Foundation's Community Department, working for Chief Community Officer Zack Exley on a variety of projects. One of these projects is making Wikipedia's 10th anniversary one to remember by supporting you (Wikimedians) who want to celebrate online and off.
To that end, we've opened up a new space for collaboration at http://ten.wikipedia.org/ . Many thanks to the editors who've already showed up to participate. For who haven't had a chance to explore it yet, we started the wiki for four core activities, which are outlined in our FAQ (http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAQ ). They are: 1. Gathering a single, detailed list of events that we can point interested people to. 2. Hosting some interesting ways to reflect on the anniversary online, across Wikipedia communities. If you have ideas for celebrating, this is the place to share them. 3. Providing resources for organizers, including a press kit, freely- licensed designs that can be localized, and instructions on how to get a free set of t-shirts, stickers, buttons etc. for your event. 4. A place to document everything. This wiki will be a great place to look back and see what we did to celebrate our first double digit anniversary. Hopefully that gives you a better idea of what we're working on. As usual, please be bold and join in! If you have questions that can't be answered on the wiki or mailing list (https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikix-l), I am your best point of contact. I'd especially like to encourage current or potential event organizers to get in touch. Thanks for reading, Steven Walling [[User:Steven (WMF)]] on ten.wikipedia.org _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
