Re: [Gendergap] WikiWomen at Wikimania

2014-07-03 Thread Siko Bouterse
Traditionally it has been a WikiWomen's lunch, and we generally like to
have a dedicated space at the conference for it. Ellie tells me she's
looking into a room at the venue - I'd suggested lunchtime on Sunday August
10th, right before the gender workshops begin.

Is a meetup page the expected way for organizing/advertising it this year?

I think that'd be the easiest way to insert into the process for us.

We can do it any time of day - just state any preferences on the meetup
page and we'll do our best to find an appropriate space.

I like that time too (lunch on Sunday) if an adequate space to accommodate
a large group of women is available then. I expect that we will have a
large turn out this year if we do a good job of publicizing it.

Re: [Gendergap] WikiWomen at Wikimania

2014-07-05 Thread Pine W
Suggestions for publicity: recruit on Wikimania-l and also send individual
invites through personalized talk page invites, social networking, or
emails. Also, get Lila involved in recruiting if possible.

I've been surprised at how many more responses I get for requests for
participation in many types of wikiwork when I post requests or invites on
talk pages of contributors I know. Those same contributors are likely to be
watching noticeboards where I post general notices, but personally
requesting their participation seems to be far more effective.

I hope at least some of the WikiWomen at the lunch will take notes about
their discussions and encourage their peers to post ideas that emerge from
the discussion on public discussion boards, email lists, or IdeaLab.

Thanks,

Pine
